Discover About Avula: Number 1 Lodges in South Africa's Amazing Wilderness

About Avula: Avula means open journey, and Avula Safaris is more than a collection of private game reserves. It’s an authentic African hunting experience like none other.

It’s an invitation to get lost. To find yourself. To seek beyond the known and hunt beyond the kill. Avula is more than a destination. It’s the start of a much greater journey for the adventurer in you to adventure true.

‘Avula’ is derived from a traditional African Zulu word meaning ‘open’. About Avula Safaris offers you an open journey – the opportunity to make your experience whatever you want it to be!

An authentic experience like no other

An authentic experience like no other, About Avula lodges are based in several select locations across the breathtakingly wild and untamed landscape of South Africa, next to fresh rivers, streams, and grassy bushveld across miles of semi-mountainous terrain – unspoiled land tended by honest, hardworking hands over time. It’s a tradition we are committed to continuing every day to ensure it remains for future generations.
