Safety

Madikwe, in our opinion, is a safe place for visitors. South African parks and reserves maintain a very high standard regarding safety and crime inside these areas is very unlikely. There is always some crime in cities, but as long as you take normal safety precautions when visiting urban places on your tour, there is nothing to worry about (see ‘Cities & Other Urban Areas: Safety Precautions’ below). The vast majority of travelers in South Africa don’t have any incidents during their visit.

Malaria-Free & Vaccinations
