Guest Companion

Your lodge. Your brand. Your guest app.

A guest companion for safari lodges and reserves — wildlife, services, and your story, under your name in the App Store and Google Play.

Tusker Trails · Lodge Companion — White Label

The opportunity

Built for private lodges & reserves

Guests expect a companion. Your brand should own it.

“One app under your name — from game drives to dining — without building software yourself.”

Brand on every screen

App name, icon, splash, and colours match your lodge. Guests download your app — not a third-party brand.

Useful in the bush

Offline-first wildlife checklist with customizable animals, and guest services that work when signal does not.

You stay in control

Update dining, drives, guides, and hub content from the App Portal. Guests sync when they have Wi-Fi.

White label

Looks like you. Runs for your guests.

One proven product, configured per lodge: store listings, branding, map area, and content — delivered as your own iOS and Android apps.

Your store presence

Published under your Apple and Google developer accounts. Tusker Trails handles build and submit as invited administrator.

Your visual identity

Primary and accent colours, logo, splash, and branding.

Your content all over

About the lodge, getting here, packing, etiquette, malaria notes, seasons, dining, spa, kids club, conservation, and more.

Your map footprint

Configured map area for your lodge and reserve — so guests explore your landscape, not a generic park app.

Partnership

From briefing to guests' phones

You own the store accounts and the guest relationship. We configure, build, and keep the product current — while your team edits day-to-day content in the Lodge Portal.

    Production & maintenance

Partnership

Ideal for private safari lodges and reserves that want a branded companion without building an app team.
