The lodge was great, in a good location, and the staff was very helpful, but when it comes to booking safari drives, beware of a MASSIVE OVERCHARGE (more than double). We booked both a sunset safari and a full day with the lodge. When we arrived we were told that the sunset safari would be run by the park and we needed to drive to the gate and meet our guide there. The park's sunset safari is one of the cheapest ones (523R / person) and it doesn't include some of the perks of the other options, like sunset wine. We were shocked that the lodge charged us more than double for booking the sunset safari (1,050R/person) and even more shocked that Candice, the lodge's manager, tried to excuse it by "we have to send people to book for you and it's time that they are not working" when you can book it easily on the park's website. Check your prices and don't trust the lodge to be fair and honest. If it wasn't for the dishonesty and greed, we would've given them a much higher rating.
