An absolutely magical safari experience, which exceeded our already high expectations. The driver, Jika, and tracker, Caswell, were so kind, patient, knowledgeable, protective, friendly and so funny! They listened to what we wanted on each of our 5 game drives and tailored our each 3-hour trip to deliver everything we wanted to see, along with lots of extras. Yes, we saw the Big 5 (all in one drive!!) but it was the little touches, such as explaining the importance of buffalo thorns to the local culture, sharing insights into the trees and bushes as well as the animals and birds. Buffalo FaceBook sticks in the memory as does finding water in an aardvarks digging in a dry stream bed. Thank you so much you guys! On top of that the Lodge itself was 5*. The rooms, eating areas, pool, bar and bomo were all exceptionally well presented and looked after. Our AC room was very comfortable, and so close to the bush with nyala antelope wondering past within 5m of our back window! The food was excellent and they did a great job of providing special catering for one of us who is lactose intolerant. All the staff were extremely attentive, helpful and friendly. Special thanks to Erik for keeping a particularly cheeky vervet monkey from stealing our breakfast rolls!!
