Babohi at Qwabi Private Game Reserve by Newmark

It is a difficult place to get to from the airport. Terrible road for the last 23 K. First impressions are good. Very pleasant reception area and grounds. Our accommodation was also first class and kept immaculate by the housekeeping staff. We were there for 8 days with a Titan/Saga Group and the price and description of the holiday suggested a five star experience. Unfortunately it fell short of that in a number of ways. In particular the standard of the meals was generally disappointing, and nowhere near five star. The game drives were as good as they could be in that the driver/ guides were very good and the vehicles were comfortable, but because the animals are kept inside a very large fenced area and the balance of the species is carefully monitored it all feels a bit contrived compared with previous safari experiences we have had. In between the morning and afternoon drives is a period of around six hours each day when there is not much to do. There is a small pool and spa treatments are available but there no towns or settlements within reach, so good books to read are essential. The staff were lovely, but the overall lasting impression of the holiday is one of disappointment and poor value for money.

The trip started from JNB Airport it is a long drive , I could say 3 to 4 hrs drive . We have a water and snacks break stoppage halfway the sky was clear so as it was winter we just open the window just for fresh air no A/C needed . About 36 Kilometers is a dirt road but very drivable . The nicest part about South African game reserve and park is that in most of the lodge u do not need a game drive to see all this wild animal as u drive to the lodge u are likely to spot two or three wild animals so as usual we spotted Buffalo and so many bucks . The room fantastic the game reserve is just presume will recommend any day .

Wonderful Lodge right in the middle of Limpopo. Nice game drives lots of animals. Nice scenery. Very spacious luxury hotel. Where is a wonderful pool outlook to the animals - super bedding, very attentive staff - a dusty road takes about an hour to get here

Wonderful family-orientated bush venue.Fantastic staff,excellent food and beautiful scenery.Highly recommended for families wanting to experience the bush with children.Close proximity to Johannesburg.Malaria free reserve.
