Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: We stayed 2 nights here and loved everything about our stay and more, the executive one bedroom suite was wow. It was so spacious, fresh and had great views from terrace and big windows which we saw monkeys and nyalas going past, the lodge has great facilities, the staff were so friendly and welcoming especially Rudolph engaging in chat during meal times, the food was great and the game drives were a highlight! Seeing the animals in the wild and having George and Gabriel as our tracker and guide really made the experience. We loved the thrill of every drive and not knowing what we were going to see. We loved hearing all the sounds of animals at night when back at the lodge and the views and sitting areas around the lodge. The night guard (didn't get his name) was so friendly and funny had great chats when being escorted back to our room. I celebrated my birthday the day we arrived and got presented with a gluten free cake after dinner and the staff singing, such a special memory. You have every chance to see the big five here, it's a beautiful reserve and well maintained. Also a private dinner was set up for us by a roaring fire on our final night, it was such a lovely surprise and a special way to have some time just us two and reflect on our unforgettable adventure here. Thank you river lodge, we hope to return to SA in the future ♥️
Negative: That our stay came to an end and that we had to come home
Summary: A once in a lifetime experience!
