Wir waren zwei Tage in der Lodge, welche erst seit gut einem Jahr in Betrieb ist ( vorher war es eine Hunting Lodge) Das Paket umfasst AI und zwei Game Drives pro Tag. Essen war sehr gut, Lodge ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber sehr sauber. Schöner Pool. Am zweiten Abend gab es Boma, welches ausgezeichnet und sehr stimmig war. Getränke waren jederzeit und in großer Auswahl vorhanden. Die Game Drives finden jeweils um 6 Uhr früh un 16 Uhr Nachmittags statt. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen und das ganze Personal war sehr zuvorkommend.

Fantastisches Essen und sehr gute drinks erstklassiger Wein. Diese Unterkunft macht den Urlaub unvergesslich! Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit, kompetent und setzt jeden Wunsch um. Ich komme definitiv wieder - etwas negatives fällt mich nicht ein!
