Guest Stories

We spent 4 nights in the Honeymoon Treehouse and it was the most magical experience. Waking up to elephants at the waterhole is something we will never forget. The staff treated us like family.

James & Sarah Mitchell

Baobab Ridge exceeded every expectation. The game drives were incredible — we saw all the Big Five in two days. The food was world-class. Already planning our return trip.

Nomvula Khumalo

We brought the whole family for a week. The kids loved the Family Cottage and the junior ranger programme. It is rare to find a lodge that caters so well to both adults and children.
