Glück und die wertvolle von unserem Guide haben uns ermöglicht, die Bige Five zu sehen. Es waren sehr eindrückliche Pirschfahrten. Der Preis für das Paket "all inclusiv" hat sich gelohnt.
Wir hatten eine Suite gebucht, leider mit Nebengeräuschen eines Generators. Nachts waren die Geräusche jedoch nicht zu hören.

Great place
The food was excellent. The bed was comfortable. The game drives were brilliant. Our guide, Ozzie, was very knowledgeable about all the animals and plants. He made sure everyone understood and could hear him well. Really nice guy too.
The room was a bit dark.

A luxury small hotel located in a stunning private game reserve.
A luxury small hotel located in a stunning private game reserve. In a beautiful location by the river you can relax on the deck and soak up the scenery. Two game drives per day (6:00 am (ouch) and 4:00 pm) where you can see the Big Five and many other species up close in their natural habitat. Our guide, Lee, was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job. You can also watch animals coming to the watering hole at the rear of the Lodge and there is a boat trip to the sea. The staff were fantastic and entertained us with traditional songs and dancing. An all-round wonderful experience.
This was our second stay and we thought the food, although good, was not as good as our first visit.

Must be the go to game reserve in SA. Fantastic!
Fantastic experience, Leigh was the perfect guide, (and maker of hot chocolate!)showing us the big 5 and the ugly 5! We had exciting drives especially when a young female elephant decided to join us for our afternoon G&T stop! The baby Rhino was another high point. The staff at the lodge can’t do enough for you, providing endless delicious meals and hot towels when you get back from the drives. Very spoiling and a magical experience. Thank you everyone at River Lodge!

Absolutely wonderful stay. Our driver Leigh was excellent - thank you! The whole team are brilliant, the location on the river is stunning and we went via boat for part of one drive. Saw heaps of animals on safari. An unforgettable experience.
