"Fabulous Safari experience"

10.0

Fantastic stay at Bukela From the first moment the staff were superb with such a high level of customer service and friendliness The tented accommodation was excellent and fully met our needs The food was also excellent and plenty of it, particularly breakfast after the game drive, and my partner’s dietary requirements were met with no fuss And of course what can I say about the game drives, great wildlife viewing and such a knowledgeable guide whose respect for the animals was great to see - and his driving skills were brilliant - saw 4 of the big 5 and so many memorable moments; rhinos at sunset, elephants in the mist, cheetah and cubs feeding on a kill, and finally the lions sat gazing over the plains Stayed for 3 nights which was perfect - highly recommended

Die Bukela Game Lodge im Amakhala Game Reserve war sehr schön und ein außergewöhnliches Erlebnis, dass sich definitiv lohnt. Die Game Drives sind super und die Ranger sind sehr freundlich und wissen über alle Tiere Bescheid. Wir bedanken uns ganz herzlich bei unserem Ranger Stan.

"An Amazing Experience"

10.0

Our stay at Bukela Lodge was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome with their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail. Every member of the team went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and well looked after. The accommodation was outstanding — beautifully designed, spacious, spotless, and perfectly blended into the natural surroundings. It was the ideal combination of luxury and relaxation. The food was exceptional throughout our stay. Every meal was beautifully prepared, full of flavour, and presented to perfection. Dining at the lodge became a highlight in itself, and the chefs truly deserve special recognition for the quality and variety of the cuisine. The game drives were a true highlight of the trip. Our ra ger Stan was knowledgeable, passionate, and had an amazing ability to spot wildlife while making every drive exciting and informative. Their enthusiasm for the bush and the animals made the experience even more special. Thank you to everyone at Bukela Lodge for creating such wonderful memories. We cannot wait to return and would highly recommend this incredible lodge to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience.
