Kleine Lodge mit nur 3 Zelten, herrlich im Einklang mit der Natur mitten im Amakkhala Game Reserve gelegen.. Leckeres lokales Essen. Sehr freundliche und herzliche Mitarbeiter, die alles dafür tun, die Zeit zu einem unvergesslichen Abenteuer zu machen. Besonders die familiäre Atmosphäre hat uns unglaublich gut gefallen ❤️

Alles war perfekt für uns ❤️

"Fascinerend"

9.0

Zeer goede game drives, vooral de walking safari.zeer vriendelijk en competent personeel.leuke sfeer in het kamp

Het is een open kamp en dus kan er ‘s nachts een olifant naast je tent staan.niet voor gevoelige zielen dus.

"Bucket list Amakhala trip"

10.0

Im not sure where to start! The location is incredible as it is in the game reserve and unfenced, but we never felt unsafe as they have thought of everything (regular checks, whistles in the rooms) and to hear elephant and lion roars whilst relaxing in your private hot tub is an experience like no other. The lack of electricity didn't bother us at all, in fact we found it delightful to have a detox. Having said that, you do get patches of phone signal, for me on o2 from the UK, this was typically in higher areas when we stopped for sundowners which meant I was able to send photos of the incredible sightings to friends and family. We did the overnight trail and cave experience which i cannot recommend enough. Riyan and Miguel were knowledgeable and made us feel safe. It was amazing to learn about the smaller things that you wouldn't ever see on a game drive. Getting to the cave is accessible with a degree of challenge. The set up once we got down there was slick with Riaan cooking an epic braai, open fire, wine and talking as we stargazed. The staff at the camp also work tirelessly to make this luxury. Coming back from an evening game drive in the dark and being greeted with an amarula hot chocolate and enthusiasm on what we saw that day (especially by Nick who was so knowledgeable and great to talk to) and to find our hot tub fires roaring and hot water bottles tucked under the duvet are all extra touches we weren't expecting but made the trip feel that much more exclusive. Finally a huge shout out to our main guide Tinash, whom we nicknamed 'Tenacious Tinash' as he was so dedicated to finding us the very best park sightings to the best of his abilities (it's nature afterall). He managed to secure us the best sighting of a female cheetah and her tiny 4 cubs trotting down the path at dusk as she found somewhere to tuck them in for the night.

"We simply loved it!"

10.0

We loved every bit of the experience. The game walk was one of the best and most interesting experiences we've ever had, highly recommend. All staff was extremely friendly and we felt very spoiled. The tent has everything and more than we needed and sitting in the hot tub at night will remain unforgettable. Huge thanks to everyone at Quatermains for making this experience possible.
