Wir hatten im Pumba-Private-Game-Reserve eine herausragende Zeit. Wir haben neben den Game-Drives auch an einer Walking-Safari teilgenommen. Die Guides waren sehr erfahren und haben uns wirklich tolle Tierbegegnungen ermöglicht. Danke Sapho und Cleo! Das Essen im Restaurant war fantastisch und das gesamte Personal wirklich super freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Pumba Lodge ist eine der schönsten Anlagen, in denen wir jemals waren. Die Aussicht aus dem Zimmer mit Terasse auf das Wasserloch war einfach wunderschön. Wenn Sie die Möglichkeit haben, hier ein paar Tage zu verbringen, dann sollten Sie es unbedingt tun.

We had a lovely stay at Pumba Water Lodge. The staff were amazing, super helpful and friendly. Mzee, our ranger, made our stay unforgettable, he is well versed in the bush and has great knowledge regarding the animals. We learnt a lot from him and he delivered great sightings. My partner was treated on his birthday, with heartfelt singing by the lodge personnel and he even received a delicious freshly baked cake with candles. It was truly a special treat. The food was really great and there was more than enough! Limeze and Mzee at the lodge really stood out and made us feel at home. Thank you everyone at Pumba for our amazing experience! We cannot wait to come visit again.
