Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location was amazing to see all the wild life. We saw the Big 5 within the first 2 days. Every single staff was highly professional. The lodging was simply luxurious and amazing. Great attention to detail from start till the end of our stay. Free shuttle to and fro to airport. We were upgraded to the Mvubu Cottage - we had a private chef and all guests also had a butler, a tracker and a guide for the game drives.
Negative: Nothing. I loved everything.
Summary: Highly recommend! Don’t miss out on this amazing experience
