The ultimate safari experience. We enjoyed taking part in a lot of game drives amd saw a lot of animals. Next time we would go to the lower part of Entabeni Wildlife Reservate, though, because we were driving down every drive and used a lot of time in the ravine between the lower and upper part.

Etwas in die Jahre gekommen ...

... trotzdem für einen kurzen Aufenthalt in Ordnung. Das Personal war sehr nett. Das Zimmer war großzügig und abends war im Bett die Heizdecke eingeschaltet. Holz für den Kamin wurde aber erst am 2. Abend bereit gestellt. Das Essen im Restaurant war ausreichend, aber nichts Besonderes. Die Pirschfahrten waren gut organisiert und informativ. Abends gab es unterwegs einen Sundowner, morgens aber weder Kaffee noch Tee. Insgesamt hatten wir einen angenehmen Aufenthalt von 2 Tagen. Eine Luxuslodge ist bei dem Preis nicht zu erwarten.

Experiência agradável para a familia

Distancia de Joanesburgo: 3 horas de viagem de carro. O servico foi sempre muito bom; a atenção do staff excelente! O Ranger, Obri, muito bom e atencioso conosco, em todos os passeios que fizemos, com o intuito de podermos ver o maior número de animais. Acomodações limpas e confortáveis. Ficamos nas tendas do wildlife. Sem luxo, como era a proposta, mas com toda a comodidade. Andamos bastante para ver os animais, mas vimos leões, elefante, rinoceronte, girafa, zebra, gnus, hipopótamo e varios tipos de antilopes. Foi uma boa experiência.

Mooi maar ‘s winters ook een koud verblijf

We waren hier half juli, dus winter in Zuid-Afrika. We zaten in Ravineside lodge. Verblijf was mooi maar wel vrij koud. Lodges zijn niet goed ingesteld op deze kou, al hadden de bedden wel een elektrisch deken wat het slapen aangenaam maakte. Het park Entabeni wordt door een berg in tweeën gesplitst. Op deze locatie (Ravineside) vind je NIET de big 5, je kunt beter aan de andere kant van de berg zitten. Met een game drive duurt het nl. een half uur voordat je in het gedeelte met de big 5 bent.

Accomodation dated, Safari Experience exceptional

Accommodation itself is a bit dated at Ravineside Lodge, but clean with amazing views. All staff members were exceptional. Food was good - simple home cooked meals served as a buffet. The safari experience was exceptional. Having been to Kruger, Pillansberg and many others,this game reserve is a level up! Scenic beauty of mountains (leopards, duikers, birds of pray), lakes (hipos, crocodiles) and grasslands (lions, cheetas, elephants and copious amounts of zebras and all species of antelope) coupled with exceptional game rangers knowledge makes this place stand out. I cannot recommend this Entabeni high enough despite the slightly dated accommodation.

가장 제대로 된 사파리를 즐길 수 있는 곳입니다. 사파리하기 전에는 시원한 리치 쥬스를, 신나게 사파리하고 돌아오면 따뜻한 핫초코를 주는데 너무 행복했어요. 약간 추운 날씨였지만, 롯지에 전기장판이 비치되어 있어서 푹 잘 수 있었어요.
