Reviews from previous guests
“From the time we arrived until we begrudgingly left two days later, the staff at Springbok Lodge went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. Thank you so much to our guide Nadine for the stunning game drives – your knowledge and sense of humour was refreshing and also for taking such good care of the seniors! The perfect venue to switch off for a while and be treated so well by all the staff. Hats off to you all during these difficult, uncertain times!” wrote Debbie Sharp on their TripAdvisor page.
SharksSupporter1 added; “Very friendly and personal service from check-in to check-out which makes for a memorable overall experience. Game drives were good and (except for the elusive leopard) all the Big 5 seen a few times. Raging storm on the first night but we stuck it out and sat on the game viewer and got soaked but were up again the next day. Food good and tent clean and comfortable. We will go again.”
