We spent two fantastic days in this beautiful game reserve - more specifically in the lodge called "Safari Lodge". On four game drives, our ranger, Kulani, showed us more animals than we had ever imagined to be able to see in such a short time. So, there was hardly enough time to enjoy all the luxury of the safari huts... more

Leeuwenbosch It was the last part of our holiday when we arrived at Amakhala Game Reserve – Leeuwenbosch so we were excited to see the animals. We decided on this Game reserve because it was in a malaria free zone and it had a children's program included however this was not the case with the later. As for the reserve... more
