Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Great location, river views, evening firepit, 2 x safaris per day included, wild dogs, leopards, lions, meals included (all good), great hosts (thank you Frank and Sabine), great communication during booking and prior to arrival, wonderful staff. Hopefully return with my wife before too long.
Negative: Loved it all. If I had one recommendation, it would be to sell some branded merch eg sunhats, t-shirts, fleeces, fridge magnets, whatever, so we can advertise back home 'Ooooh, Msandile River Lodge? Where's that...?' Perhaps they already do, we didn't actually ask. Or not. Because who needs the cost/hassle of organising that, right?
Summary: Great value, great hosts.
