Had a great stay at trails camp. A very nice and rustic camp hidden in the bush. Comfortable tents, good bed and amazing food. Staff is very helpful and nice. The guides where super. We had some bad luck with the weather, rain at night, cloudy days with hard winds, but Allyson and Daryl made the absolute best of it by focusing more on spiders, insects, birds etc. I would definitely like to come back.

The staff at Phelwana are simply the best. Katie and her team were very accommodating and especially helpful when we had a minor medical emergency. They were the family away from home we needed!

It was the entire immersive private reserve safari experience, every turn one would have encounters with giraffes, water buffalo, rhinos, white lions, impala, zebras, baboons, and the list goes on. The safari leader, Leonardo ,was truly impressive with his knowledge about flora, fauna, and the animals. Staff were quite pleasant and responsive and love the conversations about Africa with Francisco. It’s centrally located with the airport minutes away and the town also conveniently close.

    The property was well maintained and well managed. The food was a 10 out of 10 with a lot of variety. The location was incredible with all the wild animals visible from all areas of the property. The rooms were incredibly insulated feeling cool during the heat of the day and warm in the cold nights. The game drives were fantastic with exceptional guides who used their knowledge of the bush to put us right where the animals were every time. We were able to see the big 5 multiple times throughout our stay as well as a wide range of other animals

    MOTSWARI exceeded all our expectations! We loved absolutely everything about it. I would like to emphasize the beautiful location and facilities of the entire camp and our bungalow. All six trips out into the South African animal kingdom were also incredibly beautiful. We saw leopards every day. And we also saw all the other big five and many more. Our guides Lola and Lot were extremely experienced and friendly. Thank you so much for these unforgettable days! We will definitely be back!

    It was an amazing experience, not only the safari itself but also the staff that created an immersive experience. We were there for 4 nights and we had dinner on different locations within the camp with great (and healthy) food and we were taken care of from a-z.

    Breakfast was very good. There was a standard menu and a daily special. The food quality was very good and the service exceptional. There was both hot and cold options (or both if you were still hungry). I loved the poached egg and spinach on toast (daily special)
