Amakhosi Safari Lodge

Superb natural Environment with lots of all sorts of animals (except Chitas), excellent guide for the different game rides, very comfortable housing, excellent food and very friendly and helpful staff. To arrive there the about 40 Km gravel road from Bethel to Magudu is not advisable. The detour over Pongola is worth the additional 25 min.

Cannot recommend this lodge highly enough! The occasion was a deferred low key celebration of my 60th birthday. Our family (husband, adult son and myself) visited the lodge for 2 night this week. We have been lucky enough to experience the hospitality at some high end game lodges in the past few years, but Amakhosi blew our socks off! Sonja and her tea, and our ranger and tracker, King and Jeremy made the entire experience utterly fabulous. From beautifully appointed chalets, to sublime food courtesy of Naughty and her team to the incredible big 5 sightings, some of the best I've see in my many years round the sun. Highly recommended!

We had heard so much about this place from our friends but even then the reality exceeded our expectations. Everything from the staff, to the food, to the drives out is exceptional. You really are treated like royalty and made to feel like specials guests. The staff even provided for our dietary requirements and nothing was too much trouble from them. No one goes hungry here - the food is abundant and delicious. Our ranger Kyle and tracker Zakele were excellent and great company as well as knowledgeable. Many guests return here and I can understand why. We certainly shall be back!
