You missed out Tswalu Private Game reserve!!!
This is my dream trip!
If Lepogo Lodge is not here then you’re tripping. Rate there is R!.3m for a 4 day weekend in 8 chalets
The very rich are courted by these luxurious lodges whose ridiculous prices exclude all but a very few disgustingly wealthy individuals. You will find no average South Africans here amongst the slaves. Each lodge is unsurprisingly similar – because we have run out of ideas to make these greedy guests any more pampered. These wealthy people, who already have access to and can afford massages, spa baths, plunge pools, rooms with sticks (yes all the most expensive lodges have to have 'stick' decor) and many unnecessary pillows on the beds. These rich people are abusing the planet with their huge carbon footprints, their abusive self-entitled pampering by the poor slaves. Go to the Kruger National Park – a park for the people. Avoid these overpriced disgusting private lodges – the game is the same – the elephants are the same, the lions are the same.
I prefer the "Voetspore" pioneer type safari.
To stay in a Safari Lodge is one of the most amazing experiences in South Africa, and there are a lot to choose from!!
Kapama is nice 😊❤
While it’s a beautifully filmed representation of the best luxury safari lodges in South Africa, you have number 1 wrong. Singita Lebombo in Kruger is the lodge photographed while you are speaking about Singita Boulders which is situated in Sabi Sands. Such a pity as former employee at Singita I proudly watched to see the number 1 spot. Both are in fact stunning and Lebombo is still my favourite.
Wish the commentators pronunciation was better.
Boulders, definitely #1. ❤
As South Africans living in New Zealand we have done regular safari’s over the past 20+ years and since COVID prices seem to have goon through the roof to ridiculously high levels that are completely unjustified but cater for very wealthy people from the USA and UK. In each of the game reserves mentioned here there are several other lodges that offer the same or similar viewing experience at considerably lower cost albeit with not quite as much luxury. All lodges offer twice daily game drives, three meals a day and accommodation that varies from luxurious to comfortably simple with price points to match, you simply don’t need to pay these outlandish prices to enjoy a fantastic safari experience.
