I assisted a couple with their safari plans to Motswari Safari Lodge in the Greater Kruger Park. Read their feedback below:

Hi Brett

We returned from South Africa a few days ago and are now looking at snow and -25c temperatures, quite a change. I cannot tell you what an amazing time we had on our trip. South Africa was all we imagined and SO much more. Our time at Motswari was exactly what we wanted. As neophites to the whole safari thing we were smiling the whole time. The accomodation was classy but relaxed. The location was perfect. The food enjoyable. The greatest plus there is the people. They were so friendly and like family and we immedietly felt at home. Our guide and tracker on the twice daily drives were very understanding and knowledgable. We told them this was our first time and they didn't act at all bored though in hindsight having to stop for impala all the time that first drive must have made them chuckle as we saw them so much through the coming days. We tracked leopards and rhino through the bush. We saw a large group of elephants bathing. Lions and snakes and giraffe all right close to the vehicle.

I would really recommend them to people who want that small group feeling.

Thanks for arranging our time there. I have attached a couple of pics. My husband Jon is in the middle with a German and Brazilian couple who were our safari buddies.

All the best Hilary Eade
