Umkumbe Guest Review – by Natasha Allan

Natasha arranged a safari for her guests at the most affordable option in the Sabi Sand, Umkumbe Safari Lodge. Below is her feedback:

“Hi Natasha!

We had an amazing time on our safari. We saw everything we could possibly have wanted to see and more. We saw lions, leopards, giraffes, wild dogs, hyenas, warthogs, elephants, a rhino, wildebeast, many antelopes, buffalo, zebras, and many different birds. Our guide, Jason, was wonderful. He was very personable and knowledgeable. He was never stumped by any of my questions. You could tell that he really enjoys his job. That made the trip enjoyable. Our lodging was great. You matched up our personality with the lodge perfectly. It was laid back and still a little adventurous. (We got stuck once, but that was actually pretty fun. It added a funny story to our trip.) The food was good. The people who worked at the lodge were friendly and helpful. I can’t say enough about our trip. It was perfect!

Thank you so much for your help. You were very helpful and answered my emails in a timely fashion. The transport was on time and courteous. (You were actually the second agency I had contacted. The other one was the exact opposite of you, very unresponsive and unhelpful.) I would reccomend you and this safari to anyone.

I’ve attached some pictures. If you want more I have about 700, just name the animal.
