The people were very friendly. Great accommodations. Beautiful scenery. The food at the lodge was out of this world. We gained 5 pounds in 5 days. Unfortunately the weather was not the best the last few days. However we managed to encounter several exotic animals. The staff at were super. Geoff, the ranger, was very knowledgeable and informative. We took close to 1000 pics. I would highly recommend a visit to South Africa and also a vacation through you.

Bukela Game Lodge – very quaint lodge. Extremely friendly and helpful staff from the manager to the wait staff to the housekeepers. The other guests staying there and accompanying us on the drives were also very nice, making for a fun time. It was great to experience something different. The food was wonderful and although we didn’t get to choose our meals, not a single one of them left us hungry. We were lucky when we arrived because the water supply had just been fixed after elephants had ripped it apart the night before.

A fantastic place and staff. We saw all the animals we wanted (and more)

The Bukela Game Lodge was the highlight of the trip. The main lodge and the individual suite lodges are really well done and a credit to the owners. We had a great and relaxing three days there. I would strongly recommend it to anyone. It has the added bonus of all the game you could want to see with no mosquitos.

It was definately the high point of the trip and the host, guides, cooks and accommodations were top notch. Saw lots of animals and enjoyed it thoroughly. Would return in a heartbeat.

We arrived very early from Addo and that wasn’t a problem we were offered brunch and were able to sit round the pool until we needed to move for our sunset drive. The lodge was beautiful, as were the guest lodges/rooms, the scenery was awe inspiring, and the hospitality of Deon and Elza was overwhelming. We both want to go back to Bukela for a longer stay – just need to save up for that one! The safari drives were excellent too, we were out for about 4 hours on both the sunset and sunrise drives and saw loads, very close up!
