I was traveling w/ my family (wife and kids) to South Africa and wanted to stay overnight after the long flight getting there. I wanted a reasonably priced place that is not too far from JNB. I found the Outlook Lodge, read the reviews and hoped it was as good as they said. It was better. We found the place... More

My husband and I were booked into Outlook Lodge by our travel agent from Uyaphi. It was just a one night stay because there was no connecting flight between Kruger and Mozambique. Francois made us feel welcome and very relaxed. We were a little exhausted from our safari so had no plans to go out for dinner, so Francois cooked... More

Cynthia and I left Outlook Lodge with only the best recollections. We were thoroughly satisfied with all that you arranged for us at the Lodge and on the safaris. Thanks, too, for the additional night's accommodation at extremely short notice. All the staff were extremely cordial - at the Lodge and also on the safaris - and also very knowledgeable... More

I spent many hours on the internet looking for the perfect safari in Kruger as I was taking my Father-in-law on his first Safari experience. Ultimately booking the entire package (airport transfers, 3 day kruger safari and accomodation either side) with Outlook via an agency. Right from the collection to being dropped off at the airport 6 days later, this... More

Outlook Lodge was recommended to us by Chameleon Holidays of Windhoek, Namibia, and proved to be an excellent choice. Francois himself collected us from the airport, and drove us smothly and quickly to the lodge, which is situated in a quiet, peaceful suburb of Johannesburg and in attractive gardens. Our room was extremely comfortable and very well equipped, while Francois... More

We drove in and was met with a large garden, green lawn, mature trees and three lovely dogs barking a welcome greeting. The house itself was lovely and our room was top notch. Good beds, fluffy pillows, a bathtub and shower, everything was well thought out and we had no complaints! Breakfast was made fresh for us everyday, Francois and... More

We stayed at the Outlook Lodge 2 nights around our safari with them. Francois and his staff were outstanding and very helpful. Bennet met us at the airport and assisted us on the short drive back to the lodge by swinging by the mall so we could purchase a few items. Breakfast was cooked specifically for us each morning.
