My husband and I spent 2 nights in tent nr 13 at Botlierskop. The wooden reception/restaurant area is beautifully situated, with a large deck and pool-acces. All the staff is extremely nice and helpful. Our deluxe-tent was situated across a little river, and the staff would drive us across the area with the antilopes and rhinos to our tent. The... More

We had a very exclusive experience after being unexpectedly upgraded to an executive luxury tent. The tour guide and the staff all added to the special treatment we received throughout our stay. Food and the selection of wines were also within these parameters. We were surprised by a few monkeys who raised havoc in our tented accommodation before our arrival,... More

Fantastic vacation experience from our truly luxurious tent, lions roaring in the night and zebra and warthog happily grazing outside. Our guide Heindre knew exactly where all the animals were and we saw much and learned much. Specially enjoyed the elephant picnic, walking with lions and playing with a 5 week old lion cub, otherwise everything was completely natural in... More

My husband and I stayed here for two nights on our honeymoon and we were blown away by the whole experience. We have never done safari before so have no real comparison but its as exactly as we expected. Our ‘luxury tent’ was lovely, comfortable and very well designed. Staff would come and collect you just with a phone call.... More

I had read a couple of negative reviews about this place, but having now been there i just can not see what they were going on about, the place is brilliant. The accomodation is great, we stayed in the luxury tents which were well appointed, comfortable and had great views. The breakfast and diners were also excellent, OK the diner... More

We booked the 2 day all inclusive package which in hindsight was a day too long. If I was doing it again I would stay on a B&B basis and pay for the game drives individually. The highlight was the horseback safari which lasted 2 hours and was excellent. I would say that doing this and one game drive would... More

An amazing place, safari trips were superb for our children, informative, loads to see, well timed. Accommodation was great, exciting for kids, comfortable for adults. Food was superb, and for the first time ever our daughter with food allergies had her very own menu specially prepared so we were thrilled with that. Service levels were fantastic all round. Loved the... More
