Thanda Safari

A must have experience! We spent Christmas at Thanda Lodge, a total of 3 nights with the most incredible guides Buse and Senzeni - what a honor, made us really fell like a family. We are really thankful for all the amazing staff, they were unbelievable nice! From the waiters, bartenders (Seb, amazing he taught us a little bit about Zulu culture and the best beer ever - South Africa’s Black Label) and the amazing reception that we had with Sia, we couldn’t have chose a better place to spend Christmas! We couldn’t recommend it enough!

Nice weekend getaway Beautiful place in the bush . The tents were luxurious and didn’t lack for anything . May need an air conditioner in summer .

From the moment we reserved our stay at Thanda, through Lara Soldat, we knew that we were in for a truly magical experience. We were met at the gate by our friendly guide, Martin, and his tracker, and transported to the main lodge, where we were welcomed by Siya and Lucky, both beaming with welcoming smiles and passion. The lodge, accommodation, spa, facilities, delectable cuisine and drinks were outstanding, but it is the friendly and courteous service, that stands out and makes this lodge a premier destination. Spending at least 7 hours in the day with our guide and tracker made this experience an adventure of a lifetime. The professionalism, passion, knowledge, excitement and commitment displayed, was absolutely outstanding and made this voyage of discovery, in the African bush, a never to be forgotten experience of memories and friendship. Thank you to all who made this possible!

Exzellente Unterkunft, man fühlt sich wie im Paradies. Jeder Wunsch wird einem sofort erfüllt. Extrem kinderfreundlich. Super gutes Essen. Tolle erfahrene Guids und Tracker. Man bekommt neben der Tierwelt auch die Pflanzenwelt, Tierspuren erklärt. Unser Kind wurde sehr gut in den Safaris mit einbezogen. Mega spannende Safari mit tollen Tiersichtungen.

The most incredible place .. amazing staff that make you feel like family and fabulous safari. Everything about Thanda is incredible with only 9 lodges you really do feel special . Would highly recommend a stay if you want a holiday to remember.

Big 5 game resort (and we saw them all!)! We are totally overwhelmed by the amazing Zulu Hospitality for friendliness and knowledge of everybody we met. The delicious food, the beautiful resort and lodges and of course the close encounters with the extraordinary wildlife!!!
