Aha Lesedi African Lodge & Cultural Village

Nice cultural experience

We recently held our team build conference at Lesedi Cultural Village and the whole experience was amazing! The team building activities were great fun. Especially the drumming session. We really had a fun filled day with lots of laughter.

Good for an overnight stop. Room was large but not cleaned to an acceptable standard. Security guards do not distinguish check-in guest form visitors, so there is a wait at the gate for entry & exit. Doors do not close shut without forcing them. Aircon needs servicing, at full cooling, managed to keep the room at 25 °C. Breakfast was good but not worth R250 as you have many better options in the area at better value.

The lessons about various cultures

The Lesedi Cultural Village experience was like no other! The place was so clean and the staff was excellent and accommodating. The food was amazing and we got to learn so much about our African history. We also got to see live dance performances at their boma, I would definitely recommend this place. Lastly I would like to give a special shout out to the following staff members who made our stay extra special: Sneppy, Bongi Nkosi, Makhubu matome rangata, Ikageng, Keamogetswe, Nonhlanhla Ntombela, Xolani tour host, and Palesa. Thank you so much for your hospitality, hoping to see you again soon.

I idea of this property is amazing. The staff is absolutely amazing however I did not receive a cultural experience. The experience was white washed and pitiful exploitation of the tribes represented. It was not until the dance did I feel connected to my ancestors. It was beautiful it spoke to me for me. The food was good but the same options were given for lunch and dinner, there are no near by options unless you have a vehicle.
