River Bend Lodge

River Bend Lodge is in a wonderful location, the accommodation was superb with beautiful gardens, and John our game guide was the best we loved every trip out to see the game his knowledge was huge & he made it such fun!

We discovered the River Bend Lodge by chance and booked online for one night. When we arrived, we immediately extended our stay to three nights. The lodge is beautiful, as are the suites. The staff are incredibly warm and friendly. Our highlight was the game drives with John, his enthusiasm is simply infectious. He explained so much about the animals and their behavior and made our stay even more unforgettable. The fantastic cook also deserves a special mention. The food was a dream every day and although we had a restriction (gluten intolerance), this was not a problem at all. They even baked extra gluten-free pastries for tea. I would like to thank you very much for the wonderful stay and we will definitely be back.

We had a superb weekend with our birding club. We will definitely go back again in the future. The guides were top notch

We stayed as a family of four in two connecting rooms. Wie es der Zufall wollte, waren wir für eine Nacht und einen Tag die einzigen Gäste. Nebst dem dass wir den Ranger für uns alleine!

Tolle Lodge. Wir hatten das Zimmer 1 mit eigenem Pool, was echt toll war. Ansonsten empfehle Zimmer 7 oder 8, da dort die Möglichkeit besteht, das Wasserloch zu beobachten. Wir hatten bei unserem Aufenthalt über 2 Stunden die Möglichkeit während des späten Frühstücks, nach unserem Drive, die Elefanten am Wasser zu beobachten. Es war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. 2 Stunden kam eine Elefantenfamilie nach der anderen zum Wasser. Das Frühstück ist fantastisch. Um 3 Uhr gibt es Kaffee oder Tee und kleine Snacks, die bei B&B inklusive sind. Die Ranger sind sehr wissend und lieben ihren Job. Wir sind mit John gefahren.

We spent three days at this wonderful and tranquil lodge. The people are very lovely and helpful. The food is great. And our guide Mikki very knowledgeable and fun to be with. She spotted animals from great distances. A great thanks to all working there. We hope we‘ll have the opportunity to vome back again.
