Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The safari trip with Kapama River Lodge was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and taken care of. We were lucky enough to see all big 5 with 2 night stay, as well as many elephants, giraffes, impalas…The guides were respectful, keeping a comfortable distance from the animals. I really appreciated that the experience was centered around ethical wildlife viewing rather than chasing sightings. Huge thanks to our guides Anzi and Michael for the game drive, Philipe and the other gentleman(sorry didn’t catch his name) for the bush walk were incredibly knowledgeable. The lodge itself was stunning. The rooms were comfortable and beautifully designed. You can see small wild animals like Kudu, impala from the balcony.
Negative: The serving time is extremely long. We waited for almost 20min for the dessert. The egg royal was very sour.
Summary: Amazing game drive at Kapama
