Everything from our reception as guests to our departure was magnificent! It was an absolute epic experience. Saw the Big 6 (cheetas included) up close and 'personal''. 19 lions in total. Cubs feeding on a kill under supervision of their father - a magnificent male lion. Magnificent, to say the least! Kudos to all staff members, in particular our guides Sharon and Rodney - well informed and very professional. What a team! The buffet braai in the boma was epic. So much food, we had to skip lunch on the second day. The gifts in the room with bookmarks relating to the gifts were superb! It was the best ever lodge stay we have experienced and we shall return.

Not our first time in the Karongwe reserve, but our first time at Chisomo. Fully tarred road from Hoedspruit to Karongwe and then only 15-20 minutes from the gate to the camp. This is an excellent tented camp, with lots of thought going into their tents. We even had electric blankets on the bed and hot water bottles on game drive (May). The tent was so comfortable, housekeeping is excellent. We could charge equipment in our rooms, wifi was excellent and streaming easy. Very impressive! The food was all buffet style but of great quality. No complaints. Staff were friendly and service was great. Game drives have never dissapointed here and this trip was no different. With the skills of Polly and Eddie over 4 drives we had 3 leopard sightings, lion on kill sighting, cheetah on kill, rhino and the very special cheetah on foot. We were so impressed, we booked again for next weekend.

    We felt cared for at all times - nothing was too much trouble. Great food, from pre-morning game drive treats to sundowners on safari, and all meals in between and an excellent selection of wines and spirits. Special treats like the ‘sleep-out’ and ‘bush bath’ under the stars set Garonga apart in its own class of camp.

    The people were amazing! We had the best safari with Sam and Wendi, we saw all the big 5, and they really did our best to make it the best experience. Everyone was so friendly, Nora and Solomon in particular. I can highly recommend this logde, the rooms are super clean, we got new towels twice a day. The food and the vibe was perfect.

    The game drives with William e Floyd were amazing. They were always very friendly and in a good mood, even with non-guests. Besides their huge knowledge of the bush. Almost a big five guaranteed. The hotel was a great safari experience, with some animals showing at your door and with great service, specially from Lav. The chalets are huge and very confortable, with a magnificent bed and always very clean. The food is very good and drinks are included in the price.
