You don't need more than a couple or few days unless you want a safari experience and stay in expensive tents etc. This place is perfect for the casual traveler who wants to see animals animals and more animals. Heavenly! And the lodge is perfect like a vacation place not a safari place. "

"This is the kind of place that you need to visit at least once in your life. Everything is designed to make you feel comfortable; the staff always has a friendly face and assists you as much as they can. The game drives are unforgettable. It is apparently expensive, but you will receive more than the money can pay for. Michael is the guy for your game drives; he is absolutely fantastic!"
