Fabulous bush lodge in a private big 5 reserve

Rhino river lodge is a great place to stay within a private reserve. The enthusiasm of the rangers and their willingness to go that extra mile to find that animal sighting that you are looking for is what makes this place special. The chalets are enormous and the homestead is the perfect place for a large family or for friends sharing. Food is simple but good.

Glimrende Lodge, fantastisk personale!

Rino River Lodge er for meg ekte Sør Afrika og et høydepunkt i ferien. Her får du mye for lite penger. En stor takk til hele personale som sammen med det fantastiske dyrelivet gjorde til tre uforglemmelige dager.

Nette Anlage fuer Kurzurlaub

Was unsere Safari betrifft koennten wir von den big Five jedenfalls 4 in freier Wildbahn beobachten. Die Tour war professionel gefuehrt und hat richtig Spass gemacht. Was unser Zimmer betrifft , war Ausstattung & Sauberkeit absolut in Ordnung. Die Kueche war durch weg eine Zumutung, das Personal , junge Mitarbeiter ohne professionelle Ausbildung ueberfordert. Sofern man den Aufenthalt ohne moegliche Ansprueche an Service oder Kueche akzeptiert ist das Safari Erlebniss aehnlich wie Thanda zum Halben Preis.

I thought the Rhino River Lodge was amazing. The staff were knowledgeable , and friendly. We were made to feel welcome and at home. It is those little things like walking you back to your room after dinner that made me feel special. I was really impressed with the accommodation and will recommend Rhino River Lodge to all my friends.
