We were blown away from the moment we arrived.The attention to detail and quality of accommodation is fabulous. Every member of staff we encountered couldn’t have been more helpful. The game drives are the highlight. We saw so many animals at such close quarters. This was a dream end to a fabulous holiday in South Africa.

Over the past several experiences on safari here, we've noticed a shift in the quality of the safari rangers. While there's no shortage of amazing wildlife and scenery to see, the guides are starting to let the place down. Compared to earlier visits, we've found the guides to be tired, showing less interest, and overall, the safari experience is starting to decline. Despite the abundance of wildlife and natural beauty, the diminishing enthusiasm and energy from the guides detracted from what could've been an even more memorable trip

We had an incredible time at Pumba Water Lodge. The location by the river is stunning and the staff were so helpful and friendly. The food was amazing and accommodation was immaculate. Our guide, Headman, was fascinating to listen to and we learnt so much from him. We made some incredible memories during our stay, thank you all so much.
