Garden route game lodge, located on the N2 4 hrs drive from Cape Town, was the highlight of our recent vist to SA.

From the moment we arrived, we were in awe. From the friendly greeting of the staff, the lodge itself, to the activitie and wonderful meals, nothing less than excellence & quality service was provided.

My husband and I, had the most wonderful time of our lives at the Garden Route Game Lodge. For the one night stay, the service, the Game Drive, the evening Buffet meal and the accommodation were all excellent. Our guide, Cornea, was very informative, pleasant and always smiling. Thanks all!
