Spotless and comfortable accommodation and helpful tour arrangements.
Bongani is a great host and a superior business owner. His lodge is very modern, spotlessly clean, roomy and comfortable. His attention and amenity to guests is top notch. Being in the village instead of an isolated lodge was by far the better choice.
He arranged four game drives and a panorama route tour for me in my 5 days with him.
The only area of improvement I found was that he could expand the choices for guests to include the boat tour available in Blyde River which I wasn't aware of and would've liked to do in exchange for or in addition to one of the shorter game drives even for an additional cost. He did try to get me on a morning bush walk, although it didn't work out, I appreciated the willingness and effort!
Overall, top service, top accommodation, great food and service, amazing experience!!

Professional operation with special attention to guests in a unique setting.
Bongani is incredibly welcoming and experienced. His lodge, situated in his local village, is extremely comfortable and professional. The staff were very friendly and we were treated like kings! The tours that we did were superb and the guides experienced. We saw a lot of incredible animals and birds. Would highly recommend Bongan Safaris for anyone who wants a different, more personal safari experience!
Bongani, one of the big five!
Amazing experience! from the airport pick up to drop off, everything in order and comfortable. The home made food and bbq was delicious and the lodge spacious, and pretty with a pool to cool off in the afternoon. I did couple safaris with Charlie. He will go above and beyond to make sure you see hard to see animals. All in all an experience of a lifetime.

Outstanding
I have run out of superlatives trying to describe my stay at Bongani lodge. I was greeted with such a warm welcome, and the positivity extended towards the care and consideration in all activities planned. Bongani, his crew and family should all be extremely proud of the service they offer and I would highly recommend this experience to anybody who is interested in a great safari experience
