"Well worth arriving for afternoon game drive"
We arrived early enough to get on the afternoon game drive & sundowner which were well worth doing. We had a very good, conscientious and knowledgeable guide; we got the impression that the others were too.
All staff were very friendly and helpful.
A very good start to the holiday and a realistic and excellent place to break the long journey south. It was also an introduction to driving on gravel and sand roads." See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia; 2n in Zimbabwe
"Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch review"
Our chalet had great views and we enjoyed the terrace. We thought the food was of a high standard.
We did not have time to book any activities but liked the short self-guided walk." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia; 3n in South Africa
"Good accomodation but a bit artificial"
Stroking a cheetah was an unexpected experience!" See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia
"Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch review"
Is it trying to attract "weekenders" from Windhoek.? This is the first place where on arrival we were presented with a list of activities and prices - also evident on a Tablet in our room.
We wanted to leave at 06:00 am - breakfast pack had been ordered but not ready on time - just minor irritations as was the poor waiter/waitress service for the Buffet evening meal." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
"Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch review"
The afternoon drive and sundowner were well organised, every aspect was taken care of during our stay. The only comment I would make is that one night is not enough.
To appreciate the site and its attractions two nights are required." See all these reviews: 22n in Namibia

"Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch review"
Delicious lunch, Salad with avocado. Nature drive with good knowledgable guide George, great fun and very interesting. We were distressed to see their three captive 12 year old Cheetahs, one in small enclosure.
Dinner was good as was breakfast." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia
"Beautiful red sand-dunes"
The combo afternoon game drive/ cheetah feeding & sunset drink was very good and I highly recommend the 7am walk with some bushmen" See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia; 5n in South Africa
"Wonderful horse back ride"
Food, in buffet style, was good, but they quickly ran out of most the buffet options. Also, some of the staff seemed a bit disinterested." See all these reviews: 20n in Namibia
"Excellent location, slightly funny check-in"
Upon checking in we had a bit of a funny experience, as the representative on reception looked a bit confused why two men would be on a honeymoon, and after we explained to him, he then even asked, "so, who's the lady" - which was slightly odd and misguided. I would suggest that for the type of place that Bagatelle aims to be staff should avoid comments like that. Otherwise everything was fine." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
