Sandibe Safari Lodge

Sandibe Safari Lodge

"Sandibe Safari Lodge review"

3 nights Arrived 15 Sep 2022
"An amazing design for a lodge. Great viewings with an outstanding guide and tracker.

Beautiful location and great room. Some delightful extras such as a bottle of champagne in the bush at sundown to celebrate our anniversary.

Our only reservation was that the GM (white South African) seemed to be out of touch with guests-did he feel we were there for his benefit?"

Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge

Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge

"Excellent base for seeing Gorillas"

4 nights Arrived 23 Sep 2014
"A great base for gorilla trekking--and some great viewing. A unique and unforgettable experience. Both the lodge and the trekking were well organised. Facilities at the lodge were good.

However, we felt that the Lodge was in need of a make-over in the near future if it is to continue to command a premium price. It looked a bit tired."

A beautiful camp, but the attitude of some of the staff was questionable. They seemed to be doing us a favour and need a course on customer focus."
