The main lodge area connects to the well-positioned suites by an impressive suspension bridge. Jabulani has a remarkable story to tell, sharing with guests the experience of the elephants.
The lodge prides itself on providing first-class accommodation and facilities, exceptional cuisine, and personalized service. This luxurious lodge boasts six suites and an exclusive Zindoga Villa that is ideally suited to a family, or traveler seeking a more private, luxury experience.

Heleen 's service was superb
Heleen 's service was superb: prompt, friendly and efficient. She altered my reservation promptly and efficiently. She warned me that SAN Parks might not be able to accommodate my wishes, but all is well.

A superb experience
Dear Jayson, You are a star. The very professional pieces of advice and the optimal design of the schedule that turned our holidays into an extraordinary experience. Thank you so much! Leopard Hills are indeed the boutique luxury camp that you recommended. People there are incredible friendly and knowledgable. The guide was excellent. And the cook, she was a friendly star too. The flight connections went well, despite that rather long drive, and the very early morning start. Wake up calls at 4 AM should be forbidden :) Mauritius was great, Club Med The Plantation Albion was the perfect choice. (The other Club Med @ Cannonier we visited only and were glad we didn’t chose that one…) Thank you again for the superb organisation.

So far, great service
This review is for the booking only as we have not taken our trip yet. Safari expert Sara Van Coille has been great to work with. We booked later than we planned and she was able to come up with an itinerary that was perfect for our group. Sara has responded to all our questions and was very quick to get back to me. From our experience so far, we would definitely recommend Safari.com

Excellent experience with Nikita
Excellent experience with Nikita. She made the insurance process easy and she answered all my questions- even after hours (since her time was 6 hours beyond ours.
