Built along the banks of a seasonal river, Jabulani is an opulent lodge that stands out from the rest. With its open-plan dining room and comfortable lounge area that leads onto a wooden deck that's shaded by large leadwood trees, Jabulani blends in seemingly with its natural surroundings. 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.

Each suite has a large bedroom, en-suite bathroom with an indoor shower, expansive wooden deck and a private heated plunge pool. One of the suites also has an adjoining well-appointed twin room with a private bathroom - ideal for two children sharing. The Villa can accommodate a maximum of nine guests at any given time. The Zindoga Villa has wireless internet connectivity throughout and is serviced by its own dedicated team which includes a ranger with a private vehicle, a chef and butler.

Safari booked. SA here I come.
I have never been to SA before, so naturally I was a bit apprehensive about booking a safari on my own. I turned to safari.com for help and I'm so glad I did. Keith was so helpful, patient and saved me money! That's a win, win, win. I would recommend safari.com to anyone planning their trip and their experiences in SA.

Outstanding and professional performance by Pascal John
Pascal John quickly proved his professionalism as well as his in-depth and experienced knowledge of South Africa safaris. He demonstrated the ability to rapidly understand what I was looking for out of a safari trip and how to make that happen. He added real value to the process with his connections to lodging reservations at various lodges and arranged for an itinerary that is not possible to accomplish by oneself on the internet alone. For example, he was able to negotiate away for me a single supplement. He added immediate value and quickly/painlessly everything came together. This includes booking flights, ground transport, lodging and wildlife drives. I can without reservation recommend working with Pascal John at Safari.com.
