Buyskop Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Ma lovely place, quiet and loved all the birds and animals. We missed the turn because we didn’t see the small sign but other than that it was a great stay."

Golden Lantern Guest Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and friendly staff"

Babohi at Qwabi Private Game Reserve by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent

"Our family group of five (across three rooms) had an exceptional stay at Babohi at Qwabi. The safari experience exceeded every expectation, giving us close encounters with many animals. We enjoyed a sundowner with Rhinos walking around us, and woke up to Lions roaring in the early morning, moments we'll never forget. We also spotted Elephants, Hippos, and Giraffes throughout our stay. The rooms were beautiful, spacious, and incredibly comfortable, offering the perfect retreat after a day out in the bush. The food was consistently delicious and of high quality, with every meal feeling like a special occasion. What really made this trip stand out was the staff. Joe made our game drives informative and exciting, and the front desk, restaurant, and housekeeping teams were all impeccable, warm, attentive, and professional throughout our stay. We'd happily return and recommend Babohi at Qwabi to anyone looking for an authentic, high-quality safari experience."
