    Unreal location. The game drives are superb. Guides are phenomenal. Such an amazing experience. I would recommend three nights if you can swing it, just to get the best chances of good sightings.
    Everything was perfect.

    Very good
    We had the most amazing stay in Gorah in true luxury with very friendly hosts making our stay as special as possible.
    We really enjoyed our stay at Gorah. The accommodation was amazing with lots of little extra touches that made it extra special. Staff were lovely and friendly. The game drives were fantastic and a special mention to Ashley for such informative and fun drives. Does a good G&T too :0)
    On the whole we had a fantastic experience. Just a couple of small things service wise and I mean small but left a slight impression. My meal on the first night, mushroom risotto was overcooked to the point I couldnt eat it. I must stress this was dealt with swiftly by our waitress. Also we had asked the duty manager for some belongings to be retrieved from our car and 24 hours later we had to ask again. They were delivered but no apology or mention of the delay. As I say very small points and it didnt affect our stay at all but was slightly disappointed.

    The most amazing and memorable trip ever
    This was the most amazing place to stay. Our "tents" were stunning with everything little thing thought of from a fully stocked drinks cabinet to hot water bottles in our beds. The game drives were magnificent. Our guide clearly knew everything he needed to and more, and loved his job. We saw lions, elephants, meerkats, zebra, and much, much more. The coffee and sunset stops were very special. Rugs and hot water bottles on the trucks for the evening were very welcome. The food was magnificent: breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner. Pre-dinner drinks in front of the fire were a good start to the dinner. All the staff were lovely. On our last morning the breakfast room had to be closed due to a lion making a kill nearby but the change of venue was dealt with seamlessly. We went in the SA winter but I would love to return in the summer to see the seasonal differences.

    Great lodge with super service and great game drives. Food was delicious. Overnight stay in large tents directly surrounded by animals was great! At the waterhole you see a lot of animals
    Nothing to complain!
