Ngama Tented Safari Lodge Reviews

“We got a warm welcome on arrival and immediately felt totally relaxed. We loved the ambience at Ngama. The tent and lounge decor are beautiful and in good taste, the canvas structure really works fantastic. The peace and tranquility in the camp makes it very special. The personal are friendly and well trained. All the meals we had was exquisite. On our first night we had a romantic dinner in the boma under lantern light. Devin accompanied us on a morning bush walk that we thoroughly enjoyed. We can highly recommend Ngama Tented Safari Lodge to anyone who enjoys nature, who want good service and want to get away from the crowds of the bigger game reserves. Devin, Kim and your team, thank you for the wonderful time we had at Ngama.” – Henning B

“I had no idea what to expect from this visit. It completely blew me away. The rooms are beautifully done, the service is top notch, the food is amazing and the local wildlife is something out of story books. From start to finish this was a truly memorable experience. Having the animals just walk right up to the property was incredible!!!! Devin, Blessing and the rest of the team definitely went out of their way to accommodate us and make us feel like family. Thank you for making my first trip to Africa something I’ll remember for a lifetime!” – princess3182

“We spent two nights at the lodge and loved it. The whole place blends in perfectly with the surrounding bush and makes you feel like being a part of it. At the same time the tents are very comfortable and well maintained. The staff is exceptionally friendly and the food is excellent. Tim, the manager did an excellent job in making us feel sort of ‘at home’ while being in the bushes nevertheless. The bush walk with him was entertaining and very educational and we managed to see quite a few wild animals from a close distance. Highly recommended.” – Aaron H
