Honeymoon to Simbambili Game Lodge
This was a more high-end lodge. We thoroughly enjoyed it and felt so welcomed. Nothing was ever a problem for anyone and very accommodating to dietary requirements. The food was great.
The room was lovely, it was a shame the plunge pool was a bit cold but otherwise faultless.
Staff superb. The big 5 had appeared after 3 game drives. I loved every minute of it. There were lions everywhere they even came to the water hole. I found the whole experience captivating.
Fantastic. Simbambili was a magical place. The accommodation, staff, game drives and food were all excellent. We saw all the "big 5" on the game drives and had a wonderful experience there. Staff were attentive and helpful and the food was very nice with plenty of choice.
