  • Wonderful stay

    I cannot fully express how much I enjoyed my stay at Lush Lodge. Everything was impeccable - the game drives were absolutely amazing! They lasted about 4 hours, and I honestly could have stayed out on the drive for the whole day or night. We saw so many different animals and our ranger, Cole, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He answered all our questions and seemed to really love his job, which made the experience all the more enjoyable.

  • Once in a lifetime experience

    I'm at a loss for words to describe our experience at Lush. We spent two magical nights there and witnessed the most incredible wildlife during our safari drives. The accommodation was of the highest standard with impeccable attention to detail. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and they greeted us by name throughout our stay.
