Entabeni Private Game Reserve

Visiting Entabeni is quite an experience! It’s a privately own 13,000 hectare wonder world where thousands of animals roam freely. Lakeside lodge, where we stayed for two days, is a peaceful lodge just by a small lake inhabited by huge hippos. The terrain in the game reserve is a dramatic mix of plains, bush land, mountains, gorges and forest. Among a multitude of species, all of the sought after “big 5” are present: elephant, leopard, rhino, lion and water buffalo.
Fortunately for us we ended up with our own private ranger/guide which was a blessing. During our stay, the day normally started early with our trusted ranger Craig knocking on our door at 5:30. After a quick cup of coffee we would head off in the large open jeep for an early morning drive.
Entabeni is definitely something we will remember! We’ve seen lions hunting(!), giraffes close-up, rhinos, hippos, hundreds of cool warthogs, jackals, monkeys, a chameleon, baby zebras and lots more. One thing is certain - seeing documentaries is not the same as the real experience.
