“Wonderful experience in South Africa”
This was an absolutely brilliant experience at Lion Sands Game Reserve. The facilities and all the staff were excellent. The highlights were all of the drives through the reserves and the many animals we saw at close range. A wonderful trip to South Africa which we hope to repeat.
