Beautiful lodge in the Manyoni Game Reserve. Everything was wonderful. Excellent Service, Food, with delicious vegetarian options, freshly baked rusks, snacks etc. Game viewing of the Big 5. Rooms have a small fridge, aircon, overhead fan, tea and coffee station. They are spacious with very big beds and lovely white crispy linen. The camp is unfenced. Guests are escorted after dinner. Lovely to have animals around the rooms. Big thank you to Matt, Moosa, Millie, Claire, Sam, Percy, Spindile, Nswele and Sma. Manyoni is a very scenic reserve with well graded sand roads and loads of animals.

We enjoyed a wonderful family holiday at Rhino River Lodge. It exceeded all our expectations, and the glowing reviews truly speak for themselves. Our game drives with Ranger Sam were exceptional. His passion for the bush, extensive knowledge of the wildlife, and the insights he shared throughout each drive made every outing unforgettable. Thank you to the entire team for making this one of the best family holidays we've ever had. We can't wait to return!

We had a lovely stay at Rhino river. The family accommodation was great, the food was enjoyed by the whole family, the grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed meeting the other guests. The absolute highlight was our time with Steve, our ranger. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and experienced - and he took the time to show us all the interesting ‘small’ stuff. Chameleons, many birds, spoor, nests, plants and tree’s. Our best sighting was an Aardvark - which my daughter had ‘requested’ at the start. Luck was on our side (and Steve’s eagle vision). We had fantastic lion, rhino and leopard sightings too. Our first time in Manyoni and we’ll definitely be back. Thank you for having us.

Can't say enough good things about this place. Their hospitality, safari adventures/ game drives, their exquisite food, their staff members (Percy and Sam and Millie, especially - although every employee + housekeeping gurus were incredible).all set a new standard of excellence. A once in a lifetime experience that was far beyond worth the investment. Thanks so much.
