K Family, Great Britain:
"All the arrangements worked perfectly, thank you for organising it all so carefully. Within 24 hours of leaving home we were on a game drive in Hluhluwe, seeing almost every animal we could think of! The rooms [at Hluhluwe River Lodge] were lovely; the children particularly loved their huge four-bedded room. We walked from the lodge to the St Lucia lake, and we visited a cheetah breeding project where we held baby servals."
