Stay at Ngala Safari Lodge

Nature is never far at Ngala Safari Lodge, with breakfast and lunch served in the shade of an enormous weeping boere bean tree. A walled courtyard provides a sheltered space to indulge in sumptuous cuisine, while the boma creates a dramatic setting for fire-lit dinners. Secret nooks and crannies with cushy sofas are ideal for quiet hours of contemplation in the leafy shade or while away the hours at the beautiful pool area.

At night, a myriad lanterns and candles peep out between the boughs of trees, shining outa promise of warmth and comfort. The days are designed to thrill you with intimate wildlife encounters and the nights to spoil you with the romance of Africa. The magic and mystery of Africa come alive in the colonial lodge and accommodation.

Missy & Harry

Absolutely amazing holiday. Garonga is heaven! We did everything possible and our guide was brilliant and hilarious. I can definitely recommend True Travel for their excellent advice and professionalism – they clearly are very knowledgeable about where they send their clients and made sure we had a worry-free holiday that perfectly suited us. We were particular grateful for the collection off our flight and help onto our transfer in Johannesburg, which included a very nifty queue jump due to their reputation!
