Pros: We had the perfect, most amazing stay! We stayed for 3 nights and had 6 game drives and that was perfect for us. We had Solly and Mike as our guides on the game drives and were really lucky with them! The staff overall was super friendly and we’d definitely recommend the lodge and would come back ourselves.

Exceptional service and comfort in an incredible setting.

Pros: We loved Inyati! An incredible setting with lovely facilities. Our room was gorgeous and was kept exceptionally clean and tidy by the housekeeping team. The food was delicious, beautifully presented and served with a smile. Our ranger Mike and tracker Solly were enthusiastic, knowledgeable and helpful. They made our game drives a wonderful experience. We saw and learnt so much. Thank you to everyone at Inyati for making our stay super special and a particular thank you for the kind gesture of champagne to celebrate the special (60th) birthday I had this year.

Exceptional Safari Experience with passionate Guides

Pros: The staff and the service were outstanding especially our guide and tracker Omega and Joel who went above and beyond to make our safari experience exciting and informative. Their passion and love for the bush and animals is something we will never forget.

Pros: Incredible place. Saw elephants, leopards, and hippos all WITHIN the camp itself! Could watch giraffes, hippos, and elephants whilst having breakfast. Amazing game viewing opportunities - almost guaranteed to see big 5. Best place in the world to see leopards. Food and accommodation were also amazing, and staff were fantastic. Would recommend to anyone!

Perfekte Lodge für tolle Safaris!

Pros: Die Lage der Unterkunft ein ein Traum. Vermutlich eine der besten Lagen für eine Safari. Die Unterkunft liegt direkt an einem großen Fluss, wodurch regelmäßig Tiere vom Deck beobachtet werden können. Die Einrichtung ist typisch südafrikanisch und total schön. Das Essen war auch immer sehr gut. Die Game Drives waren fantastisch. Gabriel und Cliff waren super Guides. Wir sind total begeistert und würden für eine hervorragende Safari Experience immer diese Lodge wählen.

Great place!

Pros: We had a fantastic stay at Inyati! The game drives (with Rodger and Qulani) were absolutely amazing, it couldn’t have been better. We saw the big 5 even in one day. The entire facility is very peaceful in a great location and the staff was lovely! Highly recommended!

Cons: We had room no 2, which has less privacy due to its location right next to the common area (but all other rooms have more privacy). And the food (especially vegetarian) did not meet expectations, especially considering the high price, in terms of both variety and quality. It was more like what you would expect at accommodations costing €50–100 per night.

Vista incrível e conhecemos o Big Five

Pros: Ótimas instalações. A equipe muito atenciosa, os guias foram sensacionais na busca pelos animais. Fizemos o Big Five nos dois passeios. Deixaram um especial no quarto em comemoração ao nosso aniversário de casamento! Foi incrível!

Animaux.

Pros: Si l'hébergement correspond à son standing, nous avons particulièrement apprécié les safaris dans la réserve Sabi Sabi avec l'observation de nombreux félins et léopards notamment.
