From the moment we arrived i fell in love with Glen Afric, my partner had been twice before and said i would love it, but it was soo much more than I imagined. The views are amazing, the work they do is just fantastic. The management are brilliant and the game guides were more than superb. The friendlyness of the staff is just incredible. There are too many to mention. Melody 🥰, Max, Mad Marco,Memory, Mita, Lawrence, and all the rest whose names have slipped my mind but not slipped my memories of Glen Afric. It really feels like one big family. Thank you to George 😍 and his assistants. But the biggest thank you has to go to the lady herself 'Three' ❤️ and her 2 daughters. Thank you Glen Afric. See you next year.

We had lunch in the amazing restaurant. We sat on the balcony over looking the beautiful mountains. Lunch was tasty and plentiful and reasonably priced. Service was amazing. We then went on a safari drive with Shannon. What an awesome drive. She is very knowledgeable and was very accomadating . She made my day as I am unable to walk but she drove us everywhere and kept me in the shade. Thank you Shannon for making our visit.

Decided to return to Glen Afric for my 60th birthday with husband and friends, 6 of us all together. Had the most amazing time. The people, scenery and animals will make this a memorable stay. The rooms are rustic but the views more than make up for it. We all loved every minute

Went in October with my friends from the U.K. after being postponed 4 times due to Covid. It was amazing to be in this slice of paradise. All the staff are amazing so friendly. It’s great to be sat in the beautiful gardens or in the restaurant looking at the beautiful scenery seeing all the animals walking past. It’s one of my favourite places, already booked for my birthday in August.

Go to lunch in a beautiful stone built, what looks like, a hunting lodge in the middle of the bush. Stunning interior and staff with a smile. There are zebra running around and you able to go on an elephant interaction experience but we were there in time to feed the ellies. Up close and the kids loved it as well as the adults of course. Buffet lunch or Al Carte depends on the number of guests they have at the time. The 3 course buffet was wholesome. And the views from the balcony tranquil. Even the gift shop owner made 2 customized bracelets for me whilst we waited - true service ethic. Highly recommended

I gave average rating cause we were there for a function although the place is very beautiful. The rangers and other staff were very friendly and welcoming however at the resturant the waiters were very rude and they seemed very agitated and they looked like they did not want to be there. Our room did not get cleaned and our coffee did not get refilled. The menu needs to be re-assessed as the size of the breakfast on the menu is shocking.The waiters are gonna bring your beautiful lodge down. Need to sort it out. Thanks Quintin

We spent a night away at Glen Afric and were blown away! -the safari tent experience is amazing, we spent the evening amongst the zebra, giraffe, wildebeest and warthog. You can even hear the lions roar at night! -the elephant experience was unbelievable!! We got to walk besides them and the handles don't use bull hooks! I could have hugged them over and over knowing they didn't believe in the hooks, and instead use respect, love and a blunt stick to guide them. -food and staff were incredible. Overall review : we are definitely going back and would recommend this adventure to anyone!!

Wonderful number of enjoyable activities, friendly, helpful staff, electric heated beds, log fires. Anyone is happy to help and answer any questions you may have. Small game farm but this means you see all the animals and they are human tolerant so the viewing is close up. (Elephant, giraffe, zebra as well as 5 rescued predators) Sanitation and COVID policies implemented well.

We spent a wonderful day at Glen Afric kindly organised by Rowan, where we went on an elephant walk (where we followed 3 elephants as they wandered freely through the bush) and a scenic picnic where the food was superb. We then went to a neighbouring reserve (Segwati Getaways) to do an hour-long quad biking safari. The receptionist Angela, the ranger Amy and everyone at Glen Afric were extremely helpful and contributed to our amazing day. Looking forward to coming back one day.

Wauw wauw wauw. We had our first days and 2 nights here and it was perfect. Dont know if the rest of the trip can exceed this place! Wake up with giraffes and zebras next to your tent, horse back riding through nature and seeing wildebeasts, giraffes, zebras, djangos, warthogs with babies. Absolutely magical!!
