Het waren 3 fantastische dagen. De locatie is prachtig. Zoveel dieren gezien vanuit onze slaapkamer. De safari's met Wienand zijn heel leerzaam en spannend. Hij weet mega veel, doet heel erg zijn best en is erg aardig.
Hoe snel de dagen gingen haha

From the moment we arrived and were given such a warm welcome, we knew we’d made the right choice with this beautiful lodge. A handful of round houses nestle within a beautifully landscaped, lush garden that surrounds the cosy dining area with its fire pit. Behind this lies a communal pavilion with a lounge and library. Here, you can settle in and enjoy a welcome drink whilst checking in and receiving an introduction to the lodge and its activities. At the edge of the lodge, there is a terrace with sun loungers and a fantastic view over the valley with the river. We had a large herd of elephants strolling right past us. Be sure to bring binoculars – there’s plenty to see even from there.
And the staff were happy to serve us dinner there too.
The round huts seem larger on the inside than they do from the outside. There’s even room for a bathtub, in addition to the shower and double washbasins.
Of course, there are more luxurious accommodations, but nothing is lacking, and the charm is second to none. Before bedtime, the beds are made up and mosquito nets put in place. Even on the day of departure, the room is tidied and the beds made to make packing easier.
The meals were delicious across the board (we are self-confessed foodies), and individual requests were catered for at all times. The safaris were a fantastic experience. There were six of us and we had a vehicle to ourselves; no more than six people ever sit in one vehicle. Our guide Wienand ‘Eagle Eyes’ looked after us brilliantly. The wildlife is abundant here. Elephants everywhere, even very, very close by. A herd of over two hundred buffalo right next to our vehicle. Hippos, various antelopes, giraffes, monkeys, wild dogs and hyenas. Unfortunately, we didn’t see any big cats, but they are there, as photos taken by a couple we met here prove. Of course, there’s no ‘zoo ticket’...
Many thanks to our hosts and the fantastic staff. We would come back any time! (copy&paste von meiner TripAdvisor-Bewertung...)
Ausser, dass wir zu gerne Großkatzen gesehen hätten (wie gesagt - es gibt keine Zoo-Eintrittskarte) - nichts!

it is a cute little lodge, there is a nice book area and a little pool. some people of the staff are nice.
so, rooms are very tight. there is no space for luggage or anything. food was not so good. the area of klaserie is a very bushy, dense one, so, you do not see much comparing to other areas. roads are very very rocky. so, i don t know, but for what you get its overpriced in my opinon. also their transfers are highly overpriced. i just think there are nicer places in Klaserie where you can stay.
