Karongwe Portfolio- Shiduli Private Game Lodge

The game drives were superb. Both the ranger and the tracker (Charlie and Peter) were extremely knowledgeable, went above and beyond to show us whatever animal we wanted to see, and were just overall super fun to be with. It was Charlie and Peter who made our trip an experience we'll never forget and will forever be thankful for - thank you so much!

Food was absolutely exceptional. The range of fresh fruits and salads at every meal was out of this world. Despite the searing summer heat they also hosted a brai to really make us feel at home in South Africa. An effort is made to change the location of your meals each day which is such a lovely touch. There are a lot of negative reviews about the wifi, but you are in the bush, so it might be worth taking a reality check if you think you’ll have top notch wifi. You’re there for nature after all. The guides were outstanding. We were incredibly lucky to have Peter as our tracker and Peter as our guide. They could not have been more hospitable in terms of sundowners and refreshments, but were also always focused on safety along with maintaining a high level of professionalism at all times. We also got to see some incredible things on safari too. All in all, this is an amazing place and would fully recommend for a less commercial safari than normal.

Both my partner and I couldn’t stop smiling as soon as we arrived. Every staff member was so lovely and helpful. The food was different each meal time & was so nice! We stayed here for 3 nights which was the perfect time! If you’re lucky enough to have Colin as your guide and Mosco as your tracker then you’re in for a treat. They were so knowledgable and friendly and made our trip amazing! If you said you’d love to see a zebra then they’d go over and above to try and find it for you. Would recommend this place to everyone we speak to!

Everyone in the staff is so happy all the time, really polite and peaceful people. The game drives were perfect; we could see all the big 5 and many more animals during our 4 game drives. Our guides tried hard all the time to find the animals. And about the food…the food there is PERFECT. From the mini breakfast before the game drives to the dinner, nothing could be better. There were so many options, flavors…astonishing. Shiduli is a huge property, with great facilities.

The personal touches and experiences - the team went above and beyond. Everyone was absolutely lovely! We stayed in the Superior Suite - it was magical. The guides made sure we saw as much as possible and with the best views. Overall we had a wonderful time with a luxury vibe.
