Hi everyone!

Me and the beloved one are getting married in September and I will be returning to my homeland of SA for the first time in 15 years. We're there a month and are pretty much travelling the whole place using our own transport (4x4), and mostly on a tight budget, so some camping, etc. However, for the first 3 nights/4 days, we'd like to spend some money on luxury in the Kruger...we've looked a the extensive lists of game lodges but there is so much to choose from! The best quote we've had is from Camp Shawu, about £400 pp for 4 days, inclusive of game drives, meals and accomodation. Does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone stayed at Camp Shawu? And we have a fair idea of an itinery, but does anyone have a few 'not to be missed' suggestions?

Can't wait!

Cheers

Keri

Hello Keri

Congratulations on your impending marriage. I am also staying in the UK and originally from South Africa but my last trip was about 2 years ago.

You will probably not recognise the place after 15 years. But if you want to get some more info on safaris, try these South Africa trip reports as they provide some useful tips.

You are going to have a great time. I'm jealous.
