Elephants Safari Lodge - Bellevue Forest Reserve
C\O N10 and Alicedale Turnoff Olifantskop Lodge, 6130 Paterson, South Africa – Great location - show map
The tent is very cozy and comfortable and the view from the own little balcony is stunning! The food (breakfast & dinner) is fresh and delicious. All the staff is extremely friendly and attentive and they made us feel at home. We did a giraffe safari with Bradley and loved it! He is a great guide!
