I could not ask for a better birthday, this weekend was awesome. The staff and everyone made me and my mother feel so at home, the view we had was absolutely phenomenal, the elephants were big and friendly giants (that we miss dearly) and the food was delicious!! It is so strange being back in
Port Elizabeth, You hear the noises and wish to be back there with peace and quiet. The special places i miss are also the veranda and jacuzzi.I will definitely come visit again, hope it will be as soon as I wish! Thank you for your hospitality. PS: Give a big hug and kiss to Thaba, Duma and Mukwa!!!!

We so enjoyed our Elephant Back Safari experience. Your Lodge Manager, Colin & all the staff were very polite & efficient. We slept very comfortably & felt your tents are the most up market we have used. We were worried that being winter, we might be cold. However that was certainly not the case. Wonderful heating arrangements & pure bliss. It was so exciting to meet the Elephants & have that close contact. Feeding them was so special. If eventually you can have a seat on one of them, it might help for the older generation & younger children. Thank you for that special life time experience.

We would like to thank all the staff members who made it possible for us to have the most wonderful experience of a lifetime on Saturday, 20 September 2008. Your enthusiasm and love for the elephants and kindness will always be remembered and we have now ticked off “interacting with elephants" which we thought was a far away dream, from our bucket list and thank you for making it so special. Of course a special thank you to the gentle giants is also in order.

On my visit to Africa l hoped to see elephants. But to ride, walk, dine & watch them swim was beyond my dreams. Thank you all for giving me the memory of a lifetime. The staff was wonderful and l learnt more about elephants today than l have ever known. Thank you.

Fantastic way to spend a morning, the children and the grown ups. We all had fantastic time with the elephants and very friendly staff. I will recommend it to all my friends but not sure how many will make it from Athens. Thanks!

What a wonderful experience. Difficult to say who were the real stars-Duma, Thaba & Mukwa or Walter, Hastings & Ute.

Mukwa, Thaba, & Duma have brought a new dimension to the Zuurberg Valley. A flight in "Sweet Chariot" to land in this beautiful valley. And to be greeted by an elephant is the most special of all moments and walking with them through wonderful indigenous bush has been an experience we will never forget. Thank you for this most special time .

Rob Wildsmith & family
You do not realise how beautiful elephants are in their natural habitat until you have opportunity like this. We have had the most amazing time from the time we landed, and will always remember. Thank you Mukwa, Duma & Thaba.

Thank you so much for a magical morning. It's wonderful to see man and elephants co-existing so peacefully-as for the yellowwoods...
