My wife and I visited Monwana with her sister and husband. We stayed three nights and it was an amazing experience. The weather was great that time of year and we so enjoyed the morning and evening game drives. Our guide and tracker were extremely knowledgeable and also a lot of fun. We loved our accommodations and spending time in the main lodge. The food was great and the people were warm and so enjoyable to be around. And of course the animals! What an elevated way to experience an African safari.... Truly an unforgettable time!

Our stay at this safari lodge exceeded every expectation. We went as a family of 11. What made it so special was its intimate size—it never felt crowded, and every experience was thoughtfully tailored to us. The staff took the time to learn our interests and preferences, making every game drive and activity feel personal and unique. The chef took time to ask about our preferences on food and catered to us accordingly. Additionally, our two guides - Colin and EJ tailored special experiences for the 3 kids in the group from allowing them to drive the land cruisers to shooting targets. Colon and EJ were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating insights about the wildlife and surrounding landscape while ensuring we had unforgettable sightings. Our trackers Benny and Ishmael were equally attentive and skilled in their trade. The attention to detail throughout our stay, from the warm hospitality to the beautifully appointed accommodations and exceptional meals, made us feel truly cared for. If you’re looking for an authentic safari experience with personalized service rather than a large, busy resort, this lodge is an absolute gem. The combination of luxury, outstanding wildlife encounters, and genuine hospitality created memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime. We can’t wait to return!

We cannot think of a better opportunity to experience and enjoy South Africa’s wildlife, nature, flora, and fauna in an intimate and exclusive setting than a four-night stay at Monwana Lodge in the Thornybush Game Reserve. A minimum stay of four nights was highly recommended for the ultimate safari experience—combining game drives with the attentive pampering provided by the lodge’s exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, who take genuine pride and pleasure in serving guests within this magnificent setting. This recommendation held very true, a four night stay was an absolute treat and unforgettable experience. We are certain that you will leave Monwana with a mind full of intense, heartwarming, and lifelong memories—and a desire to return someday.

Our family returned from our trip to South Africa two weeks ago and we are still processing our amazing time at Monwana. We had a large multigenerational group of 12 people - from ages 8 to 70 - and every single one of us had an unforgettable time. The hospitality, thoughtfulness from staff, and care in details were evident in every aspect of our stay. Our guides and trackers and staff made the visit so special for our kids. Between game drives, they played soccer, set up a shooting range, played chess - our kids wanted to spend every minute with the staff and no one wanted to nap or rest! The lodge, our suites, the safari vehicles, the common spaces were all immaculate and luxurious but also felt comfortable, relaxing, and inviting. Their commitment to sustainability is commendable and we highly recommend taking the behind the scenes sustainability tour to appeciate all of Monwana's efforts in respecting and integrating into the environment. Thank you for making our family trip so special, and we cannot wait to go back to visit all of our newfound friends at Monwana.
