Guest Comments for Bukela Lodge
"We had a fantastic holiday and found the accommodation that you booked for us to be superb. Service and cleanliness in all of the accommodation booked was excellent. Particular favourites were Coral Tree Cottages where we found the hosts to be really warm and friendly and Katie really enjoyed playing with their kids and the sandpit, whilst the service at Thylitshia in Oudtshoorn and Bukela Lodge was outstanding.
Our stay at Bukela Lodge could not have been better the food, service, friendliness was outstanding nothing was too much trouble. They made the whole family feel really welcome and were great with Katie and Billy. We did 6 game drives and saw masses of animals including close encounters with a family of lions and the rhinos. We were lucky enough to have our own ranger Sandra who took us out on our own vehicle which worked fantastically with the kids. We usually took them with us for the morning drive and arranged babysitting for the evening drive. We would strongly recommend Bukela both for people with and without children.
Thanks for organising a great holiday we enjoyed it so much that we are hoping to return."

The staff were particularly helpful/attentive, and made us all feel very welcome. The accommodation was excellent and the food was very good.

"I have just returned from a fab holiday in South Africa which you helped me arranged. The accomodation was all fabulous and we had a great time.
The Bukela Lodge in Amakhala Game Reserve was amazing and we saw such fantastic wildlife. Our host Elza and her staff where wonderful attentive people, could not fault the place at all, and I will recommend it to friends. Bradach Manor in Knysna was a charming place with wonderful staff and the most amazing views over the Lagoon. The Oceana apartments where ideally placed and we had a great view of the Apostles and Table Mountain, when there was no cloud!
All in all a wonderful dream holiday and thank you for all your help.
Do Travel Butlers only specialise in Africa or do they arrange holidays worldwide? I sincerely hope to be using you again and recommending you."
