The Best Bush Experience in South Africa

Our time at Abelana was the BEST! With all the friendship from John & Marge (and all the staff). It was most definitely not only the best South African Experience but also the best human experience with all the great times we spent there that made it so special. From the moment we were greeted at the reserve's gate and at the main lobby through our entire stay we encountered attention to every detail and a lovely care towards us. We wish only the best to all the staff and can't wait to go back! Thiago & Marina
