Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Shindzela is a very tasteful lodge designed to encourage you to unplug yourself from modern technology and immerse in the African bush landscape and recharge yourself. The staff is excellent, my guide Lauren and tracker Edward really went out of their way to help us see all that the reserve has to offer (including the Big Five animals, and much more than that).
Summary: I had a really memorable time there and would definitely recommend Shindzela
