The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Nixon the lodge manager assisted us in taking our luggage to the room. All of the lodges are connected by a wooden walkway in the bush. The rooms were very nice and recently renovated. There is a great viewing deck where you can view the wild life. We saw 6 giraffes and several impalas the morning we were checking out which was exciting!! I would definitely recommend the Panzi Lodge to others!
Did Panzi Lodge ist eine klare Empfehlung 10/10. Wir waren die einzige Gäste in dieser Nacht und es wurde sogar extra für uns gekocht, das Essen war super lecker & alle sehr nett. Wir kommen wieder!
