Bob Gengler – the full safari report

Bob stayed with us a few weeks ago, and had a grand time. Well, allow me to just copy-paste the email he sent to me (I got his authorisation!).

“I spent one of the best holidays ever with my best friend at the Vuyani lodge. Not only the game drives and the scenery made it so special, but also the great Vuyani-team! They do everything just to make you feel comfortable.
Every single game drive was exciting because you never knew in advance what animals you would have the chance to spot. Have a look at these pictures all shot at the Moditlo Reserve at the beginning of May 2014. It was amazing to see all these animals in their natural environment. We were very lucky to see the lions a few times and very close. One of the most exciting moments was when we got off the Landcruiser to observe the cheetahs laying (approx. 30 meters of distance from us) in the dried river bed. A few days later we saw them together with a cute baby-cheetah! The monkey on one of the pictures came along when we were sitting near the pool and he finally sat on the top of the roof of the lodge, the other ones were hanging on the trees around. Another picture shows Savanna, the wild cat living at the lodge.”
 

Speaking of which, photos: Here some of the best shots Bob was kind to email me. They are all real gems!

Many thanks to Bob for allowing me to share them with all our fans and future fans (hopefully there will be many more!)
