Our stay at the Zoofari Lodge was unforgettable. The safari tent was beautiful, comfortable, and perfectly connected with the surrounding wildlife, waking up to giraffes and zebras outside was magical.Truly a special experience that I’d recommend to anyone. Can’t wait to go back!

Staying at Zoofari is a wonderful experience. Beautifully layed out tents with a patio where you can sit for hours watching the savannah animals. The 2 tours give you a look at some of the behind the scenes areas of the zoo. The food is amazing and so fresh. The staff are so helpful and friendly. We stayed for 2 nights and loved it.

The whole glamping with an animal view and tours were amazing, we’ve too many photos! The staff were also standout, so friendly and helpful to accommodate our needs. Worth the splurge for something a bit different, and for a good cause.
