12.22.23

Patrick Loved his private tours, shooting and riding. He loved the property and the whole experience.

01.12.23

NEKUPE isn’t so much a hotel as a chance to stay in a beautiful and inspiring nature reserve with the attention of supremely professional and delightful guides, cooks, drivers, masseurs, horsemen, naturalists…the list is endless. All of them achieve the magic combination of professionalism and friendliness to perfection, so it seems unfair to pick out any, but for a birdwatcher, Alex was the perfect guide; and for her extraordinary hard work in arranging the recovery of our customs-confiscated binoculars, as well as her amazing attentiveness throughout our stay, Josseling deserves special praise. A family ranging in age from 5 to 68, none of us has never been better looked after anywhere on earth. NEKUPE really is a paradise.

01.11.23

Every member of staff was excellent. Lewis, Osman, Danny Perfection! Josselyn who greeted us, we have no suggestions you have thought of everything!!
