Petra HarwaldtI had the most wonderful time at Entabeni with Cecile and her horses. Beautiful Big Five game reserve, great horses – reliable and forward – fabulous food (also for vegs) and a perfect guide who knew everything about the animals and the surroundings. Have seen hippo’s, rhino, elli’s, cheetahs, girafs and a lot of zebra, wildebeest and warthog from the horseback – even a wildebeest giving birth. Also: picknicks in the bush, superb accomodation, even the sun was shining EVERY day smile-emoticon:-). I’d definitely recommend this place!
