The Last Word Kitara

“Book here immediately - amazing game drives abound!”

Hands down the BEST hotel, atmosphere and people we've ever encountered in our 30 years of travel -- this was the most outstanding safari lodge that we've been to in the whole world ** (and we've been to the Masai Mara / Kruger / & the Dubai desert before)! ** It's a small, intimate, and beautifu… Más

Hands down the BEST hotel, atmosphere and people we've ever encountered in our 30 years of travel -- this was the most outstanding safari lodge that we've been to in the whole world ** (and we've been to the Masai Mara / Kruger / & the Dubai desert before)! ** It's a small, intimate, and beautifully decorated lodge with only 6 guest rooms and the best food we've ever had between the phenomenal game drives! A huge shoutout to Chef Sibu who is friendly, accommodating, and talented. The staff here truly go above and beyond in all they do (Susan, Marla, Rejane, Pierre, Nathan, Matt, & Connor) and the drinks they make are delicious as well. They are so passionate & kind - very respectful and warm to each other and every guest - you will immediately feel like family! Kitara really goes out of their way for every little detail including fresh flora and fauna after servicing your room plus delightful bath salts and bubbles to relax. The outdoor shower is a nice touch, and an extra bonus: you get bedtime stories at night! During our 4 night stay at Kitara, we were able to see all of the Big Five as well as a truly unforgettable lion kill. We also went in the season of dung beetles rolling their ball too! From the big to the small, every living thing here is truly valued by your game driver. We had Connor & learned so much about the Bush from the termites to the trees to the birds! He made a great team with our amazing tracker Vusi - we were so lucky to end up with both of them. Also, this lodge sits on a private reserve so our stellar team was able to go off road / trail which is not possible in Kruger nor the Masai Mara. You will not regret choosing the Last Word Kitara for your next trip!

We paired our stays at The Last Word Long Beach and Kitara, and could not have been happier with the decision. We’ve stayed at lodges priced three times higher, and we can confidently say that Last Word Kitara delivers a safari experience every bit as memorable, with impeccable service to match — all at a third of the price. Amazing value for money for the quality of game driver and overall lodge experience! It is worth highlighting that Kitara sits within a private nature reserve, which made the game drives exceptionally exclusive — more often than not, it was just our vehicle and the wildlife. Over our 4D3N stay, we were fortunate enough to spot all of the Big Five, a truly unforgettable achievement. Adding to the magic was the breathtaking helicopter flight over Blyde Canyon, thoughtfully arranged by Kitara. In a moment that felt almost cinematic, we spotted the final member of the Big Five — the rhino — from the air. An extraordinary experience, executed flawlessly from start to finish. With only six suites, the atmosphere is wonderfully quiet, intimate, and attentive. The food is generous and beautifully prepared, adding to the sense of comfort and care. Overall, we feel incredibly fortunate to have discovered this gem. A remarkable stay in every way.

“The last word Kitara is very special and the team are brilliant. This is not just a 5 star holiday it is an experience.”

This was an amazing place. The raw experience of seeing the animals in the wild with great guide/tracker. We hugely recommend this as a top place to go. Touches the heart to see the care of the wild and conservation. On top of it being 5 star all the way 😀

“Wow !! Truly wonderful experience”

We have just returned from the most wonderful vacation spent at Last Word Kitara. Managers Susan & Pierre were the perfect hosts, although every single staff member was pleasant, courteous and extremely helpful in every way. Everyone went out of their way to ensure we had the most memorable stay. This game lodge felt very homely, spotlessly clean and on a stunning location. The food served was of the highest quality and the chefs have to be complimented on the variety of options available every day. The game drives with our guide Pierre and tracker Vusi were absolutely fantastic. Pierre’s knowledge of all the animals was very impressive and we managed not only to see the big 5 but I think virtually all animals on the reserve. Our highlights would have to be seeing a Leopard with a kill and a pride of ten Lions calmly stroll past our vehicle, absolutely unforgettable experience. The only downside was that we had to leave.
