March 2021Unbelievably Wonderful
As a frequent visitor to many countries in Africa and to safari life, I was absolutely blown away by the caliber of the guides, the animal interaction and the hospitality of Tigress Lodge. In fact, after spending weeks on safari in both Kenya and Tanzania prior to my trip to Tigress Lodge, I can say without hesitation that my time in Tiger Canyon was beyond compare. Put this place on your bucket list!! Lisa Foley”
