4 guests' feedbackThe place is close to the Kruger. A nice place to stay overnight if you like African culture.
Second time staying here. Realy nice place. Friendly staff and very good service. Close to the Kruger National Park.
Good value for money. My third time staying at Shik Shack. It is about 30 min drive from the Orpen gate to the Kruger National Park. There are 3 tents equipped with good beds and electricity. (It is like luxury camping). My parents stayed in one of Rondawels, and were impressed with the thought that the host has put into the small things to make their stay memorable.
Shik Shak is 15 min. from the Orpan gate. Easy to find, very friendly and helpful staff. Ideal for the person who enjoys a good time around a campfire.
