Safari Tart

Welcome to my world

I am a safari tart - in the best possible sense of the word. I travel to African safari lodges for a living and write coffee table travel books and articles for magazines. I know its a hell of a job, but somebody's got to do it!

About this blog

If you are thinking of going on safari in Africa, this blog will help you decide where to go, where to stay and what to avoid. I have visited over 150 safari lodges and this is a live report from Africa with my personal opinion of the good, the bad and the best of African safari.

Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge

Posted in Animal Antics, Madikwe, South Africa by Carrie on February 2, 2010

 

Guests at Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge had a surprise visit from an opportunistic elephant, who simply couldn’t resist the cool, crystal clear, swimming pool water on a hot spring day in Madikwe Game Reserve.

 Buffalo Ridge is a community owned safari lodge in the beautiful Madikwe Game Reserve of northern South Africa, near the Botswana border. I love this area.

Do you speak Russian? If so, perhaps you can tell me what the comment below says. It’s nice to know this site has readers from all over the world, even if I can’t always understand what they say!
