Tau Game Lodge is a positive experience, but I do think things can be improved for the price of the booking. Its a perfect location for the Instagram fanatics and the social media hungry, so can be little frustrating when you just want to enjoy the experience and others just want to post it.
James our guide was very good and accommodated our young son for him to experience the safari through a shorter trip, as the main safari trips are 3 hours twice per day.
Children's facilities could be improved. Plastic play area in a safari reserve doesn't fit the image.
The employees were very good and engaging with our son and I thank them for that as there were limited facilities for him during the long days. You can't really leave the complex.
Swimming pools are too cold during the off season and could easily be heated through solar heating. You couldn't relax in the pool as it was so cold.
Food is good, but not worth the cost of booking. It should be better and offer better alternatives, and charging for soft drinks is a bit of a farce.
Safari is a positive experience and the water hole does allow you to see the animals without joining all the safari trips. Its a one time experience.
I did enjoy seeing many guests decked out in their designer safari gear they will only wear once. Its sad that people can't just enjoy the experience instead of having to post the "show". I understand now why the complex doesn't link WIFI to the lodges.

This was the best stay, wildly above and beyond my expectations which were already high. The entire staff was incredibly nice, professional and accommodating. Just to name a few, Morgan, Rosetta, Joyce, Rosetta, Poppy as GM, Lucia, Evelyn and Many, Many more including housekeeping and maintenance, were just top notch at what they do. Herman as a ranger was just so much fun, so professional and knowledgeable. You can tell the park cares so much about conservation while the lodge cares so much about hospitality. It was a blast. I can't recommend enough, and the moment I can I'd love to return. Can't thank the staff enough for making this an incredibly memorable trip for our family.

Tau Game Lodge is an ideal location to explore the wildlife and the beauty of the African bushveld in South Africa’s North West Province.
