We really had an amazing stay at Basil's Boma (for our mini honeymoon). Everything was beyond our expectations. Joanne was a perfect host - would greet us friendly whilst walking around. She has told us about nice places we should visit and adrenaline experiences in the Hartebeespoort Dam area. Will definitely be back again.
