    We had a wonderful getaway at Tenikwa! From our comfy suite to the delicious and beautifully prepared meals everything was pure joy. You are surrounded by nature... cheeky fowl life, gorgeous animals and the roar of lions in the night is the order of the day. We will definitely be going back for a second visit.

    We had a wonderful time at Tenikwa. The staff went out of their way to make you feel special. The animals are well taken care of.
