Very disappointing!
Good day, must say I very disappointing, I made arrangements that we will be late at the lodge. We arrived at the entrance at about 20:20, we experience car problems about 8km from the place. We try to call for help but now one answered the phone. We had to phone for help and ask people 300km away to come and assist us. We eventually when back to Gauteng. The sad thing is that not once the people at the lodge call us to find out if everything is okay and why did we not get to our destination....very disappointing
