  • After a couple weeks in Cape Town, we flew to Kruger National Park to go on our first African safari. We stayed at Royal Malewane, a luxury lodge where people like Bill Gates, Justin Bieber, Elton John, Oprah and many more have spent their holidays in the last few years and it was an incredible experience!
    The lodge is located in the private Thornybush reserve, just next to the Kruger National Park. Royal Malewane is part of the Royal Portfolio, a South African hotel group, owned by Phil and Liz Biden who also own the Silo in Cape Town and La Residence in Franschhoek amongst other properties.
    During our stay we also got the chance to have a site visit of The Farmstead, another luxury lodge by The Royal Portfolio with only 3 suites and 1 villa.

    Did you have to take anti malaria meds?

    • @laurandnicolas
      @laurandnicolas  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We did for a few days, but Laura got some nasty side effects and basically every person who lives there year round will tell you not to take them so we stopped taking them. In the end it’s your own choice and you should do what feels right for you 🥰❤️

    I am stunned Royalty and A-List Celebrities are not queuing round the block to follow in your footsteps. Maybe they don’t know who you are!
