We could ramble and rave for days about why we love [highlight] The Ant Collection [/highlight] located in South Africa’s unspoilt Waterberg region. Old-school family charm, horseback riding safaris, passionate guides, fine dining, and practically guaranteed rhino viewing are a few of our favourites.
But when the Ant Collection reached out to their [highlight] Facebook community via a post [/highlight] asking previous guests to share their favourite Ants based memories through pictures and stories, the love for the safari lodge came pouring out. Notification by notification, the interaction on the post was astounding and a good testament to the positive affection guests have towards their home away from home safari lodge.
Here’s what the guests revealed on Facebook:
Joanna Bink: “So many exciting memories of the horseback riding, but this one is probably the most magic moment to me. An unforgettable lifetime experience at Ant’s Nest & Ant’s Hill Bush Homes.”
Olympia Granger: “Cool image my mom captured at the sundowner; the gentle giant!”
Els van Geijn-Oomen: “Easy, within the first 5 minutes of our first game drive. We just arrived an hour before. What you would call: out of the comfort zone (big time). But we will never forget…”
Silke Bosch: “There are many favourite pictures, but this one is somehow special… A shame there is no pictures with sound. I will never forget “this noise!” We need to come back! Hugs to all of you XXX”
Yasmin Bemath: “Taken at the airstrip whilst setting up sundowners with Pippa – Nov 14.”
February is lovingly creeping onto our calendars, but love is in the air every month out of the year at the Ant Collection and the guests are not shy to share their adoration for this luxury lodge.
If you’ve visited the [highlight] Ant Collection [/highlight] and want to share your pictures, go on over to their [highlight] Facebook page [/highlight] and join in on the love.

More about the Good Safari Guide: Their name gives a good hint as to what the ‘meat and potatoes’ of this company is all about. They’re an independent media that faithfully represents the news and reviews of the safari travel industry. With a combined experience of over 100 years, they so playfully say, “what we don’t know about safaris isn’t worth knowing.”
Until the end of February the [highlight] Good Safari Guide [/highlight] will be running a #safaristory campaign, where they would like any and every safari-goer to share their experience with the travel-enthused community. They will be taking submissions via [highlight] Facebook [/highlight], [highlight] Twitter [/highlight], and even direct email at [highlight] editor@goodsafariguide.com [/highlight]. Keep a close eye on this campaign, as submissions will be published in an upcoming blog, giving all safari-goers a chance to become Good Safari Guide famous!
