Hi Elsa, thank you so much for your answer. I've sent email but unlucky none answered me.
I also think that reservation went throught, I am only afraid somehow reservation will be cancelled and then I will find myself with no place to sleep.
I attach a screenshot of 'my existing reservations' page. Does it look like everything is ok?
The 2 advices (orange and red about changes and pending payment) are always present in that page? Or do they mean something is wrong with my reservation?
I attach the screenshot of the page.
Thank you again for your help, truly appreciated 😊

They sure are BN3 is available on the website. I was told via email there are 5 of these 3 bed units completed (double bed plus one single bed). There is one completed 4 bed unit (double bed plus beunk bed) that will be BN4 but I have not seen that one on the SAN Parks site yet. I was so happy to book BN3 for our upcoming trip.

Can you give preferences according to bungalow numbers when making a reservation?
I didn’t see the possibility when we made reservations for our previous trip.

Which email address can we use when we want to reserve a specific bungalow?

Thank you for your help.

It will be my first time staying in a safari tent (Skukuza) in a matter of weeks. Do they have lighting, or should I bring my own? I’ll be taking a torch anyway for walking about camp after dark. Thanks

Also, does anybody else find it irritating that the Sanparks camp shops close when gates close? It means that when I return to camp when gates close, I can’t then buy whatever meat I fancy chucking on the braii!

Welcome to the forum Ella.

The tents will have their own lighting but a good idea to carry a torch for walking to the ablutions etc after dark.

I am pretty sure the shops stay open until 7pm all year to allow guests to visit them after gate closing.

Enjoy your trip and time in the park. :thumbs_up:

Thanks for the reply and the warm welcome!
That’s good to know on both accounts: the lighting and the shop closing time! ChatGPT was telling me 6pm closing, but it’s certainly not the first time it’s been incorrect!
You’ll be seeing a lot from me on the forum: I’ve got a million questions.
