Comments: Guests to Uitspan Ranch
From our Visitor's Book...
 "Thank you Michael and Tienie for an unforgetable week with you and your wonderful family. I have waited and planned for this trip for many years and it has certainly meet my expectations. You have a beautiful country, property and hunting lodge. And I am very happy we choose to spend our time with you. The hunting was excellent and I enjoyed crawling on my hands and knees through the Kalahari - although I am sure there are easier ways of seeing the red sand up close!"

The food was excellant - especially the Springbok steaks!"

All your effort did not go unnoticed. God bless your family. Thank you - in friendship."

 "The reasons that we leave the comforts of our homes and the family that we love is to search the world for trophies. Trophies that will serve as memories long after the sand is out of our shoes. I have taken a trophy home that I never hunted, but rather it found me. Thank you for your hospitality. God bless."
~ Bryce Phillips, Texas, USA |
 "You and your family are of the nicest people we have ever met in all of our travels and life. We appreciate all of your hospitality and all of your efforts to accommodate us. Look forward to seeing all of you again in the near future."

 "Our days with you have gone by very fast. We will take back memories of some wonderful people, great hospitality, exotic places, the wonder of a life so different than ours, but so satisfying and happy. It produces happy families and close relationships..."

Did you know?
To adapt to the Kalahari's high temperatures, the Gemsbok antelope can allow its body temperature to rise up to an incredible
45°C (113°F).
This will kill other mammals. Why isn’t the gemsbok killed by it?
