Needles Lodge is taking COVID-19 seriously.

SANParks has launched a study to gauge tourists’ intentions to travel to South African national parks post lockdown. While opinions, feelings and plans are all dependent on external conditions and personal circumstances that might change very quickly in the immediate future, it will provide them with some indication of how individuals feel about travel right now. The study is anticipated to be repeated again in 3 or 6 months’ time to see whether travel plans have changed since lockdown was lifted.
