The whole experience was magical, and one we will remember for the rest of our lives. We were blown away by the efforts made by Danielle in hosting us, from the amazing home cooked food in such a beautiful setting to making sure we had clean rooms, new towels, and made beds to return to every morning. As for the safari, it is difficult to find the words to describe how amazing this was. We really appreciated JP sharing his experiences and knowledge of the animals and his patience in answering our many questions. There is nothing like seeing an elephant with its baby walk right past you or a lion so full after a kill that it can barely move. In the end, we saw zebras, giraffes, rhinos, hippos, impala, rare wild dogs, and many other animals and birds. We already miss our coffee by the river as the sun comes up...it was perfect in every way.

Beautiful safari lodge with excellent staff and stunning game drives. Thomas (our main game driver) was excellent and made the drives so much fun. Whilst we unfortunately didn’t see a leopard (due to the numerous lions and elephants pushing them out), we were lucky to see all of the other big 5 on numerous occasions, including lion cubs! The accommodation was the ultimate glamping - comfy beds, in an air conditioned tent with an en-suite power shower. There was also a veranda overlooking the bush and watering hole to spot the animals. The food exceeded all expectations - as a vegetarian I was also looked after for every meal with thoughtful and delicious dishes. The sundowners at the viewpoint overlooking the African sunset cannot be beaten. I wholeheartedly recommend this lodge for any type of traveller looking for a South African safari.

Phomola Manor is an oasis in Greater Kruger with a stunning garden of succulents greeting you as you approach the house. The property is frequented by a spectacular range of birds from iridescent sun birds to a number of owls spotted from the comfort of the garden during our stay. Lindie is a fabulous host who has gone to great effort to furnish the manor with everything we could possibly need for and more. She kindly arranged a wonderful meal on our first night on request. We had some wonderful game drives in Grietjie with very experienced and knowledgeable guides organised by Lindie. We also did a day trip into Kruger which was very easy to do. The highlight during our stay was going on a bush walk with Eugene. His infectious enthusiasm and abundant knowledge were so informative. Approaching a pride of lions on foot and a safe close encounter with elephants got our hearts beating and created life long memories.

Chacma is the perfect place from which to explore the big 5 and the broader SA safari experience. The setting is natural and beautiful with meals eaten outside to make the most of the waterhole and potential for wildlife spotting. Between safari rides comfortable rooms, shady spots across the camp and the pool provide the perfect setting for reading and relaxation. With just three rooms at Chacma, you’re guaranteed a much more intimate experience than staying at a bigger location. As a solo traveller the real highlight was the friendly and fun team behind Chacma: Matt, Josh and Charlie are fantastic, passionate guides who guaranteed that each trip out provided memorable, safe experiences while Karen, Lynx and the wider team at Chacma ensured a comfortable stay. You’ll learn so much from this team and they are only too happy to share their knowledge and experience with you. A special place I can’t wait to return to.

Nyati Lodge is a stunning oasis of tranquility set in 10,000 hectares of game filled reserve. We stayed in a beautiful riverside bungalow, spacious and well equipped. It was a short walk to the main buildings with the restaurant and pool. Staff were attentive and friendly across the board. There are two game drives a day, and we were lucky enough to see all Big Five animals during our two day stay, a testament to the guides’ expertise. When not on drive there was a gym, driving range and pétanque pitch for those who fancied an activity, and hammocks, comfortable chairs and a pool for those who would rather relax. The food was of a high quality both in taste and presentation. We had an absolutely fantastic few days and would highly recommend to anyone looking to go on safari in the Kruger!

    My partner and I stayed for 2 nights as a birthday gift. It was amazing. Guide, Millie was fantastic and we were able to see an abundance of game throughout our 4 game drives. On arriving back to the lodge after our morning or evening drive, Hardus and the other staff had breakfast/dinner ready to go and it was delicious. During the day, we sat by the pool and watched the elephants stroll by! We would 10/10 recommend.

    We had a very relaxed experience in the bush. A lot of personal attention from everybody. Food was well catered for and of very good quality. The game drives, morning and afternoon, were excellent, the guides Nico and Vivian, did a very good job. Swimming pool was very neat and also necessary in this time of the year. WiFi was very good.
