Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve

"An EXCEPTIONAL experience all around!! The accommodations were comfortable, elegant and immaculately clean. Michael, our safari guide, was friendly, fun and incredibly knowledgeable, resulting in an amazing safari experience seeing the Big 5 as well as many other animals. And when we were on our bush walk, he even talked down a bull elephant who charged us – EPIC! The food was outstanding both at the facility and on safaris. The staff could not have been friendlier or more accommodating. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Leopard Hills for a superb safari experience!"

Xanatseni Private Camp

"A top-class private game resort with an intimate, friendly and welcoming atmosphere and excellent game viewing. The staff is remarkable. Rangers (especially Dean) are not only professional and highly knowledgeable, they are also wonderful, cultured persons you enjoy spending time with. Easy and friendly connection with other guests. Excellent food and service. The Frenchie and the Spanish will be back ! "

Honeyguide Tented Safari Camp - Khoka Moya

"Overall, it was a great experience. The staff were mature and enthusiastic, and we had two private camp safaris daily, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, which were very well-organized. My only minor feedback is that the driver's knowledge of animal locations could be improved, as one entire afternoon safari was spent mostly observing birds. The hotel's three meals were very substantial. I would definitely choose this place again if I visit South Africa in the future."

"Good place, less insects"

Motswari Private Game Reserve by Newmark

"What an amazing time we had at Motswari Lodge! We stayed in two bungalows overlooking the river. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable and it was a real pleasure to sit on our terrace watching the river. We saw crocodiles in the river and some impala came right up to the terrace! Our guide and tracker were Noel and Patrick and they felt like family! They were determined we would see a rhino before we left and Noel drove long distances so we could find one. We were so thrilled when we did. We were lucky to see all the Big Five plus lots of other animals. In fact all the staff were lovely and super helpful and friendly. The food was excellent, with lots of salads at lunch and a three course meal in the evenings. On our last night dinner was served alongside the river and it felt quite magical. We also had breakfast in the bush one morning and sun -downers overlooking a lake in the evening. It was a holiday we will never forget!"

Hamiltons Tented Camp

"From the moment we were served cold hand towels and mint tea when we arrived at Hamiltons to the African farewell song and dance by the staff, our family of 8 was awestruck by the beauty, serenity and luxury of the camp...both the surroundings and the staff. We started with a safety orientation like no other and within an hour we were on our first safari seeing animals we had only dreamed about walking within yards of the vehicle. Our meals were incredibly well prepared by an on-premise chef with wonderful selections to choose from. Breakfasts after our morning safaris were especially delicious...probably because we were up at 5am. The friendliness and service provided by all the staff members only added to the wonderful experience we all will remember for the rest of our lives."

Elephant Plains Game Lodge

Leopard Sands, Kruger Park

"Overall the experience was absolutely fantastic! The whole staff was so attentive and made the trip seamless. From included pick up to included drop. The rooms were great, and spacious. House keeping kepts rooms spotless and the laundry service for small amount was a great touch. Our drivers for both the safaris (Treaty) and excursions (Siya) were so knowledgeable plus welcoming! Cossy for dinning was so attentive and always so friendly. Ask for her when you do make it there! We ended up booking two massages because they were both absolutely amazing! Ecellent and Sammy both gave great massages and will miss them when I return to the USA. The whole experience is worth it, and I’ll be a repeat customer when I return to Skukuza!"

Blyde Canyon, A Forever Resort

"Our stay was in one of the fully equipped chalets, which provided everything necessary for a comfortable self-catering experience. While the accommodation was well-appointed, it felt somewhat expensive relative to the overall offering. For visitors primarily interested in sightseeing and using the chalet mainly as a place to sleep, there are more cost-effective options available in and around Graskop. A key advantage of staying at Blyde Forever Resort is its close proximity to several major attractions. These include the Three Rondavels viewpoint, which is an absolute highlight with truly breathtaking scenery, as well as Bourke’s Luck Potholes, Berlin Falls, Lisbon Falls, God’s Window, and the Pinnacle Rock. The resort also offers a variety of excellent hiking trails, featuring beautiful streams, waterfalls, and stunning viewpoints, making it an appealing choice for nature enthusiasts."
