Sabie River Bush Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"O hotel é incrível! A vista do restaurante e piscina para o Kruger vale por toda a experiência. A equipe é incrível, super atenciosos e gentis, desde a recepção até os guias do Safari. Destaco Kabelo, um dos garçons, que sempre nos recebia com sorrisos e simpatia. Fechamos os safáris com o próprio hotel e foi a melhor opção possível! A comida também é bem gostosa. Não temos nada a reclamar."

Lion Sands River Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about the lodge was amazing from the room to the safaris with our guide Barry and tracker Eddy. Ntombi was amazing during the meals. All staff was very friendly and made our short stay amazing. I would recommend this lodge to anyone going there. I will definitely if I get the opportunity. "

Kruger Shalati - Train on the Bridge and Garden Suites

10/10 Excellent

"This was the best hospitality I've ever experienced. My son and I loved staying there. It was so unique to be on the train, and it was very clean and luxurious. Our guide, Thuli, was amazing and extremely knowledgable on our game drives. Highly recommend her too! "

aha Skukuza Safari Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"IF you want to see animals this is your place. The ride from the Safari Lodge along the Sabi river takes about an hour in each direction and you'll see more animals then you've ever seen in your life! Truly. Majestic. Awesome trip. You don't need more than a couple or few days unless you want a safari experience and stay in expensive tents etc. This place is perfect for the casual traveler who wants to see animals animals and more animals. Heavenly! And the lodge is perfect like a vacation place not a safari place. "

Leopard Sands, Kruger Park

10/10 Excellent
