Offering garden views, Langa Langa Safari Camp - Inc 2 Kruger Safaris Daily in Sabi Sand Game Reserve offers accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and a bar. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. Langa Langa Tented Safari Camp with its safari drives into both Kruger and Sabi Sands is extremely value for money. It allowed us two different experiences - one from a short distance while on the road (Kruger) and upclose and personal with the animals (Sabi Sands). The tents were very comfortable, the spread of food provided daily was more than adequate with 3 meals provided a day in the price, the food was absolutely delicious. Langa Langa staff were all extremely kind, happy and hardworking - both in the camp and on safari. Jack, our Langa Langa guide who brought us into Kruger for safaris, and Jurie, our Sabi Sands guide who brought us into Sabi Sands for safaris, both went the extra mile to get us great sightings of the Big 5 (which we did!). We had an absolutely wonderful time at Langa Langa and would highly recommend it to our friends and family. (:

Featuring mountain views, Isambane Camp in Balule Game Reserve features accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and a bar. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge. The staff is absolutely amazing! Shayna, Emma and Angela were great hosts and guides, the staff was awesome and the Chef is GREAT! Safe and delicious place for vegans! The game drives were very nice and fun, the girls know their bush! We got to see the big five in only 2 days. The cabin was nice and cozy, even though it gets pretty hot during the day (at night it becomes bearable with the fan on). Good hot shower! The elephants in the pool are breathtaking and the highlight of this amazing place.

Africa on Foot is located in Klaserie Private Nature Reserve. The rustic-style camp features thatched chalet accommodation, a bar and a viewing deck with splash pool and sun loungers.

The chalets are equipped with a clothing rack, solar powered lamps, mosquito nets and en-suite bathroom with outdoor shower. Water at the camp is gas-heated. Fantastic location, beautiful small scale lodge with ultra pleasant and friendly staff. The activities were fantastic, especially the morning game walks. Being escorted by two very knowledgeable Rangers, we felt safe in the bush and immensely enjoyed the walks and all that we saw and learned these days.

Offering an outdoor pool and a veranda with views of the Northern Drakensbergs, Mbizi Bush Lodge is a small lodge nestled in the Grietjie Game Reserve. Free WiFi access is available,

Mbizi Bush Lodge serves a 3-course dinner and a full breakfast. Guests can relax on the terrace. Other facilities offered at the property include a shared lounge. The property offers free parking. Most beautiful lodge in the middle of the wild nature, not fenced (which adds to the feeling of excitement, but the owners were very careful and made us feel safe the whole time). The design of the lodge is tasteful, in the spirit of Africa, elegant and calm. The nature around is simply breathtaking, and the most amazing thing is that animals come the lodge pool to drink water. Elephants, giraffes, zebras and more arrived. It's a magical moment when it happens. The room was comfortable, great bed, shower and AC. The owner of the lodge cooks incredible food, every day and every meal the dishes change and they are at the level of a gourmet restaurant. I have no words to describe how special the experience was, I'm so glad we chose to stay at this place, and I wish we had more time (I recommend booking a minimum of 3 nights). There is an option to take a game drive to watch the animals around, we did this twice and got to see lions, elephants, giraffes and quite a few other animals, highly recommended.

The tented chalets situated within the main lodge area come with a deck and a seating area. Certain chalets are equipped with a bath, shower and free toiletries, while one chalet, known as chiDanga, is equipped with an en suite shower which opens onto the deck. The photos on Booking.com don't do justice to this delightful camp, with a capacity of 6 guests! Lovely setting around a magnificent pool area,and large luxury tent accomodation.Food was fabulous, and the game drives were great,in particular our last morning one where we sat amongst a pride of lions,and then a herd of Elephants.Thanks Hardis (and Valerie),and Neil.

The airy lodges at the Motswari Private Game Reserve feature thatched roofs, each equipped with air conditioning and unrivalled savannah views from large wooden decks. They combine traditional décor with a designer touch and include a lounge and bathrooms with bathtub. Fantastic! I must first mention the staffs! We felt so so taken care of and they were so friendly and polite and was there to help 24/7! We didn't want to leave this place at all because we felt so spoilt. Our guide Eden and Magic were the most amazing. They were so good at their jobs and we were able to see more than what we expected on our game drive. I hope everyone who stays here gets to experience Eden's and Magic's knowledge and gets to go on game drives with them. Please request for them I am sure you won't regret it. Next up is the f&b team! Special mentions to Timothy, Craven, Noah, Elizabeth (the head chef) for looking after all our dietary requirements. I ate so well! Lunches were so wholesome and so earthy and good for the soul! The housekeeping did an amazing job at cleaning our rooms TWICE day! I cannot recommend this place enough. I didn't want to leave and could've easily stayed another week. It was just so relaxing.
