Honeyguide Khoka Moya Camp
10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely incredible stay! Had a phenomenal guide, KK, who was excellent as a spotter, guide and genuinely nice and kind. All the staff were helpful and friendly, a pleasure to be around. First night was a resounding success with a “bush braai” in the boma. Spectacular welcome to the reserve. Thanks to all there for a truly memorable trip!"
AM Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I recently stayed at AM Lodge in Hoedspruit, South Africa, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. Cal and Origin were waiting for us at the airport when we landed, and after a short 20-minute drive to the lodge, we were welcomed with cold towels and refreshing drinks. We were given a tour of the beautiful property before being escorted to our room, which was absolutely phenomenal—luxurious, private, and perfectly designed to immerse you in the surrounding bush. Shortly after arriving, we enjoyed a game drive on the property where we saw rhinos, zebras, giraffes, and impalas. It was the perfect introduction to the African wilderness. Later that afternoon, we enjoyed spa treatments before having a wonderful dinner at the lodge. One of the things that makes AM Lodge so special is their ability to curate a completely personalized experience. The lodge arranged a full-day safari in Kruger National Park with Bush Baby Adventures, and our guide, Aurelia , was outstanding. With 25 years of experience, an incredible eye for wildlife, and a wealth of knowledge, he made the day unforgettable. We entered Kruger shortly after sunrise and almost immediately encountered a pride of lions. The entire day was magical, majestic, and truly a bucket-list experience. When we returned that evening, the lodge surprised my husband with a beautifully arranged birthday dinner. The chef prepared incredible sirloin ste"

Honeyguide Tented Safari Camps - Mantobeni

"Everything was great! Our guide was very knowledgeable and conscientious of the needs and wants of his group. So exciting to have a herd of elephants come up and drink from the pool."
Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Our safari experience was truly unforgettable! Nestled within Kruger National Park, the lodge offered comfortable and clean cabins. The friendly staff went above and beyond to ensure each day was exceptional. A special shout-out to our guide, Andrew, whose expertise led us to see four out of the Big Five, along with many other animals in their natural habitat. Every morning and evening safari was a highlight, enhanced by thoughtful touches like coffee and snacks during the morning trips and wine and snacks in the evenings. Dining at the lodge was a delight, with gourmet meals served while we watched wildlife gather at the waterhole. This was a fantastic experience that I highly recommend!"

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing experience!!! We couldn’t expect better. "
Geiger's Camp
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed at Geigers Canp for our honeymoon after our initial lodge closed due to flooding, and could not have been happier with our stay! The property is rustic, beautiful, and well kept and the staff are very kind and welcoming. Every aspect of our stay at the property (especially the food) was excellent. We also had the team of Josh and David as our guide/tracker for the game drives and had an amazing experience, with plenty of Big 5 sightings along with many other exciting animals that Timbavati has to offer. We would definitely recommend to anyone considering a stay at Geigers. One piece of advice to the property, I highly recommend marketing Geigers Camp on social media like Instagram with its own page! It’s such a great property and deserves its own spotlight!"
