The location was amazing… 200 meters from the Pafuri Gate to Kruger, ideal for a 6am entry to the north of the park. The house was beautifully fitted out, ultra modern, new, sparklingly clean. Wonderfully comfortable bed. Exceptionally well equipped kitchen. We had internet, a luxury in Kruger. But what really made our stay at Pafuri Gate Guesthouse really memorable was the welcome we received from Forget and Patricia. They were so helpful and concerned that we had everything we needed to make us feel safe and comfortable. Forget was a great source of local news and history and when we set off to walk the perimeter he accompanied us and kept us engaged with his stories.

We loved the beautiful countryside/ bush around the accommodation. The authenticity and the location was wonderful. Everything was exactly as described. Communication from the owner was excellent. The walking trails were fabulous. We loved the noise of insects etc at night. The breeze through the netted windows was good too.

Our stay at Pafuri was amazing! The place is beautiful - everything is so thoughtfully designed and arranged. The staff are a 10/10. Our (family) tent was very well equipped and we had an amazing view over the Luvuvhu River. The food was always great. We loved spending time and learning from Bush (Brighton), our amazing, clever guide.

Outstanding food and service and great ranger (Keagan)
