Located in a quiet, peaceful setting, just minutes from the main entrance to Kruger National Park. We only spent one night here, but during that time everything seemed very well organised. The room was relatively spacious and very comfortable, with nice large windows giving a very good view of the garden.

Umkumbe Safari Lodge is a great place to stay if you are looking cut yourself off from the hustle bustle of the city life and spend a couple of nights away from civilization. It is right there admist the wild with very little access to the internet. The game drives provided by the guides & trackers are very informative and they try their best to get you a close view of the Big 5. It is absolutely safe and you will love your experience of the wild with Umkumbe Safari Lodge. They clean the room and prepare your bed twice a day which is awesome.

We loved everything about Jock. For us, it was a little piece of heaven. We had the most incredible stay of our lives and made the most amazing memories, never to be forgotten. A trip to Kruger is a lifetime experience, and staying at Jock was definitely the cherry on top. If you're reading this and thinking of booking, then do it! You really won't regret it. The staff could not do more for you, you only had to think about another glass of wine and one was put in front of you. My gosh, do they love to feed you too, if it's not breakfast, lunch, or dinner, there is a morning or afternoon snack on the go. Definitely expect to eat your fill here! The rooms themselves are slightly on the small side, but this is more than accounted for in the outside space. A real must is a night outside on the daybed, I tried this (the other half wasn't brave enough), and it was an experience in itself. Our ranger Micha was absolutely incredible. What a true asset to the team at Jock he was. He had a way of ensuring we were in the right spot at the right time to see some of the most amazing widelife sightings you can imagine. His cheeky sense of humour had us on our toes, too, with him clearly enjoying winding us up with his "facts", he was just amazing. The little extras during the game drives, such as indulging in a rangers special (hot chocolate with Amarula) in some of the most spectacular landscapes are also memories to be forever cherished. Nothing is overlooked during a stay at Jock. Hopefully one day we will be able to return.

What an amazing place, to be able to stay in the middle of Kruger on a river bed, is an absolutely amazing experience! The game drives and bush walk were absolutely amazing and the guides were super knowledgeable and professional (the best safaris we had in all of Kruger). Food was really good as well and all the staff was super friendly and helpful! The glamping adds to the whole experience and then being able to dip in the pool in between game drives is surreal. Needless to say, we didn't want to leave.

Spacious and comfortable room and lovely pool and gym facilities. Immediate access the park so great for self-drives or guided tours. The breakfast buffet was excellent but the evening buffet was pretty average, however, there are other restaurant choices within walking distance.

Skukuza is a gem—especially if you want that mix of real bush experience without giving up comfort. It’s one of the bigger camps in Kruger, so there’s quite a bit going on, but it still manages to feel peaceful. Favourite spots: We really enjoyed the early morning drives around the park. We were self-driving but cleverly kept an eye on the guided tour operator vehicles, and that helped us catch most of the big sightings. It made the whole experience exciting and rewarding. Where we ate: We mostly self-catered but had a nice meal at the Kruger Hotel on our first evening after arriving past 7 pm. Most of our shopping was done at the Park Shop inside the camp—it was well-stocked and convenient. We even bought some game meat (like kudu and impala), which we braaied once we returned to Rixile. It was delicious and made for a real bush-style dinner. Getting around: Very easy. The camp is drivable and well signposted. If you’re self-driving (as most people are), Skukuza is a great central base for game drives, with plenty of routes and good animal sightings in every direction. Activities for groups of friends: Game drives are the highlight—we had some unforgettable ones. I'd also suggest booking a guided morning drive and, if you're feeling adventurous, trying different types of game meat like wildebeest, crocodile, or impala. It’s a fun experience to share as a group. Evenings back at camp were equally special—braaiing under the stars, swapping stories, and comparing notes on sightings. Skukuza offers just the right balance of wild and comfortable.

I saw loads of the animals I was looking for, Giraffe, Rhino, Impala, Crocodile, Elephants Kudu, and even a couple of Lions and 2 Leopards. Saw the Wild Dogs and Buffalo. I also played golf at Skukuza Golf Club which was a bit of fun. Everyone was friendly and we always felt safe.

Located close skukuza gate of the Kruger national park.

Located close skukuza gate of the Kruger national park. It was value for money. Friendly staff and helpful. Missed having a kitchen portion, as it was not self catering. Really enjoyed our stay there.

The game viewing was absolutely brilliant and our guide Nelly was excellent. Location, this hotel has serious WOW factor. The accommodation on the bridge is breathtaking, spacious and luxurious with mesmerizing views. The food was delicious and each meal was perfectly delivered. The all inclusive beverage selection was extremely generous. 3 swimming pools to pick from... it was a real treat. The staff really stood out. Bheki, Venolia, Nelly (our driver)... they were incredibly friendly and could not do enough for the guests.

Beautiful cottage in the bush, very tastefully furnished to a very high standard. The location is fantastic both proximity to the Kruger Park and to the Kruger Gate Hotel. Great birdlife and buck appearing from the bush occasionally. The host couldn’t have been friendlier and more welcoming. You can see a lot of thought and care has gone into this property. A highlight of our stay in the area! Will definitely go back !

This was the only accomodation I could find last minute in Lower Sabie and had low expectations but it was actually cute and very comfortable with parking space right next to tent, comfortable beds, ac, large fridge and a great campsite environment around. We saw more interesting animals here than Skukuza. Menzie, the young man who maintains the tents is lovely. No bugs in September, no crime.
