We spent our Honeymoon here and I couldn’t recommend a better place to stay in Kruger, they made our trip so special even with a special dinner to celebrate. Service was amazing from all staff at the lodge and also our game driver, David was awesome and made the experience on the safari superb. Definitely worth staying here you won’t be disappointed and is fantastic value for money. Will be back. Thank you!

Just the most amazing time! Staff can’t do enough for you, food is great (and there’s a lot of it) and drinks are very reasonably priced. The game drives with Divine were just awesome and he is an encyclopaedia of the bush. Really relaxed feel to the place with animal viewings all day sat by the pool. Had a great group in the lodge for the 4 days which naturally helps but I would highly recommend this for your safari. Even got to watch some of the Masters golf on tv

We saw all the big 5 on the first day! Everything was great from beginning to end, even before we arrived with the communication and ease of arranging airport transfers. Rooms are gigantic and private and a relaxing place to hang between drives. The food was varied, delicious and SO plentiful, we were stuffed. Snacks and drinks during the game drives were something to look forward to. The entire staff was so lovely and we would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Nic and the team at Baobab Ridge are friendly, welcoming, and caring. They do everything to ensure that you have a great stay, highlighted with fantastic wildlife viewing. All of the meals were incredible and the team was great at handling special dietary needs. Meals at the main lodge were a nice combination of time together, but still having the privacy of a table for your own party. One evening, we had a barbecue in the Boma, the atmosphere was magical. The room was spacious, well-appointed, and had everything you might need. In the afternoons it was nice to have a nap or sit and read while listening to the birds and monkeys. Morning and evening safaris were amazing, the guides are very knowledgeable and communicate with each other to get you the best sightings possible. All of the sightings felt very private with only a few vehicles there at a time. What a treat to be pampered at the lodge for 2 nights!

My wife and I along with 10 family and friends spent an amazing three nights at Baobab Ridge. Nick and team were very accommodating, and we had a memorable time. The daily safaris were amazing where we in the hands Devine and Marvin who were both spectacular drivers and trackers. Privilege and team prepared fantastic meals and the hospitality from all at Baobab were just amazing. The rooms were fabulous, clean and very well kept. The team knows exactly how to cater the needs of its guest and we're truly grateful to have been able to spend time here at this amazing place. We can't say enough about our stay here.

Nic the lodge manager kindly picked us up from the airport and gave us a game drive into the lodge, he was very welcoming and a thoroughly decent chap. The lodge was brick built but disguised well and looked fabulous, rooms were very spacious and clean. The staff looked after us very well at meal times with beaming smiles! Food was very good nothing to complain about at all. Game viewing was tricky as always in February but our guide Devine is clearly top man there and managed to find everything we wanted to see. All in all it was an excellent lodge to begin our adventure.

Ein tolles Hotel - mit einem Makel: wir hatten Zimmer 5, das leider wirklich muffig / feucht gerochen hat. Ich weiß, dass das Hotel älter ist, weil Freunde vor 8 Jahren dort waren, und glaube es ist einfach renovierungsbedürftig. Auch manche Wände mit (Wasser)Flecken im Haupthaus. Man riecht es direkt beim Betreten des Zimmers und unsere Klamotten haben seitdem gerochen. Hervorzuheben ist aber: tolles Personal das gut englisch spricht! Und tolles Essen, das sehr frisch zubereitet und toll angerichtet wird. Jeden Tag etwas Neues Leckeres. Für uns hätte es etwas weniger sein können, da man es eigentlich nicht schaffen kann und man ein schlechtes Gewissen hat, Essen zurückgehen zu lassen. Der Safari Guide David hat alles gegeben und uns die Big Five ermöglicht! Außerdem eine tolle, schnelle Kommunikation vorab mit Linda! Wir würden sofort wiederkommen und es weiterempfehlen, wenn es renoviert wird.

We spent 3 nights and 4 days in Baobab Ridge and had the times our lives. The facility - wonderful! The main lodge area and dining areas are very nice and they rotate where you dine. You will be having meals on the patio, the lawn, inside table, and amazing white tablecloth dinner by the fireside. The cottages were very nice, large, and had everything we needed. Game Drives and Guides - Couldn't have asked for anyone better. We had so much fun with Devine. He is so extremely knowledgable and knows the area and other people so well. We saw eery animal and we even saw the big five in one drive. Devine is awesome and has been with the company for years. Food and staff - The food was absolutely amazing. Everything was made from scratch and tasted so good! Some of the best food we have ever eaten. Their cooks and dining staff are amazing and so professional and friendly Nic, the general manager, was always attentive and checked in with us every day. The lodge was very well run! Highly recommend Baobab Ridge! We will definitley being going back!
