We love it! We will definitely come back again and recommend it to our friends. Good food, clean room, a good place to relax, and get back to nature and animals.

Comfortable tents with all amenities. Beautiful territory, lake with hippos. Good food in the restaurant. The only thing is that the choice of dishes for breakfast is small.

We recently celebrated a very special 80th birthday at Buffelsdrift Game Lodge, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The venue was absolutely stunning – our setting overlooked the dam, creating a peaceful and picturesque backdrop for the day. Despite how busy the lodge was, the service was impeccable. Every member of staff was warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive. They went above and beyond to ensure all our needs were taken care of, making the celebration truly memorable for our whole family. A special mention must go to Eddy, our bush safari guide – he was outstanding! So knowledgeable, friendly, and patient, especially with our elderly family members. He made the wildlife experience even more special, sharing fascinating insights and making everyone feel safe and included. The tented accommodation was a real treat – luxurious, comfortable, and blended beautifully with the natural surroundings. The cherry on top was the meerkat encounter – a unique and magical experience we’ll never forget. Thank you to everyone at Buffelsdrift for making this such a remarkable and heartwarming celebration. We would return in a heartbeat!

After my 4th visit with tourists from America, they already planning their next tour via Buffelsdrift. The standard was always good, but it is forever improving. Nice to see new departure point for game drives and some other exciting changes in the pipeline. African Moon Adventures will be back!

Thank you to everyone of the Buffelsdrift team. It was the highlight of our South Africa tour. Very well equipped glamping tents and even in cold nights with 6 degrees it was not cold. The park does not have so many animals but every safari was worth doing it. We made lion feeding, cheetahs and mercats. The highlight was the night safari as we saw 9 bat eared foxes. The staff was very kind without any exception. The food was very good. Also the meet was always on the point you wanted. Our stay was absolutely wonderful, thanks again
