"Great place with a small number of guests. Very welcoming staff. The room was lovely with a huge bathroom next to it. Beds were comfortable and it was great to have a fridge in the room. The day was very well organised with two drives, which included coffee or any other drink on the late drive and snacks. Breakfast was a buffet with several warm options to order from. Lunch was a buffet too and was nicely arranged. The evening meal after the late drive was amazing. We were lucky to have Sam as a ranger who managed to show us a huge array of animals and was generally very knowledgable. Although there still were quiet a few waterholes around, the one at the lodge was nearly always busy. Just sitting in the chairs overlooking it and especially watching Elephant families come to it was special."

Rhulani Safari Lodge ★★★★

📍 R49, Wonderboom Gate, Zeerust

"Our first visit to this incredible and truly unique place was a holiday we will never forget, and we’re already hoping to return very soon. Words simply can’t describe how amazing it was my partner and I genuinely had the best trip ever. There was a sense of comfort, warmth, and belonging that is so hard to find, yet it came so naturally here. Every moment felt effortless and memorable, and it’s the kind of place that makes you wish you could press pause and stay forever.It’s not just somewhere you visit it’s somewhere you feel, and it will stay with us for a very long time. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by wonderful people. Every single member of staff was exceptional so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely caring and it was an absolute pleasure to meet such wonderful people. They are a real credit to Rhulani we’d love to give a special mention to Portia and Albert, who went above and beyond to look after us. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they always made time to check in and make sure we were okay. Michael also looked after us and assisted us back to our room when it was dark. We really enjoyed his company and his friendly personality. A huge highlight of our trip was Thato, our ranger. He wasn’t just a guide he was the heart of our trip. We seen everything and more than we could have hoped for and the game drives were thrilling and entertaining with something different each time. His dedication, personality , and ability to create such magical moments made our holiday truly unforgettable.His knowledge and skill were clear, but what made him truly special was his friendly nature and genuine connection with us. We loved every conversation we shared he was engaging, interesting, and that made each experience so enjoyable. Quite simply, he was incredible the star of our entire experience and we will always be grateful for everything he did to make our time so special. Tom was exceptional throughout our stay and played a significant role in making our experience so enjoyable. From the moment we arrived, he made us feel genuinely welcome and at ease, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. He was consistently approachable and more than happy to engage in conversation, which added a personal touch to our visit. It was a pleasure getting to know him, and my partner especially enjoyed sharing interest with him ,his friendliness, professionalism, and thoughtful approach greatly enhanced our experience. Thanks Tom We also loved the thoughtful touch of being greeted after drives with cold drinks it added to the magical experience. The food was outstanding throughout our stay, and the chefs were just as lovely as everyone else we met. Thank you so much for such a special and unforgettable stay. We’re already planning our return visit next year and can’t wait to see you all again. Leaving was incredibly difficult this extraordinary place truly touched our hearts."

Tuningi Safari Lodge ★★★★★

📍 Madikwe Game Reserve, Zeerust

"Tuningi is a very special place and it was a privilege for our family to visit and be so well looked after. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel special and the lodge and staff are a total credit to making this a safari lodge to make the very best memories. The food is fantastic, the hospitality genuine, the morning hot chocolates with home made muffins and the sun downers and snacks right through to blankets and hot water bottles - they have thought of every little touch. The game drives are always filled with brilliant animals and beautiful sights and lots of learning from the caring and knowledgable guides in Marcel & Gavin. We can’t praise this place highly enough - visit if you ever get the opportunity!"

Madikwe Safari Lodge ★★★★★

📍 Madikwe Game Reserve, Zeerust

"We spent four nights at Lepala with our boys (11 and 6) and absolutely loved it. Our family suite was fantastic, especially the beautifully decorated kids’ room. The food was wonderful, and our youngest loved the kids’ club. Our amazing guide made every game drive special, with incredible wildlife sightings. We also loved the spa and massages. A highlight was the pool overlooking the waterhole, watching elephants, giraffes and zebras come by every day. A truly special place – we were very sad to leave!"

Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge

📍 Wonderboom Gate, Madikwe Game Reserve, Zeerust

"The experience we had for our 4-night stay at Buffalo Ridge Safari lodge way exceeded my expectations - we went as a multigenerational family of 10, and every one of us had the time of our lives. The rooms are spacious & luxurious (where did you get those mattresses from? 😍), the food & meals were outstanding (thank you for the attention to my moms allergies, this was a game-changer for all of us to know that we didn’t need to worry about that) and the game drives with Jo were fun, beautiful, interesting and with excellent sightings on every drive. The lodge itself is magnificent, stunning interior design, all overlooking the park and a lovely waterhole with elephants from the dining area. Boma dinner was a highlight. Exceptional staff, great vibes and a holiday of a lifetime. Thank you for giving us such a special, memorable time."

Tau Game Lodge ★★★★★
"Beautiful location and rooms! Loved rooms 8 and 9 with great views of the waterhole with lots of animals. All hospitality staff and housekeeping staff were very friendly and helpful - perfect service! Outstanding food 10/10 for all meals - never left feeling hungry. Snacks before safari (both morning and afternoons) were excellent. For the price, would expect drinks to be included and not an additional fee (eg juice, bottled water, soft drink). However, noticed the difference between this fenced reserve, compared to an open one (we did two additional private and unfenced game reserves). Lots of impalas and zebras when we were there (September 2026), however wouldn’t recommend future fenced safari drives to anyone wanting to see a big variety of free/happy animals. We noticed a lot of animals (eg elephants) not comfortable and a little angry towards the trucks. Our drives were limited to the main roads due to rain…with some bones (eg elephant skull) appearing slightly staged on the side of the road after driving the same route the previous day. Overall felt like the safari drives were staged for the tourist experience compared to many other game drives we did. Would recommend Tau if you’re staying for the lodge/waterhole experience to see animals drinking from a comfortable and relaxing room and environment. Would not recommend if you’re looking for authentic and adventurous game drives."

"We were lucky to have visited the lodge 2 years ago, it has since been refurbished and it is truly wonderful. The staff are friendly & professional, nothing is too much bother for them. Our room was exceptional, large, comfortable with all essentials and amenities. The food is spectacular, really top class. Our guide Sam was wonderful and we had some amazing animal encounters. Seeing the Milky Way again was also a treat. Cannot recommend this place highly enough."

Tuningi Safari Lodge ★★★★★
"62 . Bucket list. Always wanted to do a safari.I asked the travel agent which was the best park and lodge and this is where we ended up. I went with zero expectations and had the best experience of my life. From the moment we walked in we were met by the most amazing host, Sasha, and it felt like home. Her part, Andrew, is probably the best ranger and guide in the park. Actually, not probably, definitely! He knows everything about every animal, plant etc. He’s also one of the nicest people I’ve met. On the last day, whilst all the other rangers are elsewhere he found the lions!"
