Restful breakaway
4/5

We enjoyed the stay at Nkambeni Tented Lodge, the outside showers are amazing. The GPS coordinates on google maps are incorrect so we end up asking surrounding people for guidance.

I agree, the outside showers are amazing! We will look into the GPS coordinates and see if there is anything that can be done.

Completely our fault, we do our best to deliver the best possible service but sometimes things do get very busy. We hope your stay at Nkambeni was enjoyable and next time we will be sure to follow up faster!

An enjoyable child friendly experience
4/5

I was very skeptical about sleeping in a "tent" to my surprise, it was very luxurious kitted with all the modern amenities. The outdoor showers were awesome! The food was also prepared to the highest standard, though I wish they also could serve "venison" .

5/5

The servise at Mjejani lodge was on point, the staff was really friendly and accomadating. The game drives were very good, Willaim our game ranger was very informative learned alot of things.I would love to go back again. Waking up to a beautiful view overlooking the river with hippos and elephants was something out of this world.

Brilliant
5/5

Was a fantastic trip, staff were lovely and the cooking staff made the most amazing meals.

Only suggestion is that clients are informed that when they stay at the bush camp, the kruger games drive no longer become and option as it is too far.

also, the one morning when you can sleep in, you are woken by the cleaning staff raking the sand haha!

The review below is the personal opinion of Pauline and not that of SafariBookings.
Arrangements for travel/transfers were very poor and (in retrospect) ridiculously expensive .
1/5

Advice provided by travel agent, Adelle, regarding travel/transfers was exceptionally poor in terms of logistics and cost. She was not worthy of our trust. We had already chosen Londolozi as our safari destination and found our experience there, and indeed for the remainder of our trip to South Africa, to be very positive. We will return to the southern coast of South Africa and Londolozi for further golfing/safari experiences but definitely will not use the same South African travel agent .

We are sad to hear that. We hope the R8500 refund for transfers finds you well.

All the best

Great experience and enjoyable
4/5

The guides were knowledgeable and explained a lot about the animals and took the time to point out so much that I was not aware of. The Rodaville was clean and well kept however the meas though great on the bushbrei were were plain and steaks (ostrich) were tough. Suggest better cooking or steak knives. Over all great value and experience

Easy online booking
4/5

We were looking for accommodation within Kruger National Park during a busy time when no SA National Parks accommodation was available. Ruben from KrugerPark.com recommended Nkambeni Tented Lodge as it suited our budget and our preferred location. With Ruben's help, we made our booking completely online from Australia in about 20 minutes. This was good service.

Nkambeni Tented Lodge was ok but not spectacular. The buffet style evening meal and breakfast were good without being special. Each tent had indoor and outdoor showers and the furnishings were good. It looks like a lot of tour operators use this lodge as compared with independent travelers like ourselves. Insist on tents near the main facilities if you do not want to walk 100s of metres each way.
