Kruger National Park Reviews

An Inside Look At Some Of The Top Lodges And Camps In The Kruger National Park

Kruger National Park is a world-renowned wildlife destination located in South Africa. It is home to an incredible array of animals, plants and landscapes that offer visitors an unforgettable safari and bush experience. The national park covers 19,485 km2 (7,523 sq mi) and contains the largest diversity of species in any African national parks or game reserves.

The Uyaphi.com team has been privileged to visit and photograph many Kruger National Park lodges and camps on numerous occasions over the past two decades.

We have explored the park's diverse landscapes, wildlife (including the "Big Five"), and various lodges and safari camps.

We have had the opportunity to take a closer look at our favourite safari lodges and camps in the park. To photograph, experience, view and taste these special safari lodges and tented camps is and always will be special for us.

Below are our personal thoughts, feelings and photographs of just a few of the safari properties we have had the privilege of visiting.

Our experience of Kruger National Park has been nothing short of amazing, one of the best in Southern Africa for game viewing and accommodation options.

Every visit we have made here has offered us new and exciting experiences, whether it be photographing wildlife on game drives or a bush walk, exploring the park's diverse landscapes or simply meeting new people at the lodges and safari camps.

  • Umlani Bush Camp Gallery

    Umlani Bush Camp Photo Gallery

    Umlani Bush Camp is set in the heart of the Timbavati Game Reserve, offering superb rustic accommodation, hospitality and an authentic safari atmosphere and all of this mixed with some of the best wildlife in the whole of South Africa.

    Nothing like a game drive in the Timbavati, an excellent option for those on self-drive safaris. One of the best bushveld camps.

    Africa On Foot Photo Gallery

    From the moment you walk through the entrance of Africa on Foot, you are greeted with the warm hospitality that follows you through your days on safari here.

    Although only a small lodge, the focus here is on walking safaris.

  • Ezulwini River Lodge Gallery

    Ezulwini River Lodge Photo Gallery

    Cradled on the banks of the Great Olifants River, beneath towering fig and natal mahogany trees, lies Ezulwini River Lodge.

    Ezulwini, meaning ‘place of paradise’, remains true to its name in the secretive construction of River Lodge, which is a bird-lovers utopia and a wildlife wonderland.

  • Ezulwini Billy’s Lodge Gallery

    Ezulwini Billy’s Lodge Photo Gallery

    Succumb to bushveld luxury at Ezulwini Billy’s Lodge, which is built on the banks of a riverbed seasonally visited by rain, bringing herds of grazing animals and their predatory counterparts right to the vicinity of the lodge.

    Located in the Balule Nature Reserve, a pristine private region of the Greater Kruger Park.

  • Nottens Bush Camp Gallery

    Nottens Bush Camp Photo Gallery

    Nottens Bush Camp in the Sabi Sand game parks has been part of our Kruger lodge portfolio for as long as Uyaphi.com has been in existence; the Camp has it all, in our opinion.

    From service levels all the way through great accommodation to stunning "Big 5" wildlife activities.

  • Umkumbe Lodge Photo Gallery

    Umkumbe Safari Lodge Photo Gallery

    On the numerous games drive here, we had a fantastic time spotting wildlife and birdlife, but it is back at the lodge with the views of the Sand River where we had our best birding opportunities.

    It was also back at the lodge while swimming in the pool that a large herd of buffalo and elephant slowly meandered up the river bed - amazing.

  • Greater Kruger Family Safari

    Greater Kruger Family Safari

    "How many more sleeps?” this became our son's wake-up call as the days neared his first ‘safari’ to the Greater Kruger National Park.

    James and I had decided to combine a bit of family time with a quick update of the 'family friendly safari lodges' in the greater Kruger area.

  • My 4 Day Kruger Adventure

    My 4 Day Kruger Adventure

    My 4-Day Kruger Adventure was one of the highlights of my travelling; having not visited the area for such a long time, the Kruger National Park was stunning.

    Leaving Cape Town and flying north to OR Tambo and then a 5-hour drive to the Kruger from where we stayed in parks board accommodation.
