"The minute we arrived we were greeted by lovely staff and elephants at the pool. What followed was a once in a lifetime experience. The positives - Beds are super comfy with electric blankets for those cold nights and a fan for the warm days. The food was AMAZING. I LOVED being seated with fellow safari mates and getting to know people from across the world even though we are total introverts. Our guide Leighton was brilliant, knowledgeable and an excellent driver. And the wildlife…. Wow. I still can’t believe we saw so many lions, leopards and cheetahs, not to mention everything else. Being birders we were worried that we would be ignored and never get a moment to identify a bird but Leighton balanced the needs of the guests so well and had an excellent knowledge of all animals. The only downsides… when we arrived we were so hungry but because our flight was delayed we missed the afternoon safari and had to wait until everyone returned before we could access any food - a wait of 2 hours was really tough and no one explained what was happening. Highly recommend explaining the daily itinerary to people on arrival and having snacks available for purchase. Loved the Couples shower but unfortunately not enough hot water for 2 people. "

"A heartfelt thank you the owners Charl and Riana de Kock for hosting us at their lodge. Thank you very much to Lynette and Esti for making us feel welcome and making my Dad’s 80th birthday weekend so special, from a lovely birthday cake to champagne! Lido was very helpful and looked after us the entire weekend. Our rooms were beautiful and the food lovely. A special thank you to Bertie. You made the game drive so memorable. He went out of his way to show us as much as possible and his knowledge on the animals were amazing! Kruger Riverside Lodge is a small establishment which cares for their guests and make you feel like you are at a 5-star resort. We loved every minute of our stay. Thank you SO much for everything! "
