9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (34 reviews)
"We loved our 3 nights stay!
The whole staff was very friendly and present when needed.
We loved our drives with Sarah and Joseph, their knowledge, patience and enthusiasm made the drives extra special. They made great effort to see the animals we wanted to see on each drives. We saw the big 5 from really close, multiple times!
We loved the terrace in our lodge facing the river, during breaks we would watch elephants, waterbuck and hippos cross the river.
The food was diverse and very good....

"The place is lovely and me and my lady enjoyed it. The only issue I had was the bed, it was not that comfortable, same goes to the pillows, they where big. Oh and board needs some attention because when you walk inside the tent your partner got to wake up because they squicky. But nevertheless I enjoyed it, even proposed and she said yes"

Kapama Buffalo Camp
Kapama Buffalo CampHoedspruit
10/10 Excellent
Absolutely fantastic. The only down side (if it is a downside) is that there is simply too much great food to eat and little opportunity to work it off. 3 nights was enough and could safely get away with 2. Great break with no kids around.
