This is near perfection. We enjoyed our stay from beginning to the end. I am not use to give a 10 but they totally deserved it. Our guide Landon and our tracker Jacky both with a massive experience definitely went above and beyond to let us have a wonderful game experience. The lodge staff were exceptional, always there to help us or offer us anything. Our suite was stunning (maybe even too big for us two).

Felt like a „home away from home“ from the first hello until goodbye. Great team, very nice tents, good food and (most important for this kind of holiday) incredible game drives. We saw a lot of animals and it was very nice that they not just concentrate on the big 5 but also told a lot about the bush, the birds and all the other small parts of nature. thanks again to our competent and very funny ranger Edward and the incredible tracker Nicholus.

The Simbavati Hilltop Lodge is a very special location. Since the first minute we felt in love with this beautiful place within the Kruger Nationalpark. Welcomed by Brad, Caroline and the team directly let us felt at home. Our Lodge had a view into the wild. Lying on the day bed on the balcony was so relaxing. And we even could spot Giraffes and other wildlife. The Lodge itself was equipped with everything that is needed. Also the bathroom with the tube with a view and the outdoor shower was so special. Daniel was taking care of us during breakfast, lunch and dinner. By the way: the meals are incredible and Daniel is also a good bar tender. Always good for a joke. Rudolf and Thabo, our Game Drive driver and tracker, where incredible. They tried to fullfill all the wishes and yes, we saw the Big 5. Rudolf explained a lot about the animals and answered every question. Thanks again to the Simbavati Hilltop Lodge team for this "Once in a lifetime" experience.

We loved the location in the middle of the bush. The amenities and the comfort are outstanding while eco responsible. The staff is absolutely lovely and very careful while being very professional. The food is excellent and changes every day, the walk games are wonderful even if of course you don't see as many animals as in cars...but the contact with the nature and the intercation with animals is unique...and our guide was so nice and skilled. I defintely recommend to anyone who wants to live a true expreience in the bush

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were treated superbly by the lodge manager , safari guides and staff. Nothing too much trouble. The game drives were exceptional - Gideon and Eric were great company, very informative and tuned their information to the guests (we have been on safari many times) providing some real detailed knowledge. Food was great and a really great atmosphere to the whole experience.

This Reserve is just amazing. We had such a great time here. Such friendly staff, great lodges, awesome food and service. The best part were the Game drives - they were just amazing. We saw all big 5 and so many more great animals. Our guides went out of their way to make the time we had as memorable and enjoyable as possible. Highly recommend.

We were received very nicely. On the way to the lodge three leopards came towards us. That was an incredible experience. The food at the lodge was great. The safaris were impressive. A coffee stop while a herd of elephants with many baby elephants gather at the waterhole is an incredible experience. The rooms are very spacious, clean, nicely furnished and quiet. Nothing was missing.
