"Everything was great! Our guide was very knowledgeable and conscientious of the needs and wants of his group. So exciting to have a herd of elephants come up and drink from the pool."

"Extremely good experience, everything is planned out for you nicely. The guides have more than 25 years of experience and it shows in the information, the stories that they share with you. Pricing is great, meals are all prepared for you as well!
Would definitely go back again if and when we head back to Kruger!"

"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....
"Camp Shawu Tents have a unique location in front of a watering hole that house Hippos, and see a string of animals come to hydrate like elephants, impalas, and giraffes....You can seat on your deck and enjoy the show. Our Safari Guide Sifiso, was AMAZING! He made the trip even more special.
The property lacks maintenance ...the pool was not maintained hence looked like a mosquito fest, the umbrellas were all broken hence no shade to sit out on the beautiful deck overlooking the watering hole,...

"We stayed 2 nights in Kruger Kumba, which is situated in Marloth Park. Frankly speaking, we were so regret for not extending our stay. The experience was awesome, where there were so many visitors right in front of the patio, not to mention kudu, impala, wildebeest, warthog, zebra etc. Too bad we didn't get to see the bushbabies. The accommodation itself is comfy, clean and well equipped. The host is friendly, welcoming and so caring to provide lots of advices and recommendation. We are already...
After visiting Lebombo Border Control, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Komatipoort. While you're in the area, wander around the natural setting.
Explore the great outdoors at Phabeni Gate, a lovely green space in Mbombela. Amble around this relaxing area's riverfront or seek out the safari tours.

"Amazing hotel. Highly recommend staying here. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast and dinner are amazing, with a mixture of South African, European and American food. You won’t be disappointed. The biggest perk is watching animals in Kruger park right from the pool!"
"Very pleasant stay by the river on the way back from Kruger. Pleasant staff, good food, rooms a little old but good facilities. They even wash the mud off the car each morning!"

"What a lovely safari stay. From the knowledgeable guides on the game drives to the friendly accomodating staff. Perfect starting point for your safari adventures"
"The complex has an excellent restaurant with great views of wildlife and the service was exceptional. The Gym was very good and its equipment was pristine.
