We love it! We will definitely come back again and recommend it to our friends. Good food, clean room, a good place to relax, and get back to nature and animals.

We absolutely loved our stay at Buffelsdrift. The accommodation, restaurant and staff were absolutely amazing. Our young daughters especially loved the antelopes grazing in between the safari tents and big Opa the giraffe walking straight past our tent in the morning. The safaris were great and staff went out of their way to make the girls experience extra special. Would always come back!

We have just returned to the UK from a once in a lifetime trip to South Africa of which the highlight was without doubt Buffelsdrift Game Lodge, we had the most amazing time. The lodges are stunning and you could be in a first class hotel with all the little personal touches and the outside showers ‘quirky’ but really made you feel like you were on safari only with luxury. We could even watch the Hippos from our lodge and when we awoke early the giraffes were less than 50m from us. The game drives were brilliant, night and morning saw so many different animals and birds and the early morning drive was spectacular. The driver guides were all first class and really knew their stuff, clearly passionate about their jobs and passing on their extensive knowledge. We even met the 3 baby orphaned elephants that have been raised at Buffelsdrift and they 100% trust humans now.(how amazing) Couldn’t do this review without also mentioning the lovely food and serving staff. In conclusion if we were ever lucky enough to return to South Africa Buffelsdrift Game Lodge would be at the top of our list to visit again.

Lovely "out of africa" luxury tents. We had young deer-like animals munch on leaves next to our balcony as we had coffee in the morning. we then went on a great evening safari which was exciting and interesting. It was low key and really good value for money.

What a wonderful place to get away from it all and commune with African wildlife from both close up and afar. It truly felt like we were guests in the animals' home. Many of them were rescued from terrible conditions and it was heartwarming to see them in their natural habitat where they are free to roam and humanely cared for. The accommodations were luxury camping at its finest and the restaurant fare was healthy and gourmet. I personally found it impossible to eat the game on the menu with them staring at me in the face but there were plenty of options to choose from.

Buffelsdrift is as the highlight of our 2 weeks in SA. There is so much beauty in this country, but this place is incredible. We went for our friends’ wedding which was stunning and so well organised. The food was delicious, the staff are so kind and attentive. The accommodation is beautiful and the beds are comfy. The icing on the cake was the bush drive and elephant experience, being so close to animals and having elephant hugs. What is not to love?!

This was our fourth stay at Buffelsdrift. We love this place. The tents are luxurious and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening game drive. Big shout out to our ranger, Hayley, she was wonderful, a real asset. We also had the best food we’ve ever enjoyed, think they have a new chef and it was a huge improvement. Looking forward to returning again next year.

We had the most wonderful stay at Buffelsdrift Game Reserve. The tents are amazing and done to a high standard. The staff were so helpful with anything you wanted and the food was amazing. The game reserve safaris and the animals are wonderful. Absolutely recommend staying here.
