The welcome on arrival was just the start of a safari experience that will never leave us From the wonderful and plentiful food, to the knowledge and experience of the guides, everything is of the highest order The lodge itself is not brand new and there are a few signs of wear and tear, but everything works as it should and is kept immaculately clean If you want to get close to nature, this is the place as there are no fences between you and the animals even when you’re in your room In the week we spent there we were visited by elephants, hyenas, buffalo and lions with only your rooms front door between you and them, but there’s no need to worry, as the staff are so knowledgeable that your safety is assured at all times

“Intimate, luxurious, authentic. Food and guide were the differential.”

Drove eight hours from Joburg. Once you get to Orpen Gate not much of an issue. Network can be patchy, so make sure you get your directions right. Well, it’s all part of the experience 😊. Lodge was beautiful and intimate. Staff were friendly and kind. What made the experience unforgettable was our safari guide Jenny. She was so sincere and warm (shout out to Jenny). It’s not about what we saw or didn’t, but the effort and genuine hope that we do can be felt. Pros - Beautiful lodge, awesome authentic food, one of a kind guide Jenny Cons - Outdoor shower can be an issue for winter Jenny if u are reading this, we did manage to see the lions on the way out 🙏.

“Amazing Stay!!!”

We had the most amazing stay at Hoyo Hoyo, the staff were all amazing, the game drives very knowledgeable & the food was truly scrummy!

“Magical experience”

Hoyo Hoyo is exactly the kind of place you want to stay while on a Safari Holiday in South Africa.

Hoyo Hoyo is exactly the kind of place you want to stay while on a Safari Holiday in South Africa. The lodge and property are open to the wildlife and a small herd of elephants greeted us from across the river bed as we checked in. The small number of guest “huts” made for a very cozy and intimate stay. The “huts” are set up like a traditional village but the accommodations and details are definitely first class. The morning and afternoon wildlife drives were lots of fun and the knowledgeable guides and drivers made sure we had great close encounters with the animals. The dining experience was very high end and I loved the chance to try some game in an elevated way. A great visit.
