I had a great stay at Garonga Safari Camp in April 2026 on a solo photography safari. The six tented suites are well maintained, comfortably furnished and very clean. They, and the main lodge building with its spacious deck and swimming pool, overlook an almost dry riverbed on the other side of which we periodically saw elephant, rhino, terrapins and vervet monkeys. The food was delicious, freshly cooked and plentiful so much so that I had to forgo lunch after each post-game drive big breakfast! Norma, the Hospitality Manager, is delightful. She, and the brilliant team she has around her are fabulous: professional, friendly and great fun. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Our twice daily game drives didn’t reveal quite as much wildlife as I’ve seen in other Greater Kruger private game reserves. This had nothing to do with our ranger Jeff, and tracker Gilbert, who worked incredibly hard to find the illusive animals. It’s because the bush is far far denser in Makalali than elsewhere, the volume of animals is lower and there are some lodges that are closed or under refurbishment meaning there are fewer vehicles out and therefore fewer rangers to pass information amongst themselves. On some game drives, for example, we went more than an hour before seeing anything at all (including impala!). We did, however, manage to see four of the Big 5 as well as a pair of cheetah brothers. So Garonga Safari Camp rates as a 5/5 while the Makalali reserve only gets a 3/5 I’m afraid.

Accommodation, food, game drives, starlit bathing and gentle professional staff. A special Thankyou to Phineas and Trevor and Molly and her staff… lisää
