Fantastic hospitality
We stayed 3 nights at the Buffalo Camp, an authentic lodge experience in a private, fenced in area of sole 20’000 hectares. We were picked up from the airport by Jeffrey, who was our guide / ranger for next 3 days. We were entirely satisfied from Pre-check in to check out, it’s hard to do better. The accommodation is luxury tents with all amenities including good showers and surprising water pressure. There is food being served all the time, best to skip some of the meals or you’ll gain a lot of weight little to no opportunity to burn calories. As you would expect, there are 2 game drives a day, Jeffrey and Mpho, out tracker, did a great job entertaining everyone amd were full of fascinating stories. We would go again, it is an amazing experience. I have been on game drives with more popping animal encounters but this really was very special in any other way.

Absolutely fantastic. The only down side (if it is a downside) is that there is simply too much great food to eat and little opportunity to work it off. 3 nights was enough and could safely get away with 2. Great break with no kids around.

Great getaway at Greater Kruger Reserve
It was a getaway for us, to view the Big 5 in Kruger. The accommodation was comfortable, and the best was the dinner at boma, where they served the best grilled meat. The game viewing was good, with our ranger providing us a good lot of information about the wildlife.

A Once in a Lifetime Experience
We had a great stay at Kapama Buffalo Camp. Expensive but you get a lot including three a la carte meals/day, beautiful tent (really a room on stilts), free mini bar and most importantly two three hour game safaris/day. Our guide Collen and spotter Vusi went out of their way so we could see the myriad of amazing animals in the private reserve. We were lucky to see all of the big five!

Great safari experience!
Amazing safari lodge experience. Great guides! Mostly okay staff. Small facility but highly recommended if one prefers a low key and intimate experience.

Experiência incrível. Atendimento dos funcionários é excepcional e está entre os melhores que já vi. A comida é ótima, no sistema a lá carte. Bebidas (inclusive alcólicas, vinho, cerveja, etc) incluídas e a vontade. Os games foram sensacionais e conseguimos ver varias vezes os Big 5. A guia Mônica e o assistente Foster foram extremamentes atencionsos e fizeram de tudo para garantir o sucesso dos games. Recomendadíssimo!!! Já quero voltar.

Imperdível!!!
Foi a melhor escolha que eu poderia ter feito. O lodge é acolhedor, silencioso, pequeno, bonito... Recebe um número reduzido de hóspedes, o que torna a estadia singular. O tratamento é impecável, a tenda muito confortável, a comida maravilhosa. Os funcionários são verdadeiramente atenciosos. Minha única avaliação menos positiva é sobre o wifi que não funcionou muito bem na tenda e precisei fazer uso do meu 3G por diversas vezes.

Estadia e safáris espetaculares
Um verdadeiro oásis no Parque Krueger, O resort nos surpreendeu desde nossa chegada, onde fomos acolhidos por funcionários simpáticos e cordiais. O conforto do quarto é algo memorável, com frigobar free (e muito bem abastecido, diga-se de passagem), uma cama king, extremamente confortável, banheira, duas pias individuais e uma ótima ducha, tudo isso num ambiente bastante aconchegante! Os safáris, realizados por funcionários experientes e que amam o que fazem, são experiências inesquecíveis, pois vimos os Big Five e mais alguns, sempre com explicações sobre seu habitat, características e comportamentos. As refeições são de cozinha internacional, sendo que o jantar é servido à volta de uma fogueira, com todos os hóspedes reunidos... talvez eu mudaria apenas essa questão, porque numa das noites nos sentamos na direção do vento, e a fumaça da fogueira incomodou bastante nossos olhos. Mas resumindo, a estadia foi uma experiência fantástica que recomendo sem medo de errar.

A experiência no Kapama Búfalo Camp foi uma das melhores que já tive. Tudo perfeito. Os game drives, a equipe, a comida, o conforto e comodidades do hotel. Versão "Nutella" de safari...rs. Tudo na mão o tempo todo. Eles são muito cuidadosos e atenciosos com o turista. Conseguimos ver todos os Big 5!

Demais!
O Buffalo Camp correspondeu a todas as nossas expectativas, que já eram altas! Tudo lá foi incrível, o atendimento impecável, a comida deliciosa, os mimos, a barraca (linda!). Destaque, claro, para os safáris. O nosso ranger Ranko fez de tudo e conseguimos ver os big five, além de varios outros animais. Ele nos passou varias informações interessantes e respondeu todas as perguntas. Foi um momento inesquecível e recomendo fortemente para qualquer um.

Experiência única
A estadia no Kapama Buffalo Camp é uma experiência única. O hotel possui apenas 10 quartos e todo o staff é extremamente atencioso e solícito. As acomdações são comfortáveis e luxuosas e um outro grande ponto positivo é a qualidade das refeições servidas, e são várias ao longo do dia. Tivemos a oportunidade de jantar ao redr de uma fogueira com comidas típicas da região. Além disso os safáris são ótimos, e conseguimos ver 4 dos big five (só não vimos o leopardo). Em resumo, vale a pena.

A atenção dos funcionários é indescritível, eles te chamam pelo nome e estão sempre com o sorriso no rosto para te auxiliar. O lugar é pequeno por serem apenas 10 quartos mas é uma experiência única! Quartos amplos, bem de decorados e limpos!

Achei o hotel sensacional! Tudo foi absolutamente perfeito! Ganhei uma garrafa de vinho por estar comemorando dois anos de casamento, e achei isso super simpático por parte deles. As acomodações eram maravilhosas! Fiquei no quarto Rhino! Os atendentes a comida, tudo surpreendeu positivamente. E o ranger (Jeffrey) e tracker (N'po) foram sensacionais, muito atenciosos, simpáticos e conheciam tudo da reserva! Adorei e recomendo sem dúvida!

AMAZING AND UNFORGETABLE
It was really wonderful! A marvelous time! The ranger (Riann) and the tracker (Edwin) could not be better and really did everything possible to make our safaris unforgetable and excellent. The north american couple (Paul and Martina) that were our partners during the safaris are so nice and we could not expect a better companion. The surprise I had during dinner, on my birthday was amazing and very unique. All the staff, the amazing accomodations, food, everything is superb there! We sure are looking forward to go back some day and will tell all our friends and relatives that this is a MUST do do!
