Our stay at Madikwe Safari Lodge was absolutely outstanding and exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the warmth and genuine hospitality of the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. The lodge itself is stunning, blending luxury and comfort beautifully with the surrounding bushveld. Our accommodation was spacious, beautifully appointed, and offered breathtaking views that made every moment special. The game drives were unforgettable. Our guide and tracker were exceptionally knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated to ensuring we had the most incredible safari experience. We were fortunate to enjoy amazing wildlife sightings while learning so much about the animals and ecosystem. The food was exceptional, with every meal thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. The attention to detail throughout our stay truly set Madikwe Safari Lodge apart.

Wow! This place exceeded my expectations, which were already quite high. I stayed at Lelapa Lodge (part of Madikwe Safari Lodge) with my 11-year-old son for four nights. The experience was exceptional! All the staff were super friendly and went above and beyond to make the experience special. The staff were so kind to my very energetic son. The food is AMAZING, and so are the people. The booking experience was great too as the lodge helped arrange flights or car transfers and answered all our inquiries promptly by email prior to the trip. This is a luxurious experience that I highly recommend!

We had an exceptional stay at Madikwe Safari Lodge! Everything was perfect — the staff were incredibly attentive, the Luxury Suite was stunning, with thoughtful touches for us and our daughter. The dining experience was outstanding, the spa massage was perfect, and the safaris with our game driver allowed us to experience truly unforgettable moments. A very special mention for the marriage proposal — everything was absolutely perfect and beautiful. We will definitely be back! A huge thank you to the entire team.

Our experience at this lodge ticked all the boxes and was perfect for celebrating our mothers 80th birthday with a very special weekend away. Easy to reach from Johannesburg, gorgeous lodge with fabulous accommodation, delicious food and outstanding service. The warm smiles and eagerness to please extended across our stay, the welcome at check in, waiters at meal times, housekeeping staff and our amazing ranger. We saw everything except for the elusive leopard. Sunrise and Sunset drives with stops for a pick me up - Amarula coffee and cold gin and tonics. Thank you to you all for a wonderful weekend
