"Buffalo Ridge Exceeded Every Expectation"

10.0

Buffalo Ridge was one of the most special travel experiences we have ever had. The lodge is beautiful, the wildlife was incredible, and Madikwe exceeded our expectations, but what made this place unforgettable was the people. Our guide, Joseph, was outstanding. His knowledge, tracking ability, and patience helped us see four of the Big Five, along with cheetahs, African wild dogs, lion cubs, elephant calves, and even a one-month-old rhino calf. We quickly learned that great safari sightings are the result of skill and experience, not just luck. The lodge itself was peaceful and relaxing, with comfortable chalets, beautiful views, and wildlife visible even from the property. We especially enjoyed spending time overlooking the watering hole between game drives. The hospitality was the best we have experienced anywhere. The food was exceptional, and every member of the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. A special thank you to Godfrey and Priscilla, who went out of their way to help me when I developed a sinus infection during our stay. We arrived expecting to remember the animals. We left knowing that what we will remember most is the people. If we are fortunate enough to return to South Africa someday, Buffalo Ridge will be at the top of our list.

"Probably the best price quality ratio in area"

9.0

Everything was what we expected. Probably not the most luxurious in the area but certainly the best quality price ratio. Meals were very good and guides very nice. They found solutions for the logistics problems we had (partly self inflicted)

Nothing

"Superb. we would heartily recommend this lodge."

10.0

This small and friendly lodge is well situated. It has been recently refurbished and is beautifully appointed with stunning views. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food was excellent., The included game drives were Superb and the guide 'Joseph' one of the best and most knowledgeable that we have ever had the pleasure to be guided by.

There is nothing that we didn't like.
