Carol and Nigel are wonderful hosts and we above and beyond to make our stay a very memorable one.

Carol and Nigel have a stunning game lodge. We had an incredible time over four nights. They have included a number of little touches that elevate your stay and experience and have created a lodge of quiet luxury, that is embedded within the bush. You can see animals from your balcony! Our guide, Given, was phenomenal. He has an incredible knowledge of animals and birds and is such a fun guide. He has so much to teach and was amazing at finding and tracking animals. We saw the Big Five, but importantly, saw so much more beyond that. The lodge staff really value conserving the nature and animals around, and truly respect the animals. It was truly an unforgettable experience in the bush. The front of house staff, Crescent, Glorify and Veronica were incredible. They were so kind, thoughtful and personable. They made us feel so welcome and at home. The food was also amazing - we were blown away by the variety and quality of the food. An unforgettable five days and an experience of a lifetime.

Nothing at all!

Exceptional service and fantastic food. We are family of two adults and two children and we had the most wonderful stay at Greenfire 🥰

Our experience of Greenfire game lodge was nothing short of exceptional. The welcome we received when we arrived was warm and welcoming and immediately we felt at home. The Lodge is located down a beautiful track within big five territory and you self drive down 10km to a meeting point where you are collected before the real off-roading begins! The access in is stunning and set the scene for a beautiful stay. The rooms are right on the river bed with expansive views, huge comfortable bed and are beautifully finished. The view overlooking the river bed was stunning and we were lucky to see Elephants and Buffalo using the riverbed from our balcony. The customer service at the lodge was second to none - when we arrived we had packed for warm weather but an unseasonably cold front with high winds greeted us for day 1 and the owners lent us coats and windbreakers for the whole stay to keep us warm on the drives. The drives themselves are stunning. We had Given as our ranger and he was sensational. He listened to what we wanted to see and not only met but exceeded our expectations with some incredible sightings. Black Rhino and African Painted Dogs (with puppies) were real highlights as we hadn’t seen them before! Lastly, we have to mention the food. It is sensational. We have food requirements for one of our party with Gluten and Vegetarian and yet the food was absolutely incredible. It was fine dining every meal to an exceptional standard. All in all, it was incredible, and a Lodge I would thoroughly recommend. If you are going to South Africa to relax, eat well, be treated as family and safari, this place is perfect.

Nothing!

The location of the lodge is wonderful. The rooms have an excellent view to the river where the animals roam around. Good for game viewing and relaxing between the game drives. Good food (they cared very well for the dietary requirements of my wife). The chalets are modern and very well maintained.

no tea cooking facilities in the room. Anything else was perfect.

The lodge is beautifully located in the middle of the bush overlooking a river bed where we could watch elephants, buffalos & co. strolling along from our sun decks. Wonderful! The warmhearted people as well as the lovely prepared, delicious food made us feel sooo comfortable and relaxed. And there were our phantastic game drives with Given who showed us the big and the small and allowed plenty of time to just watch them. Too bad we had to leave but we will be back. 😀

Just be aware there is no air condition or WLAN in the rooms. (but great connection in the lounge area) We didn‘t mind at all and enjoyed the free bush cinema.

An Unforgettable Stay at Greenfire Safari Lodge - A Perfect Vacation Amidst Nature We had the pleasure of spending 7 days at Greenfire Safari Lodge ( privat game reserve @ Greater Krueger National Park ) in South Africa and we would like to share our experiences. From start to finish, our stay was simply outstanding. The lodge's location by the Olifant river is breathtaking and provides a picturesque setting for a relaxing and nature-filled vacation. The food at the lodge was simply fantastic. Each meal was prepared with great attention to detail and offered a wide selection of delicious dishes. The quality of the food was exceptional, and it was evident that the kitchen team placed great emphasis on fresh ingredients and taste. We were truly impressed by the variety and culinary experience provided during our stay. The lodge staff was extremely friendly and professional. They were always ready to help and ensure that our stay was as enjoyable as possible. In particular, the safari guide Given who accompanied us on two daily game drives was simply the best. His extensive knowledge of wildlife and passion for nature were palpable. He knew exactly where to go for the best animal sightings and explained everything to us with great enthusiasm. Each game drive was a real adventure that we will never forget. We saw a lot of animals close by our safari jeep, we never expect before. However, what truly made our stay unforgettable were the two charming hosts, Carol and Nigel. They made the lodge feel like a home away from home. Their warm hospitality and personalities made us feel immediately comfortable and welcome. They personally took care of every detail and created a family-like atmosphere that made our stay truly special. Overall, we wholeheartedly recommend Greenfire Safari Lodge. The location, the food, the staff, and the hosts were simply top-notch.
