Property Notes

The lodge is approximately 45 minutes to an hour from the Malelane gate and therefore it is recommended that flights to / from Kruger Mpumalanga Airport (KMIA/MQP) are booked to arrive before 2:30 pm on day of arrival and depart after 10 am on day of departure. The camp is half way between Skukuza and Malelane gates, approximately 22 miles in both directions with only 2 miles of dirt road. Due to the rules and regulations of the Kruger National Park, nobody is allowed on any Kruger National Park roads during the period of gates being closed. Therefore guests must be at their destination by the time the gates close. Jock is located in a malaria area, but incidents are very low. However, guests should still take precautions.Please inform of your expected arrival time in advance. You can use the Special Requests box when booking, or contact the property directly using the contact details in your confirmation. Managed by a private host A deposit may be required at the property.

We stayed in a lodge, we had our own little plunge pool and outside bath and shower, having a bath in the bush listening to the birdsong was an amazing experience.

"Can’t wait to return - a perfect holiday."

10.0

Jock Safari is amazing, this was our second visit and we can’t wait to return. Our guide Jan was exceptional, he is knowledgeable and his enthusiasm for the bush is infectious - each game drive was brilliant. All of the staff are professional and friendly. The food and service are second to none. The little touches throughout the stay make it extra special.

"A-may-zing!!"

10.0

We had an amazing 2 days at Jock Lodge. All of the staff were excellent and couldn't do enough for us. Our room was fabulous. The quality of the food was up there with the best restaurants we would subsequently eat at in Cape Town. But the highlight were the 4 game drives with Jan (Jani) and the experiences & sightings we shared with 1 other couple on the first day and just ourselves on the 2nd day. To be on a concession within Kruger is just so much better than being out on the public roads. Priceless.

Nothing springs to mind.

"One of the best safari experiences I have had after living in SA for 40 years."

10.0

Game sightings, accommodation, location and staff were all excellent. Food was delicious and abundant. Each day was something new. Leopard, lion, buffalo, rhino and lots of elephant : what’s not to like.

Nothing not to like here.
