Everything was amazing! All of the staff are so nice and accommodating, and the safaris are spectacular. You do two game drives a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, and we were so lucky. We saw amazing things on every game drive and even had one day were we saw the whole big five (and more!). The facilities are also lovely with a great viewing deck looking out at the river where we saw elephants, water buffalo, giraffes, baboons, zebras, monkeys, impalas, and more. This place is fabulous and I would recommend it to everyone. They also take conservation really seriously and do their best to not bother the animals.

My wife and I stayed 5 nights. It surpassed my expectations in all aspects of our stay. The game drives are amazing. The private nature preserve experience, while a bit expensive, turned out to be a good value. This preserve is adjacent to the park and the wildlife has unfettered access to both. The level of intimacy in the wildlife viewing just cannot be appreciated until you experience it. I do not think you could get this in a simple excursion into Krueger Park itself where you are limited to the public roads. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and personable. The food, accommodations, and service were all excellent. One afternoon the elephants dug up the water lines from the well. The staff worked thru the night to restore service by morning. Even this added to the adventure.

There was really nothing I disliked about this stay.

The view from the public areas is fantastic and the staff are so friendly and helpful. I loved having different places to eat the meals. And the food is superb! Our guide was knowledgeable and committed. In all, a wonderful stay. A gym would be ideal, just to be able to burn away some of the delicious calories we consumed! And note that the garden rooms don't have baths and no view, the photos on the site are mostly of the new suites overlooking the river.

A hotel in the middle of the wilderness. At least once in a lifetime I recommend to switch off and go on a quality safari, to experience the peace and sounds of nature. This hotel is perfect! The service is top notch and everyone is nice. Our guide Elvys was great and we saw all the animals in 5 days. Thank you so much for a great experience, I believe I will be back.

Everything was perfect!

Everything The staff was fantastic (specially our guide Kucho!), the position amazing. We spent 3 days in the lodge and we saw all the big five (and much more!) in our games. The food was fantastic, the fireplace every evening at dinner was romantic, the little monkeys visiting while we were in the pool were so nice.. the room was perfect, the views at breakfast and lunch we’re beautiful.. we felt at home.

Not being able to stay longer!

beautiful boutique home. stunning views. great food, lovely staff, very knowledgeable ranger, comfortable room: Simply perfect. great for couples for a 2-4 day stay. it’s a bit far from nearest facilities (>1 hr drive) but in return you get amazing views up till the horizon where you don’t see anything manmade: Truly unique

The manager, in all her friendliness, can be a bit too dominant and overwhelming at times. it’s a thin line between ‘elegant’ and ‘too much’ but at this level you expect this to be understood naturally. we were, for example, made to feel that our voluntary tip for the team at the end was not enough. In appreciation for the hospitality we gave > €150. it’s the only remark we have as for the rest all was amazing! maybe one small tip: add mosquito doors to the sliding doors in the room to allow for the sounds, smells and breeze to come into the room, but to keep insects out.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Klaseri Drift for two nights and my experience was exceptionally good. The camp is situated in a beautiful natural setting that is surrounded by animals, making it a truly immersive and memorable experience. The number of rooms in the camp is small, which provides a private and peaceful atmosphere that is perfect for relaxing. Additionally, the camp features a viewpoint with a pool, which offers a fantastic opportunity to see animals while enjoying a refreshing swim. During our stay, between the game drives, we observed a group of giraffes hanging about in the area, which was an amazing experience. The service at Klaseri Drift was simply the best we have ever experienced. The staff were extremely attentive to our every need and went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. I would like to give a special mention to Brenda, who was particularly helpful in assisting us with our stay and also helped us to plan our next days of adventure in the KNP. The game drives were an absolute highlight of our trip. We were fortunate enough to see a variety of animals, including a leopard, lions, giraffes, and elephants, among others. Our guide, Kuotso, was incredibly knowledgeable and also a lot of fun, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend Klaseri Drift to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience. The combination of a beautiful natural setting, excellent service, and unforgettable game drives make it a must-visit destination for any wildlife enthusiast.

It was a bit hard to find our way to the camp. It's about 20-30 min drive from the reserve gate to the camp, provided you know the way. There are a few turns that you need to take. At the junctions there are wayfinding signs, but most of them don't have the Klaseri Drift on them, instead they have their old name, Misava. Because of that, it took us longer than anticipated to reach the camp and we missed lunch and 1 game drive. The staff were kind to us and suggested to give us a ride to join the game drive, but we were tired from the drive and accepted an offer for a late lunch instead, which was most appreciated.

10/10 ideal location for an amazing once in a lifetime safari trip. All the staff, chefs, waiters, drivers were exceptional. Food was outstanding and the surroundings are surreal. Kutscho our driver was funny, kind, extremely knowledgable and made our trip!

All credit to the staff including the Ranger/Guide (Wess) for going out of their way to create a memorable experience. The lodge is serene, extremely well kept and loaded with warm smiles and care. The rooms are spacious..the food and bar arrangements are spot on. Too many things to rave about Klaserie but, then it will need a dedicated blog

The bar can be stocked up a bit more..and a standard menu for food might help (over and above the customisations)

We loved the small boutique approach to everything. There weren’t loads of other people staying so we felt looked after in every way. The river room was just superb. Huge. And overlooking the river bed below. The staff were amazing. Our personalised guide, Matt, was such a great guy, and guide, who was passionate about everything to do with sharing the best safari experience possible. Thoroughly recommend.
