The location is very remote and there were tons of animals all around the lodge. We loved the elephants that came to the watering hole each day. The service, food, accommodation, game drives were all excellent and exceeded our expectations. We can't wait to go back!

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.

Motswiri exceeded expectations. The main lodge bar and dining area were beautiful and welcoming. We stayed in the family villa and it was so comfortable, well decorated, great spot to see animals walking to the water hole. Staff is so friendly. We loved riding with Barry - great animal spotter and tracker, very informative and engaging, and so fun to spend time with. A big thank you to Petunia in the main lodge for always engaging with the kids when we returned from drive! and for the great massage! In the reservations team, Tammy was amazing! And of course, Bill - who has great stories to share about drives!

Amazing experience. Very intimate small lodge with an authentic feel. Food was superb. Staff and service were wonderful. Twice daily game drives were incredible. Our ranger was very knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure we had the best experience and were lucky to see all the Mag 7 the park has to offer. You will not be disappointed!

Our stay was absolutely fantastic and what a beautifil place! The staff were exceptional — they know every guest so well and treat you in such a personal and thoughtful way. From arrival to departure, they make every night feel like a fairytale. The small heated pools at each house were very cozy, and the shared pool was beautiful. Everything is perfectly arranged for the guests. I would 100% recommend this place to everyone! Deen, our ranger, did an amazing job making sure we saw everything we wanted and more. He also had great stories for everything we saw, which made the experience even more special.
