Baobab Ridge

Cannot say enough great things about Baobab Ridge. The staff was exceptional and made our trip special. They went above and beyond the entire stay. World class experience all around. The game drives were unforgettable and we were able to see the Big 5 and more throughout. Always felt safe and our guide (David - the absolute best) was so kind and had such a unique way of communicating throughout our drives. The meals were amazing and every dinner they had something special planned for us. It was our Honeymoon and no matter what, they kept doing something that would go the extra mile to make our experience outstanding. The rooms are more of a personal house with a cloud of a king bed. They cleaned the room twice a day and then also did our laundry (was not expecting that level of service). The lodge is a short trip from the airport and has amazing views by the pool. Not to mention a watering hole where we saw so many different animals (including 25 elephants taking a bath while getting served drinks). I could write a full novel of the each aspect of this place. We had friends stay at lodges that were 2x the price and not even close to our experience. Stay at Baobab and you will not regret it!

Baobab Ridge is very well located in Greater Kruger. The accommodation is clean and well equipped. The food is excellent, the staff is very friendly. Priveledge the host and the new owner, Nic, are doing a great job! But above all, the guides on the game drives are superb and they know a lot of the animals and fauna. We enjoyed every single minute!

Only good things to say about our stay! The staff was incredible. Our room was comfortable and spacious. Food was amazing!!! I have fish and dairy allergies and they were beyond accommodating, making many special (and delicious) meals for me. There is a watering hole near the pool/lunch area and we had such incredible views of elephants, warthogs, etc while we ate and relaxed. The biggest shout out goes to our game driver Movan (I hope I spelled that right) - he was the best guide! Very informative and we had a great time with him. Stay as long as you can, to increase the chance of seeing all the animals you’d like to see. We stayed four nights and were very happy with all of the sightings!!

We had a wonderful stay at Baobab Ridge lodge. The lodges are huge and comfortably furnished in African style. All staff was really friendly and attentive. Our ranger did the best game drives with a lot of animals we have seen and really educational. The Klaserie area has open boarders to Kruger park and animals can move free there. Everything was at a fair price except the airport transfer to hoedspruit which we found quite expensive. Nevertheless we highly recommend to stay at Baobab!
