An absolute little jewel in the Gritjie private game reserve. JP & Danielle and at the time also their daughter Camille gave our honeymoon stay the absolute perfect touch. Extra champagne and a personal congratulations card gives you bubbles in your belly as well. 🥰 JP is an excellent ranger with a lot of knowledge which he enjoys to share and Danielle make the best food to your preferences you can imagine. You can rest assured that you will not leave this place hungry. This is the best safari experience we have ever had. Although we did not see an overwhelming amount of animals but that is a total lottery. This stay was totally A-mazing!!! 🤩😍

My husband and I spent 3 amazing days there. The place and our room were so quiet and peaceful, all the meals were perfect and also loved our routine there. Our game drive guide Nial was amazing, friendly and gave us full of information about the animals we found, gave us space to take as many photos as we wanted. We also loved Audrey, she was so kind and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable. The whole staff truly made a huge different in our stay at Muweti. Thank you all!

Meals were great. Rooms are large, comfortable and very clean. Michel & Aruna were very welcoming and have a wealth of knowledge about the animals, birds and area. We had elephants in the garden and left tea half way through to go Lion spotting

I had a really beautiful stay at the lodge. As a solo traveller, Milima did an excellent job to make sure I had everything I needed and could access all opportunities. Thomas, one of the rangers, was incredible. He's super knowledgable and just a delightful human. I hope to return again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Safari Experience at Amava River Lodge From the moment we arrived at the gates of Amava River Lodge, the safari magic began. Game viewing starts immediately – elephants, giraffes, and antelope welcome you before you’ve even unpacked your bags. What truly sets Amava apart, though, is the people. Cathleen, Euchan, Godfrey, Geshom, Aaron, Sandiso, Elaine, Louie, Tanya, and Quintin make you feel like part of the family from the very first day. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail create an atmosphere of both comfort and refined elegance. The location and facilities are outstanding – the safari tents are the very definition of luxury, blending seamlessly into the wilderness while offering every modern comfort. At night, falling asleep to the sounds of lions, elephants and hippos just outside the camp is an experience I’ll never forget. Every meal was a highlight in itself – the food is on par with a Michelin-star restaurant, beautifully prepared and presented. And the guiding? Exceptional. The knowledge and passion of the guides and trackers elevate each game drive into something truly special. A must-do is the walking tour with the legendary Graham Cooke. Spending time with him is nothing short of inspirational; his depth of knowledge and life stories are fascinating – you could easily spend hours just listening. Amava River Lodge manages to combine world-class safari experiences with the heart of a family-run lodge. It’s a rare and beautiful combination, and we left feeling deeply grateful and already planning our return. If you’re looking for an unforgettable African safari that delivers luxury, authenticity, and soul, Amava River Lodge is it.

The location was good on the dried river bed. Plenty of animals used it to get to the watering hole. You can just relax in the pool and watch the animals. The was well equipped. The host was friendly and made sure we enjoyed our stay.

A fantastic private lodge with a beautiful rooms and tastefully decorated. The host Ian is outstanding as a person. If you are there especially for the hide photography I would recommend 4 days. We were unlucky with the two days we stayed in terms of sightings but that all changed the day we left. Hence would recommend at least 3 if not 4-5 days to better your chances.

its a big 5.

its a big 5. BUT because of so many private properties you can not game drive much of the reserve like other reserves and also within the reserve the owners of the lodges seem to not like each other that much. they gossip a lot about each other ( i did stay in different places in this reserve ) and i did not have this issue in other game reserves.

Dear Lengau Lodge Team,

Dear Lengau Lodge Team, We would like to sincerely thank you for our three-day stay with you. Loek and Ilse warmly welcomed us upon our arrival and patiently explained everything to us. On the same day, we went on an afternoon safari with Loek, which was simply wonderful. On the way to the lodge, we even encountered a group of elephants. Already on the first day, we were able to admire impalas, elephants, and lions. The location of the lodge directly in the Great Kruger Park is simply phenomenal. In the evenings, we could hear the roar of the lions, and the soundscape was truly unique. The lodge itself was very clean and tastefully decorated. We particularly enjoyed the pool area, from which you have a direct view of the bush and can observe animals. This was a wonderful opportunity to experience nature and wildlife up close. Loek was an extremely friendly safari guide and had extensive knowledge. We also had the pleasure of booking the gin tasting, which we can definitely recommend. It was evident that Luug and Ilse were very committed to providing their guests with a pleasant stay. However, we would also like to honestly share our experience that we felt unable to express every wish, as we were afraid of asking for too much. In our opinion, the food was not always sufficient, and instead of a breakfast buffet, there was a pre-set breakfast menu. We would have liked to be treated more individually as guests and to have felt that our wishes were positively received. Nevertheless, we would like to emphasize that overall we were satisfied with our stay at Lengau Lodge and would gladly recommend it. The warmth and efforts of Loek and Ilse impressed us, and the location of the lodge in the Great Kruger Park is simply unbeatable. We are glad to have chosen this lodge. Thank you once again for your hospitality. Kind regards, Dimitri&Rabia
