Location was excellent looking out to bush and animals. All food was excellent, a very high standard and there was plenty of it!

I would suggest a pizza night on the menu lol but that’s me just being fussy

Pretty much everything, the tent is so spacious and comfortable and truly makes you feel you’re out there in the wild, all the staff was so friendly and attentive, the food was delicious and the tour definitely the best part of it all, thanks to Thabo and Daniel for making our experience absolutely amazing, we won’t forget this easily.

My only feedback would be stop making coffee from the machine at the bar, the in-room coffee-pod machine makes it so much better lol the team is obviously not baristas.

Kapama Buffalo camp exceeded all expectations. It’s a small and more interment accommodation compared to their other camps on site. We stayed 3 nights, and managed to see the Big 5 and the Ugly 5 within our stay. Each game drive had no more than 6 in the vehicle which meant everyone had a side seat with a perfect view. While it’s obviously not guaranteed I found the team did everything possible to see all animals. Saying this, I do think we had the best guide - Ben. The wake up calls at 5am were made manageable when you have an amazing guide like Ben. And, an all inclusive stay made everything so easy - great food, awesome local wines.

Idyllic location for game viewing. Staff and facilities were exceptional. We saw Elephant, Rhino, Zebra, and Giraffe just on our way in from the airport. Managed to see all of the ‘Big 5’ by the following morning ! Guides were exceptional. Food and service were outstanding. Not cheap but definitely well worth the money.

Nothing. Everything was absolutely amazing

Buffalo camp is one of the best places we have ever stayed. The tents are pure luxury. The service is 5 star right down to the blankets & water bottles provided on the chilly morning & evening game drives. The food is incredible. Everything is so seamlessly organised. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and really go above and beyond to make the experience amazing.

Communication prior to stay could have been earlier & clearer. I got some specific instructions a day or two before our stay while we were already in transit. Once there, communication was good with the on site staff.

Amazing stay at Kapama. Staff was awesome & food was fantastic. But of course, we were there to see the animals & were not disappointed. Although pricey, the rooms & everything included exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend.

Having to leave 😭

Everything. What an experience this has been! The property is located inside Kapama Private Game Reserve, just a 20-30 minutes ride from the airport (which started well - on our way, we saw quite a few animals, including a beautiful resting lion). The staff is wonderful - so friendly and helpful, they really do go an extra mile to make your stay as memorable as possible. The room is spacious and beautifully decorated. The game drives leave you speechless. This was our third safari - and definitely it had been the best one! And we were genuinely surprised by the quality and diversity of food and drinks - menu changes every day, everything is very fresh and tasty, with a great selection of alcohol and wines. When we checked out, wonderful Claire asked us if we were said - when we said of course, she replied that it’s the goal to never want you to leave and to look forward to coming back! And we already are!

We had three fantastic days at Kapama Game Reserve, Buffalo Camp. The tents were incredible and the food very good. The game drives were amazing. Our game driver did a great job. Very knowledgeable information given during the drives.

5-Star camp in the middle of a gorgeous private game reserve. There is absolutely nothing I would change. This place is a gem!

Super friendly staff. Made everything easy for us, from airport pickup to accommodating any other needs. The game drives were amazing and tour guides were great.

We found the lighting in our tent to be very dim. A hook to hang small towels and facecloths would be helpful. Shelves or drawers to put things would be more useful than the tub which we didn’t use. I didn’t like the window on the world in the shower!

Food was excellent. We appreciated the bottle of wine for our Anniversary, thank you. Our guides, Themba and Kenneth, were the best! Friendly, knowledgeable, sense of humour. They did everything they could to ensure we saw the animals we wanted to see. Highly recommend them!

Jeffrey, our guide, was amazing! He made the safari experience such an unforgettable memory. Him and Brighton were wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable. We have been able to see all the Big 5. The staff was nice, the room perfectly clean, food was good and you get fed a lot.

It was perfect

The Buffalo Camp provides a wonderful experience. The rooms are spacious and beautiful, and the food is creative and delicious. But the main reason for going is the chance to see the wild animals. We had never expected to be in such close proximity to such a wide range of African animals. The driver and tracker were exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable, and every excursion into the bush was a memorable experience. It completely exceeded our expectations. We were so so sorry to leave.

We (couple) LOVED everything there. I cannot overstate my appreciation of this stay at Kapama Buffalo Camp. We felt warmly welcomed and looked after, it was lovely from start till the end - all the hospitality staff were wonderful at their job. We were very fortunate for the safari game drives as well being able to spot all the Big 5 and the experience was made amazing by Themba and Foster. It was a life-changing experience. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I honestly cannot point out anything! It was amazing!

Incredible service from the time we arrived until we had left. We were lucky enough to spot the big 5 in just two game drives and witnessed a lion hunt. The open safari experience was exhilarating in comparison to other 5 star lodges visited previously. The staff are so friendly and welcoming! The luxury tent was superb in every aspect, exactly as advertised. Food was delicious and my husband is vegetarian so his meals were also well catered for and divine. We also tried the River Lodge Spa, this was one of the finest spas I have been too.
