Moditlo River Lodge

This was a wonderful experience. The staff were very helpful and extremely friendly. The food was great and the safari drives, guide and tracker were excellent.The accommodation was exelent and rooms where comfortable and very clean,make a booking!

We booked the Ukanyi villa (3 bedroom with en suite) + private plunge pool. All activities included (game drives, meals, butler, maid, chef, guard) and we added on excursion for half day Kruger National Park (Moditlo is a private game reserve in the Greater Kruger) and also the spa. The best part: 1) our ranger (Reco) and tracker (Mdo) was so keen on spotting all the animals - not only the extensive bird species, but we got to complete the big 5 at 3rd day - the skittish leopard being the hardest. And after that day, they managed to track another leopard and with them, we went to the distance by getting close but safely near the lions, elephants, cheetah, leopards, rhinos, giraffe and others. We gained so much information from Reco and he did deliver up to and exceeding beyond our expectations, while writing this in Hamad Intnl Airport, I missed Moditlo already. 2) Thanks to Ukanyi team - Thuli our butler, chef Ken and maid Jenet for accommodating us for 4nights we're there. And the managers - for adressing to our halal requirement, and provided the best meal throughout 3) The location is not far from Kruger Orpen gate, or the Eastgate airport Be sure to bring extra for tipping the staffs because they truly deserve it! Lastly, the spa service was exceptional, masseuse was professional and the chirping cicadas gave relaxing mood. Maybe can add products used for guests to buy, especially the milk bath you guys put in the villa. This is our 1st experience going to African safari, and there couldnt be any better place to be rather than in the hands of the best ranger Reco!

Our stay at Moditlo was spectacular and wonderful. The fully equipped cabins, set in an unparalleled environment, allowed us to fully enjoy the Kruger Park experience. Our guide, Reco, and our tracker, Darek, made our safari an incredible adventure. They are very professional, friendly, and pleasant. Highly recommended!

Wonderful trip from the day we arrived! Everything is planned perfectly! A real big shout out to our game driver and tracker Rico and Mdu who made our experience extraordinary! They shared incredible insights, stories and many laughs! Thank you guys!!
