We visited Moditlo for a week to celebrate my sister's 40th birthday, we stayed specifically in the Ukanyi lodge. The lodge is amazing, spacious, luxurious and in a brilliant location. We did two game drives a day, Jika and Caswell were our driver and tracker and made every outing an adventure. We saw the big five within the first couple of days, their dedication to find animals was incredible! During each morning drive we stopped for a 'Bush coffee' (if you're offered one, have it!) and then during each evening drive we were offered G&Ts - all amongst the animals. Those looking after us back at our villa were amazing, our chef, housekeeper and butler were incredibly attentive. The food was amazing, I've never eaten so much good food in a space of a week, you're really looked after! I can't thank everyone involved who made this week so amazing, a truly once in a lifetime experience - I'm sad to leave!

We were absolutely enchanted by Moditlo River Lodge. We were warmly welcomed by Christabel, and upon arriving in our room, we were blown away by the luxury of this place—simply wonderful. It was very comfortable, well-equipped, well-stocked, and full of small details that delighted us. The housekeeper came twice a day, with the last visit being to prepare the bed for us to sleep in! How amazing is that? The safaris were also incredible—we were very lucky to have a guide like Dumi and a tracker like Derick, both highly experienced in finding the animals. The only part we didn’t like much was the food. We had only one plated dinner, which was sensational, but on the other days, breakfast, lunch, and dinner lacked variety and were often bland. Honestly, I expected more in this regard because a lodge like Moditlo should offer meals that match its standard, not just a single outstanding dinner. For this reason, I couldn’t give it a perfect score, which is a shame because it is flawless in every other aspect.

We, a family of 5, spent 3 nights over Chrismas at the Moditlo River Lodge having an outstanding 5-Star experience. In a perfectly arranged lodge complex nicely embedded into the bush, a lovely service team was showing true passion for hosting guests. …and then the game drives … just mindblowing…special thanks to Derrik and Janno for taking us to fantastic spots and sharing so much of your bush expertise … value time we will never forget!!!

This is one of the best stays I’ve had, the food was great, hospitality was amazing. The safari was well organised, we had Chris as our tracker and Sidon was our guide. The guys have a world of knowledge when it comes to tracking and general knowledge of the animals. They were quite often finding the animals before any of the other companies operating in the area. They will keep you safe, and also get you out of your comfort zone.

We absolutely loved our stay at Moditlo River Lodge, we will be recommending it to all of our family and friends! All of the staff were so welcoming and efficient. We especially enjoyed our safari drives with Sidon and Chris, who went out of their way to make sure we saw as many animals as possible, while keeping us comfortable and safe.

Four nights in this high end lodge. Unforgettable safari drives in the bush with experienced rangers. Saw our big five all within arm’s reach thanks to the expert guidance of our rangers. Attentive staff who looked after all our needs and had given us more food than we could eat. Food was delicious! Total immersion in nature and human kindness.

We had an incredible and memorable family holiday at the Moditlo River Lodge. The hospitality of the staff, cleanliness of the room and facilities and food quality served exceeded our expectations! The chefs were excellent in the preparation of the meals and waiting staff most kind. Special thanks to the chefs and management for accommodating HALAL meat options for our dietary needs! The best part of the trip were the game drives. Rico (driver/guide) and Mdu (watcher/tracker) were an excellent duo for our 4 game drives. Their professionalism, experience, knowledge of the animals, humor, conduct and priority in safety were excellent! My kids, wife and I had an amazing and unforgettable experience as we tracked the Big 5 and more with Rico's skills and sense of adventure. Will definitely recommend the Moditlo River Lodge stay and game drives with Rico and Mdu to all our family and friends.

This place is a 10 of 10. The room, the food (I’ve never thought I could enjoy it as much as I did), every part of the lodge, the entire environment by it self, and of course their people, are absolutely amazing. Junce welcomed us like we were arriving to paradise, which definitily now I can say it is. The waiters were completely professional and warm with us, and absolutely all the staff made us feel as home. Our guide Janno and trucker Derick, are just incredible in all senses and make the safari adventure turns to the next level. Not my first safari, but the best one withouth no doubt thanks to them. The full experience was just perfect. I left my heart in Moditlo River Lodge and will came back for sure.
