I was supervising a student working at Thakadu and was accommodated for one night at the lodge. The accommodation and food was very good. Staff very friendly and accommodating of my needs. While I did not participate in any game drives activities the other guests did and loved it. There is a lot of game and birds around the camp should one decide to relax on the stoep. This is a community run lodge and I would recommend that anyone wanting to visit Madikwe book at Thakadu.

An excellent six day stay. The Itinerary was perfect to our needs. Great sightings of animals. Superb food and attentive staff. Accommodation was clean and comfortable. This was our first safari encounter, but we have no hesitation in recommending this location.

From start to finish our stay here was amazing Game drives started at 5:30am and again at 4pm . During the day we chilled by the pool and watched the animals in the watering hole , which in itself was amazing Taino was our driver and he did everything he could to make our game drives special We managed to see the 4 out of the big 5. Elephants , Rhino , Zebra Giraffes and lions to name but a few The drinks nibbles and blankets provided were also a special touch during the drive Food was very tasty and service impeccable Would I recommend this place ? Most certainly yes . We will treasure our memories forever Thank you so much

We just spent 3 nights at Thakadu River Camp. Jerry is an amazing game ranger who went out of his way to give us a spectacular game-viewing experience. The tents were immaculate, the food excellent and the staff friendly and welcoming. We highly recommend this beautiful place.

We stayed in two tents here, and I have to say AC in a tent was a new one for me, but greatly appreciated during the heat of summer. Our drive was Satiss, and he's an absolute gem. Game here is crazy plentiful. Before I lost count, we had 15 rhino sightings (including one black), 5 wild dogs sighted, 5 lions (2 males), and far too many elephants to count, including one here one of 22. Food was splendid and huge portions. You must go to the deck area at the end opposite the tents to see what is playing in the water. An elephant entertained us and seemed to take as much joy frolicking in the water as we enjoyed his antics. Staff here was top-notch. I have no complaints whatsoever!

What a memorable, wonderful experience at Thakadu River Camp. Every aspect was superb, from the staff, game-ranger, game viewing, food and environment. I loved the resident elephant who hangs around the watering hole at the lodge, which was such a joy to watch. The stars were so bright that it felt like you could pluck them straight out of the sky! I can't wait to return.

All was amazing, the people, the place, the food, the safari, the view. I have been sick with fever during most time of my stay but all the workers took care of me. I had an amazing experience and I would definitely come back.
