Kings camp is absolutely stunning and their attention to detail makes the whole trip so special and unique. The rooms are beautiful and even though there are two long game drives a day there is also plenty of time to relax. The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented. We went expecting not to see many animals but we... more

If you had to choose only one game lodge to go to in Kruger, this is more than worth the price. There are more expensive private game lodges but this camp is run perfectly. The help is great and always smiling and friendly. The manager and wife sit and eat with the guest. The game rides are terrific, Colbert the... more

This is an amazing hotel - we have stayed in hotels all over the world and this has to be one of the best we have stayed in. The staff are all, without exception, excellent and always ready to please and our ranger morne and his tracker were amazing. We saw all the animals we had hoped to see and... more

I was born and raised in Durban South Africa but never got to the Kruger National Park area until my fourth trip back since I emigrated in the 70s. King's Camp is everything people say about it in these reviews: spectacular accommodations, great food, great service from thoughtful staff, two enjoyable three+ hour long drives a day where you can... more

We visited kings Camp in October 2008 for 4 nights as part of our honeymoon.... what an AMAZING place. We truly cannot explain what an incredible experience a visit to Kings Camp is. The accommodation is beautiful and very romantic... as were on honeymoon one night we were treated to dinner on the veranda of our lodge with our own... more

We stayed 4 nights at Kings Camp. We were picked up at Huidspruit airport and transferred by road (40 mins). The welcome with a cool towel and drink was lovely. The suites are very comfy and spacious and the artistic welcome note with feathers was a lovely touch. Had an hour or so to unpack then our first game drive... more

I have never, never given this high a rating to any place I have visited. King's Camp is one of those places you dream of and know it can't exist. Not only does it provide you with a life altering experience through Safari but caters to you in a relaxed, friendly manner so you become oblivious to reality. I didn't... more

We stayed at Kings Camp to celebrate our 20th aniversary. The camp was recommended by a travel agent friend as a "hidden gem". This is a five star lodge experience priced below comparable lodges. Staff was OUTSTANDING, Grounds were BEAUTIFUL, Rooms were ROMANTIC and done in elegant safari style, food was delicious. The Rangers/Guides were great and we saw the... more

Stunning, Unforgettable. The staff, accommodations, food,everything...perfection. We were able to see almost every animal there. We could've reached out and touched the elephants, lions (!), giraffes, though we did stay a bit further from the rhinos and hippos. We could look into the eyes of the leopards that we tracked. It was amazing. Our supper in the "bush" was lovely.... more

We have just returned from our Africa journey and Kings Camp was definitely one of the highlights. If you go, make sure to take advantage of the walking tours after the delicious breakfast....truly educational (plus the exercise feels good after all the fabulous food they serve). We even had our ranger learn how to make martinis for sundowners. Favorite memory... more
