Guest reviews for Moditlo River Lodge
"Good service, nice stuff, and excellent field guide"
"It’s not easy to see animals. You need to spent time looking for them."
"Everything is perfect and the team who works there is amazing, unbelievable people!!!"
"Nothing!"
"Everything was outstanding- facilities, accommodations, food, safari and most importantly the staff. They were hospitable, kind and true professionals- who wore perpetual smiles on their faces."
"There was nothing to dislike."
"Excellent everything from the setting to the staff was immaculate, shout to Rico and M’doo as well!"
"Aucun."
"The place is fantastic. Everything is clean, tidy and well designed. Everyone from the staff was super kind. They really make you feel welcome. The reserve is quite large and it has plenty of animals. We saw elephants, giraffes, lions, zebras, hippos, pangolins, cheetahs, warthogs and all sorts of antelopes. It was fantastic. Special mention to Rico (guide) and Mdu (tracker). They were both extremely knowledgeable, kind, engaging and fun! They went the extra mile ensuring we saw everything we wanted to see. They made sure we always got a good view of the animals and that we were comfortable. They answered all our questions and kept us involved in the decision making of that to do next. 10/10."
"Just 2 minor things, not impacting the 10/10 score. 1) Some drinks were included some others weren't, but we didn't find out until checking out. The drinks during the drives were included the ones during meals were not. Just a surprise bill at the end. Prices were reasonable anyway, we were just not fully informed of how it worked and caught us by surprise. 2).There is a little gap between their internal rules (checkout at 11am) and what is posted on booking (checkout at 12am)."
"Everything! From the location inside the park, to the food, the game, the friendliest staff in the planet!"
"Nothing."

"Nothing. Everything was good."
"Property was beautiful with animals all around the villas, so you're immersed in nature surrounded by a lot of the animals you'll want to see at the actual lodge and you're not limited to seeing them just in the game drives, which is amazing. You have kudu, gnala, monkeys, giraffes and elephants all around. Incredible vibe and dynamic!"
"Zero complaints."
