Kapama River Lodge

Amazing experience. Here for honeymoon and we spent 3 fantastic days. Both day and night safari are unique and food and service is outstanding

We absolutely loved our stay at Kapama. This was our first trip to South Africa and first safari experience. I had high expectations based on all the positive reviews and accolades and my expectations were exceeded! The facilities, service, food, safari are all top notch! We didn't have to worry about transport from the airport all taken care of by Kapama. The ride to lodge is short but so fun. The facility is tastefully designed and decorated. I really appreciate the low profile nature of the lodge and it blends in nicely with it's surroundings. The family suite was very spacious, clean, modern amenities and very comfortable. The food is very good and tasty with many options to choose from. Israel was our server for the duration of our stay and he was so kind, nice, helpful, attentive. We really enjoyed chatting with him. Service was excellent. We went out on every safari available including the walk about and this was largely due to our guide Jordan and tracker Witness. We saw so many animals large and small and yes we saw the big 5. We learned so much from them and they made each safari outing special and unique. We had so much fun and laughter with our safari crew such a good time! Highlights include being in the middle of large herd of elephants, Amurula at sunset, being embedded with a pride of lions at night, and seeing the elusive leopard on our last morning safari. Thank you so much Jordan and Witness we miss you guys! Visited the wellness center and got a massage and bubble bath overlooking the river. Afterwards, my daughter said I look years younger...that says it all! Kapama was an unforgettable and magical experience from start to finish. We were sad to leave.

My entire experience was incredible. I would absolutely go back. this is truly a 5 star experience from the game drives, dining, spa/wellness center, pools, experiences, etc.

Come to Kapama River Lodge if you want to have a great safari experience. Best in class experience to both relax and enjoy the beauty of the bush

Wonderful memories. Great hospitality. Excellent food and views. Tours very well organised. Guides are exceptional.

I had a trip to africa in 2018 and it was a disaster when it came to instalations that we were and I left the country with a very bad impression. 2024 came, and with it, a business trip in a group of about 30 business partners plus 30 staff and Kapama change ALL of my bad impression from South Africa. I am truly gratefull, because it is indeed a fabulous country and a life-time trip. For sure I am going to come back.

An absolutely magical and enchanting experience. From the moment they pick you up from the airport to the moment they drop you off, you are whisked away to a world like no other. The River Lodge was absolutely amazing from the rooms, the service, and the food, everything was on point. While I’m sure all the Guides & Trackers are amazing Donovan and Bernard went above and beyond and they made our trip an absolute dream! We saw the BIG FIVE and every game drive was just breathtaking! Kapama is a MUST on anyone’s list for a safari! You will not be disappointed and you will have memories that will last a lifetime! THANK YOU KAPAMA!! 🥰

Luxurious, elegant accommodations in beautiful South African game preserve. Safari and wildlife adventure exceeded all expectations. One in a lifetime experience!

Kapama River Lodge was a unique safari experience! We did not expect any adventure by going on a safari in a private game reserve, but Kapama has delivered us everything. Not only we saw the big five extremely close, but also hyenas, wild cats, baboons, hypos, zebras, warthog, etc. The most exciting part was a Giraffe fight followed by a lion hunting. We have experienced that due to the competence and simplicity of our rangers, Las (Vegas) and Panik! They are very good people, professionals and the truly essence of this place. We are really glad to get to know them and to have been guided by them. The hotel facilities are also great. It really connects you with the wildlife experience. The spa is amazing. The staff is very professional and friendly.
