Crocodile Bridge Safari Lodge

Everything at this wonderful place was great: Location (3 minutes from Crocodile Bridge Gate entrance to the Kruger Park) Facilities Pricewise unbeatable Views over the river Tents and bungalows Personnel, so friendly and helpful Food. Extremely delicious dinners Tip: there should be a total ban on smoking on the premises

The setting doesn't disappoint. Watching elephants crossing the Crocodile River in the morning and evening is almost guaranteed as is watching hippos graze when the afternoon gets cooler and early evening. Situated right next to Crocodile Bridge Gate you can start viewing animals immediately after starting out. We had three river-facing chalets which were beautiful and well appointed with a kitchenette area. We rented numbers 8, 9 and 10. Personally the kitchenette was unnecessary because of the way we approached our stay so I will choose the river-facing tent number 5 without the kitchenette for my next stay. A basic breakfast can be arranged to take in your car if you want to set out before the set breakfast time. The viewing deck is well situated and a fabulous place to gather with a bevvie and a chat about what's been spotted during your day. Dinner was simple but tasted good and we loved the braai evenings. The pool was also a welcome refresher after a long day in the car and towels were provided by the lodge. We'll definitely be back. This was one of my best Kruger Park experiences. The only drawback is that you have to pay each day to enter the park.

We have spent a wonderful week at Crocodile Bridge Safari Lodge. Perfect location with sightings from the lodge, very kind service, clean rooms.

Fantastic view to watch the animals during the whole day from the deck. The animals are on the other side of the river but also walking just before your room e.g. Hippo, waterbock. The teams are very friendly and the food is good. It is a nice atmosphere with the other guests while chatting the meals ore in between or at the fire. The location itself is very good and perfect for starting tours in the Kruger - the gate is three minutes away.
