Unforgettable Journeys – your way

It’s not surprising that across the world, African safaris consistently rank as one of the most popular adventure travel choices. 

It’s not just about the awesome beauty of Africa’s wild landscapes and the intrigue and majesty of its exceptional wildlife. There are also so many ways to experience African safari holidays, ranging from exclusive luxury lodges to rustic bush camps.

Depending on what you want, an African safari can be an exquisitely romantic getaway, a thrilling multi-generational family holiday, a bonding reunion with best friends or a unique way to celebrate a special occasion. The important thing is that your Kruger safari is an unforgettable journey, experienced your way – and that will forever be, your story to tell.

No day on safari is ever the same. Even if you travel through Kruger on the same route, you never know what you might see. There’s a host of once-in-a lifetime encounters you might experience – spotting Africa’s Big 5, watching a kill, coming across a highly endangered Black Rhino, enjoying the excitement of a rare bird sighting or stopping to watch a dung beetle patiently roll its latest treasure across the road.

At Kruger Gate, the endless thrill of venturing through the Kruger wilds is blended with tranquil luxury of our hotel situated right at the Paul Kruger Gate. Your stay is elevated by relaxing at the Pool Bar & Deck with its endless views into the Park and being pampered at our tree-top African Spa. As night falls, you can choose a starlit dinner around the firepit in our Lapa Restaurant or private dining in a secluded pod overlooking the Sabie River.

The choices are all yours.

Right from the beginning, we were assisted and welcomed with warmth and professionalism by Relax, Sarah, Nolwazi, and their incredible teams. Every aspect of our stay was thoughtfully curated and delivered with genuine care.

The rooms were beautifully prepared, offering comfort and elegance. The food was absolutely delicious — every meal a delight! The game drives were exciting and well-organized, giving us unforgettable moments in nature. And the spa… what a treat! The service throughout was consistently warm, attentive, and heartfelt.

We are so grateful for the time, effort, and hospitality that went into making this trip so special. Thank you for creating such a memorable experience — we’ll cherish it always!

The moment we arrived at the Kruger Gate Hotel, we were enchanted with the construction. The walkways.. the lights at night….
And the drama all added to the ambience. I opened my window and saw monkeys swinging from the trees behind my room! This is not forgettable! Variety at the buffet was insane!
Our servers were anxious to please, the next morning we went on a safari very early, and it was just about walking distance from the hotel! I never expected this. The minute we entered the park our vehicle was surrounded by elephants. And that was just the beginning. This was the experience of a lifetime. We were with Gate One, which is a leading tour company, and as we were leaving the resort, the operations manager approached me. I can’t remember her name.- She was charming.- as was every single person that we met. We promised her to fill out the survey form, which I just did. I would not hesitate to trust everything about the Kruger Gate hotel!

We loved our stay at Kruger Gate. The location is fantastic and our overall experience was amazing. Our kids loved the pool and the wildlife around the hotel. The viewing deck brought us up close and personal with elephants. The facilities and food at dinner and breakfast were excellent and the hospitality were received was world class! One of my highlights was the birthday song the restaurant staff sang to me at dinner. We will definitely go back.

By far the most amazing hotel we have ever stayed in! We have just returned from a week at Kruger Gate Hotel, and no words can describe how great this hotel is. A true luxury African experience. We have never been to a hotel with more helpful, friendly staff - everyone was perfect. Every single member of staff were so polite and kind. Sarah was wonderful and helped us with anything we needed, she helped make a birthday trip truly special! All of the guides on the safaris made sure we got to see as many animals as possible and we were fortunate enough to see all of the big 5 and many more. The rooms and all facilities were spotless, and there was a wide variety of food options too. We would highly recommend this hotel and hope to return in the future.

Our stay at Krüger Gate Hotel was simply wonderful. The service was excellent from start to finish, and the entire team made us feel very welcome. We had a private dinner with our server Excellent, who was not only extremely friendly but also very professional and attentive – a true highlight of our trip. On my birthday, the staff surprised me by singing a birthday song together, which made the evening incredibly special. Highly recommended!

Everything was absolutely wonderful.
The room was spacious, tastefully decorated, and very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. The safaris we booked were simply amazing, and the guides put in great effort to spot all the animals. The organization and the overall flow were excellent. The outdoor area was really beautiful, but the best part was the food. The buffet left nothing to be desired and everything was delicious.

For my daughter’s birthday, we had a private dining experience – the service was outstanding, and Excellent made the evening truly special for us. The crew was fantastic – they sang Happy Birthday, and their voices were just incredible. It was an unforgettable stay!

Meraviglioso hotel nei pressi del gate kruger.
Noi avevamo una camera quadrupla, spaziosa così come i letti. L’hotel è perfettamente inserito nel contesto naturale. La mattina venivamo svegliati dalle frenetiche corse dei babbuini che erano presenti anche nella zona piscina: bellissimi. Lì ci siamo goduti anche dei tramonti spettacolari. Cibo ottimo e c’è tanta varietà, possibilità di assaggiare carni locali come il coccodrillo o l’antilope.
Ci siamo fermati due notti, avremmo voluto stare più tempo.

Hotel muito bem localizado - praticamente na porta do parque, com café e jantar excelentes. A piscina de frente para o mato é espetacular e o atendimento foi bem positivo.
