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.

We returned to Kruger Gate Hotel as a family (two adults, two children) for seven nights to celebrate two birthdays. Our second visit.

This is still our family favourite holiday location, even more so after a second visit.

I cannot imagine a much better place for a family holiday, couples getaway, or a solo traveller who wants to experience the highest quality and stress-free safari.

Some hopefully helpful details:

Location - directly on the edge of one of the best safari locations on earth, southern Kruger. You will see many of the \'big five\' from the hotel\'s pool area.

Staff/Atmosphere - everyone here is incredibly kind, helpful, and genuinely wants to make your stay as special as possible.

Safari - you MUST book game drives whilst you are here. We had four early morning private safaris, booked through the hotel, and one night safari booked directly with Kruger Park (they collect you from the Hotel).

Rooms - the rooms have recently been renovated and are very clean and comfortable. We had a family room which worked perfectly for four of us.

Food and drink - buffet breakfast and dinner are included in the room rate, both are excellent with lots of variety - South African themed with international alternatives too. Lunch and drinks are a la carte and are also excellent.

Value for money - just right. Everything here is high quality, but you can also enjoy yourself properly without having to worry too much about your bill at check out!

Cleanliness - perfect.

Noise level - you\'re surrounded by wildlife, so it\'s never silent (you wouldn\'t want it to be!), but it is definitely a very relaxing place to stay.

Some special mentions for some staff members:
 
EDGAR - we have been on safari many times, Edgar is the best guide we have ever experienced. We\'ve now had seven game drives with Edgar and every one has been spectacular. Ask for him when booking your safari.

MISHECK and ZENDA - nothing is too much trouble and they are lovely company if you want to learn more about life in this beautiful part of the world whilst enjoying some delicious poolside lunch or post-safari cocktails.

ALICK and NEO - wonderful dinner hosts in the open-air restaurant.

Overall, an amazing holiday destination.

Dit hotel is fantastisch qua ligging net aan de rand van het Krugerpark. De olifanten, buffels, zwijnen,.. komen tot aan de rand van het zwembad. Qua sfeer en gezelligheid is dit top! Vriendelijke mensen, uitstekende bediening. Een aanrader!
