EXCELLENT Based on 1209 reviews davidjdarlington2025-08-21Verified Experience of a lifetime Our stay at Shepherds Tree Game Lodge was, without a doubt, a perfect 11/10. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by every aspect of this incredible lodge. The accommodation is simply breathtaking. Our suite was a true sanctuary, with luxurious furnishings, a stunning view, and every comfort we could possibly need. It was the perfect place to relax between game drives and truly immerse ourselves in the peaceful bush environment. The food was a first-class experience in itself. Each meal was a culinary masterpiece, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The chefs went above and beyond to cater to our every need, and dining in such a spectacular setting made every meal feel special. However, the real highlight of our trip was our guide. Their knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm were infectious. Thanks to their expertise, we were incredibly lucky to see all of the Big Five! Beyond the sightings, we learned so much about the animals' habitats and behaviors. Our guide's ability to share this knowledge in such an engaging way made the experience so much more meaningful. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect safari. Shepherds Tree Game Lodge truly exceeded our expectations, and we are already dreaming of our next visit. If you want a safari experience that is second to none, look no further. Wildehouse2025-08-20Verified Perfect Safari stay We had an amazing time here, from the twice daily safaris to the excellent cuisine, lodges and every helpful staff. 906lisawood2025-08-19Verified AMAZING EXPERIENCE From our arrival to our departure we were treated like royalty. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented with a wide variety to choose from. Our game driver was very informative and did his best to ensure we saw so many animals. The rooms were really luxurious and comfortable. Absolutely stunning. edithkeofitlhetse2025-08-17Verified A heavenly escape From the moment I got outside my car , I was really taken care of. The warm welcome by all the staff at the entrance was spectacular. The trip was to centre me from the hustle and bustle and it did just that. The Lodge pays extra attention to detail on all aspects! The food deserves a loud mention as it was spectacular in all occasions! The presentation and chef’s visits at mealtimes was extra special. The game drive was exceptional as well. The knowledge and engagement with the game driver was outstanding! The last location for our pit stop in the bush was absolutely breathtaking! Thank you for making my last breakfast happen even though it was outside of breakfast times, that I am grateful for. You have my heart Tessa C2025-08-08Verified Exceptional accomodations in a breathtaking National Park Exceptional accomodations and culinary experience!

An OVERALL WOW WOW WOW Experience... MarjorieCampbell2025-07-29Verified The most exciting experience ever. From the moment we arrived to when we left it was an amazing break. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and we were upgraded to the best suite of rooms with our own pool was unbelievable. The food was superb and so were the staff. Three out of six drives we had the truck to ourselves as the other people didn’t come. Martin our ranger was brilliant and made our safari so interesting and we managed to see four out of the big five, the one missing was the leopard. We were very very lucky to see a male lion, two females and three cubs after a kill as apparently there are only thirty one tagged lions in the reserve. Everything was spot on even down to blankets and hot water bottles for morning and late afternoon drives, as it can get quite cold as we found out when it was -1 and ground frost in the mornings. The ranger had piping hot chocolate, coffee, tea and snacks mid way through the drive for a break as well as a proper toilets in the middle of nowhere. Layers of clothes are a must. It was a memorable holiday, which we will treasure for years to come. line f2025-07-29Verified As good as it gets! Fantastic place❤️ Mest fantastiske sted vi har været! De sødeste medarbejdere, bedste service, lækre omgivelser og bedste safari. Havde 3 dage med Your highness/Johannes, som bare var den bedste guide. Vi så The Big five og en masse andre dyr.

The hotel is better than it seems on internet darrenveth2025-07-21Verified Exceptional service Hey everyone, I just wanted to take a moment to say a big thank you to some amazing people. Prenisha, the lodge manager, your excellent customer service and professionalism really stood out. Dineo and Kokesto in the dining hall area, you both made the experience enjoyable. Gomolemo at reception, your exceptional service didn’t go unnoticed, and to the entire front reception team, thank you as well. Piet, the game ranger, you gave us an incredible experience with your knowledge of wildlife and nature — you’re truly an amazing person and great ranger. Last but not least, Katlego at the quads, your friendly and grateful attitude made everything even better. Thanks again to all of you! From Darren Naidoo and Sashni Moodley
