Crocodile Bridge Safari is one of my favorite locations in the world. Steps away from Kruger Park across the Crocodile River. You can spot hippos and listen to them snort. Many times other animals are along the river as well. Unfortunately for us the recent floods closed the bridge and the entrance to the park. This meant we had to drive to another entrance. The food is fantastic, hearty breakfast and delicious dinners are included in the price. We stayed in a delux tent cabin and it was great, also air condition. Highy recommend

Absolutely loved this place. The staff was very helpful and welcoming. Our tent had a river view and we woke up to the sounds of hyenas whooping and hippos grunting. They have a communal dinner where everyone was very friendly and we stayed up pretty pate around the fire socializing with everyone. Such a fantastic experience, we wished we would have booked more nights there.

Best Kruger Lodge Ever!! Can't wait to come back!
This place is the absolute best!! We loved our time here. It's right on the end of the park and the safaris we booked through the lodge were exceptional-we saw the big 5 every time and the guides were awesome spotters. Bruce and Ilse really make you feel at home and welcomed. We loved sharing stories by a fire every night and loved the home cooked delicious meals. When we go back to Kruger, we are 100% staying here and could not recommend it more!

Family style, firm beds
Extremely nice people. It’s very family style where you eat together. Our bed was extra firm and couldn’t sleep well. The owners were nice and tried to see if a different room would have a softer bed but we elected to leave so we could be closer to the airport. They really tried to make us comfortable, we just like soft beds.

Excellent location right next to the Park. 100 feet to the park. You can see wildlife from your room. Extremely friendly staff. Staying in a tent (with walls) in the wildness, like a camping experience.

Where else can you have a sundowner with an elephant herd and morning coffee with lions? I would definitely recommend this place to everyone! The owners have created a wonderful community that is very welcoming (even shared her curry with me!) and just outside the park but honestly, you can see so many things right from this camp! I watched hippos run down the hill to return to the water after being out all night and we had lion roars and hyena whoops to wake us up!

Lovely setting, fantastic hosts
Fantastic and lovely place, we were welcomed the second we arrived by the Bruce and Ilse who help us settled and gave us a tour of the place. They are really generous people of there time and you could see they love what they are doing. The place in itself is in gorgeous setting just over the river separating the lodge to the national park. The tent we slept in was really clean and comfortable though the bed a little on the hard side. On the next days we met other people responsible of the place like Terri and his partner, and the owners who were all as nice and welcoming as Bruce and llse. I wish I could have had more time with them ´cause they are what the definition of hospitality should be. We loved diner setting with all the host and guess together. Dont change anything

Evening gatherings with hosts and other guests were fantastic. A wonderful opportunity to talk about the day we had and what we saw as well as great conversation.Elsa made delicious complimentary salads for everyone and home made bread each evening. All you needed was your meat and drinks to have an enjoyable evening meal.The position of the lodge was perfect for viewing animals from every deck.Crocodile bridge entrance to Kruger was almost at the doorstep.1 minute drive to the park entrance .Rooms beautifully kept.Definately recommend anyone looking for a place to relax,close to Kruger and self catering. Look no further.

Our stay at Crocodile Bridge has been absolutely fantastic. The owners, Bruce and IIsl are super friendly, extremely welcoming and really make you feel at home from start to end. Even prior to arrival IIsl was on hand to email me all the relevant information we needed about the accommodation and safaris that are available to book. This place really is a stones throw from Kruger, on the edge of river at Crocodile Bridge with amazing views into Kruger National Park. We had numerous visitors during the 5 nights that we stayed here, that included crocs, buffaloes, eagles, elephants, giraffes and to top it all off a huge family of hippos which kept us entertained for the whole time we were there. The accommodation is luxury tents and the standards are superb. They are super clean, extremely comfortable with double beds and mozzie nets, air conditioning, fridge and kettle. We also had constant hot water for a nice shower before and after safaris. We loved staying in our tent, hearing the animals at night really made us feel like we were outdoors with them. The owners are great hosts on hand every day and prepare the bbq for all the guests every night. The bbq are is a great place over looking the river and is a great place to sit and chat with the other guests after your visits in the park. What makes this place probably the best accommodation in Kruger is definitely the location, friendly staff and the owners hospitality.
