They say everything happens in life for a reason. This could no be more true when it comes to how we ended up at Impodimo. We had originally booked five nights at Kapama Karula in Kruger for our family visit to South Africa. Thanks to the cyclone in February, Kapama was mostly devastated. With the help of the wonderful folks... More

We had an overseas client to entertain and secured a last minute booking at Impodimo. We were delighted to have had the luxury of the deluxe family unit. Two bedrooms, on either side of the unit comprising the lounge, dining room, kitchen, deck and a slash pool on the lower deck. It also overlooks the main water hole. The elephants... More

Excellent end to end - from getting there to location to the fact that is open and animals are all over - (Elephants go to drink at the SWIMMING POOL :=) Service is outstanding and food VERY GOOD Game drives are fun and it is perfect for a couple of days in the bush. We saw a ton of animals... More

We had a Columbian exchange student staying with us who was desperate for a safari experience. Not wanting to have the responsibilty of potential malaria we chose to go to Madikwe and Impodimo was chosen and paid for. I then went on to tripadvisor, saw a bad review and couldnt get rooms 1,2 or 3 and so went with a... More

I'll admit that I don't have much to compare this to in terms of other game lodges, but I am a pretty well-seasoned and discerning traveler and everything about our experience at Impodimo was wonderful. The highlight was definitely the animals - Madikwe is a much smaller park than Kruger, but it is very uncrowded and we rarely saw any... More

We were in South Africa, based in Johannesburg, with plans to do a photo safari in Sabi Sands. Unfortunately the day before heading to Sabi Sands the cyclone hit Kruger. We were told that bridges had been washed out and we would not be able to get to our lodge. We scrambled and were able to get last minute accommodations... More

Our family stayed 4 nights at Impodimo in late November and had an exceptional experience. Madikwe is a private game park only about 4 hrs drive from Jo'Burg and is large and uncrowded. The lodge is as beautiful as seen in the photos - natural features and gorgeous rooms. The family suite is the pick of the rooms - two... More

The staff was exceptional and no request was to much trouble. Personal private romantic dinners and well experienced game rangers and trackers (ask for Patrick & Holiday) made our stay very special. An authentic African Safari experience in luxury. More

We stayed 2 nights in Impodimo on Sept 2010 and we loved this place. Kruger is much more known game reserve but Madikwe is the one that local people goes & suggests. We are happy that we chose Impodimo; the stuff & accomodation was very nice. We saw all Big 5 and we had a chance to watch 6 lions... More
