Staff
"It took us 10 years to go back to the kruger and we loved it. The children can't waite to go back, but it has been a long time since we have experienced so many rude, unhelpful and unwilling people that work at a place.
It is shocking to think that they work with so many tourist and get away with being like that. I hope that something can be done to improve this."

Shingwedzi Restcamp
"Is clean and we were warmly welcomed by friendly staff and assistants. My only thought might be adding an extra ablution block at the camping site, as there seemed to be not enough facilities to accommodate all the people it is also a distance to the nearest ablution block when camping near the swimming pool. There are toilets by the pool but the pool is locked after 9pm and thus if one has to get up during the night it’s a long walk with the torch to the nearest facility."
- Kent Williamson (South Africa)

Great experience
"We were fortunate to land among elephants and seeing the Buffalos going up the river banks of the Shingwedzi. An Elephant Bull also chased us. This was amazing but scary."

"Camp layout perfect, weather absolutely fantastic. The animals I always look for (wild dog, sable, roan, cheetah, leopard) hiding once again. Anytime, anywhere in Kruger is always the best."

"Our whole family went to Shingwedzi camp for our annual get-together and as always we enjoyed every moment. The staff at Shingwedzi itself also put in great effort to make sure that we're all next to each other as we all booked seperate. What a nice place to take a break!"

"Again, very little game, no masses of common herbivores. The cottage very worn out, needs an updating. The offer and quality of the restaurant poor: what you get served does simply not match with the tittle on the menu."
- Vicente Alvarez

That was very nice
"We were happy with the camp and the service received at camp. We went on night drive and saw Leopard and Hyena. Bishop (the guide) was excellent on the drive with all sorts of info on the animals. We wanted to do breakfast at Babalala and there was no gas available. This was the only negative we encountered. Overall very nice and we would do it again."
- George Stoop (RSA)

Too quite and a lonely road without a lot of animals
"Well it was good to see a lot of elephants and giraffes at least. It was a good camp to stay in."

Shingwedzi Camp gives excellent service
"On our arrival, 2 people were immediately on hand to assist us. They were friendly & considerate, giving us ice-cold water to drink - it was scorching hot ! We were given the keys to chalet A13, but we couldn't get the aircon to work & the same friendly assistants quickly rectified the problem. We also experienced the shop assistants to be friendly. The chalet was neat & clean. We really stayed in comfort ! And... there were lion making a noise all evening...quite far off in the distance, but nevertheless special....."
