Very average
Very average and therefore overpriced. Fine for a one night stay but there are also nicer options which cost the same or are cheaper. Dining facilities lack any charm. Train tracks very close and you can hear the trains. Tents located very close to each other as well. Staff was friendly and helpful.

This camp is a great stay. People mention parking and the train and the noise from neighboring tents … this is just a small inconvenience for the price of the property and location of it within the national park fence perimeter- but outside the gate where the conservation fee needs to be paid. International cost is $30 per person and doesn’t matter when you enter and is open 6a-6p. We stayed in tents 9, 17,18,19 & 75. Our first 4 face the park so you will see animals pass in front of your door / porch. Approx half the tents face the park and the other half face the interior of the camp. The trains move slowly maybe twice a day past the camp area - it this is outside the fenced park. Some guests are quiet and some louder … so you may or may not hear them next to you. Parking is at the bottom of 2 paths up to the tents … there is an area to drop bags off if you have a tent ar the farthest away area of the reception. There are golf carts so you can ask for help getting your bags far also I have seen. My family all agree we would return ! Pool looks nice / but not warm enough to use while here. The watering hole in the park is fun to watch - hippos always has been there. Elephants come and go almost daily. Cute bar with reasonable prices. Bartenders have always been friendly. Buffets always good. Lunch is alacart & typical in the park Friday night was outside with local entertainment. Enjoy !

Good Camp - Needs some polish
Nkambeni Safari Camp has the makings of good place to stay. The positives are good food and management that are willing to help. Negatives are tents very close to each other and as such can be noisy at night. I would think the management need to consider a noise curfew after 22h00. The train passing by is also noisy, but there is not much that can be done about that. Parking is by reception and it is a hike to get to your tent. Porters are available but during our stay they were either too busy or nowhere to be found. I really suggest that management get a few golf carts to assist guest with their luggage. The restaurant area is great and food is generally good. The restaurant staff was a hit and miss affair. Some were great and some terrible to the point where they ignore you. This being a high occupancy camp, more than 150 tents, it seemed that restaurant staff were overwhelmed at times. Management should consider training to sharpen up this side of things. Reception and security staff were fantastic. On site amenities are limited, but then I think this more a stop over for those wanting to explore Kruger. Value for money in considering what other lodges charge in the area. With a few tweaks it can be great camp to stay at. Management was very willing and great in addressing our concerns and questions. Keep this up please.

CONVENIENT BUDGET ACCOMMODATION
The camp is located just inside Numbi gate: from the lodge to the main gate is a short 3km drive. The cabins are compact, clean and comfortable and the staff very friendly. The food was very tasty and there was enough variety. There is very limited wifi allocation to be used in the main building only, but with the camp being so spread out, this is understandable. The tents are about 10 metres apart but it is possible to hear people snoring in the adjacent tent and the railway track is closeby too so this might be an issue for light sleepers. We did not find it onerous to complete the forms every day upon entry into the park. Given the time of year, the animals were very scarce but we had rare and magnificent sightings every day we went out. We would definitely return and recommend Nkambeni to others.

Dear Doreen Thank you for your review and for choosing Nkambeni Safari Camp. I will be sure to let our staff how much of an impact they made on your experience. I do apologize for the limited WiFi. We are going to upgrade it very soon so that the entire camp will be covered with unlimited access. I am looking forward to having you stay at Nkambeni again. Warm Regards Sean Ward General Manager

Package holiday hotel- good overall, but not recommended for individual travelers. Loud groups take over the restaurant and amenities. Also close to railway line: train spotters will be delighted, but less so the traveler looking to get away from it all. I’d give it a 6 rating.

No bush experience!!
This place only cater for tour groups, and they also say so! If you think you going to listen to lion, jackals and hiena at night DON'T go there. All you hear is tour groups partying till midnight, the tent next to yours aircon and trains passing by Would not recommend for self drive bush lovers Only positive is the friendly staff!!

Amazing stay
The camp is situated next to a watering hole and has amazing views. Both the dinner and breakfast buffets were absolutely amazing. Only drawback is that although the camp is situated within the Kruger Park, it is only through the first gate and not the main gate at Numbi. We wanted to go into Kruger Park for an early morning drive, but Nkambeni's gates only open at 06h00. When we arrived at Numbi gate the queue of cars was very long, whereafter I stood in a queue for 30 minutes in order to purchase a day pass (the other day visitors with pre-booked day passes also took forever to enter). It may be practical for Nkambeni to arrange day passes for its visitors as this really is the only negative and inconvenience and will really add to an already wonderful experience.

Cozy tents
The camp was absolutely lovely to stay. We were here for 2 nights and everything was great. Dinner our second night was awesome. It was outside with a big fire and BBQ. Daphanie at the gate was such a joy to see everyday, so cheerful. The only downfall is that obviously tents are not soundproof and most of the people staying are going on early morning safari tours and you will hear them all if you're planning on sleeping in. Also the cleaning ladies are very loud... They shout in conversation to each other from the tents at 6:30am... It was very unfortunate to try and sleep through such loud chatter. Other than that the location is great and the tents are very comfortable and cozy.

Nkambeni is really good value for money. Tents are comfortable with Aircons. The private outdoor showers are wonderful. The food is good but pretty much the same every night. Breakfast spread is good. We had a wonderful full day game drive. Was a fantastic experience. Will definitely visit Nkambeni again and will recommend to all my friends. Staff friendly and very helpful.

Séjour très agréable dans ce lodge confortable bien intégré au décor naturel à l'intérieur du parc Kruger : bungalows/tentes avec salle d'eau plus douche extérieure, disséminés dans un vaste camp protégé par une clôture électrifiée,avec vue sur une mare occupée par 5 hippopotames ; accueil chaleureux et compétent, buffets variés et généreux, service attentif. Sortie safari chaque jour, à des horaires variés, avec des guides expérimentés,qui font tout leur possible pour donner à voir le maximum d'animaux dans leur environnement ; un régal pour petits et grands.

estupenda comida (cena y desayuno), servicio top.
Somos una familia de dos adultos y dos niños de 9 años. Pasamos 3 noches en Septiembre en este Restcamp. Se trata de un camp, con tiendas de campaña que disponen de todos los servicios, buenas camas, buena ducha, incluso una en el exterior, agua caliente y perfecto funcionamiento, lavabo, aire acondicionado...hasta tetera eléctrica. Integradas en el entorno, disfrutas de lujo y puedes oir los sonidos de la savana por la noche que no tiene precio. Un tema muy importante es que el camp, se encuentra dentro del recinto del P N Kruguer, pero no es gestionado por SAN PARKS. La entrada Numbi se encuentra a 600 metros del camp. El servicio es excelente y la comida del desayuno y la cena es muy buena. La cena te la sirven tipo bufet en el exterior alrededor del fuego y en un ambiente muy bonito. Ni un mosquito.En resumen, totalmente recomendable y excelente relación calidad precio.

Cheap and Cheerful
If you go to Nkambeni expecting the 5 star luxury you may find at other private concessions in Kruger you are in for disappointment. This lodge provides exactly "what it says on the tin" - a three star lodge. The accommodation is possibly a smidge nicer than the Kruger facilities for not much more - and the fact that breakfast and dinner were included was an extra bonus. The tents were okay - but the beds were not very comfy. Also as the tents are so close together you can hear people in the tents next door. The food was buffet fair. Okay - if a bit boring.

Ideal for those on a budget
We spent 6 nights at Nkambeni, it's good place to stay if wanting to explore the Kruger on a budget. The tent lodge is good size and comfortable with air con. If you are a light sleeper make sure you have ear plugs and you won't be bothered by noises,(there is a railway line nearby, sometimes a train goes by in the early hours of the morning). The dinning room over looks the Kruger,nice to watch sun rise/set also a hippo pool on other side of fence where you can view hippos and an other animal that comes near the water hole. Pretoriuskop camp(inside kruger) is the nearest petrol station for those who are doing self-drive. We did do one game drive, the sundowner, we stopped half way into the drive for drink and snacks to watch sunset. The driver was knowledgeable and friendly which made the experience more enjoyable.

Great location
A great location right on the Kruger Park, making it possible to relax by the pool while looking at the Park on the other side of the river. Lovely tented camps with comfy beds and a private outdoor shower. Was a bit noisy at one stage night - I heard what sounded like helicopters overhead, this might have been a once off (maybe an anti-poaching unit at work?) The management should have been stricter on international guests who smoked right by our table while we were eating, the smoking area and policy should be clearly communicated to guests when they arrive so that other guests dont have to get involved in an unpleasant confrontation. I did not appreciate people smoking near my son. the hotel would have got 5 stars from me if this hadn't happened. A game ranger called Christopher was really sweet and chatted to us about the Park and animals - very informative and friendly.
