The stay was excellent with the elephant walk being the high-light.
Buffelsdrift lost one star due to WiFi and internet access not working.

It was awsome, our booking included an Elephant experience, we enjoyed it big time, it's a must do!
The restaurant has a deck under the stars and we had fantastic food. The tented luxurious units are spacious and have good views. 👍
Recent rains fell in this area and it turned beautifully green. Totally new life and lots of new births from most of the game add to the numbers.

We had a good time staying in Buffelsdrift - booked a two night stay incl. Night and Day Safari.
The Safari was great - well done and with great Rangers.

Apparently the food was not good at all as well as the service in the restaurant due to a lack of manpower.

Overall - yea would def do it again but might consider to have dinner outside!
