The hits kept coming!

We stayed 4 nights with another couple in August 2023, and Honeyguide Mantobeni Camp exceeded all of our expectations. Wesley and the entire team are very welcoming. The tented suites are very well appointed and close to the main lodge; the meals were excellent, as was the wine and the singing with the staff! As for game viewing, mind-blowing. A big shout out to Jeffrey, our guide, who made the four days so brilliant. We pretty much saw the big five on our first game drive, and the hits just kept coming on each drive as Jeffry put his knowledge and skills to work. The fact that elephants roam freely throughout the camp daily is a wonderful bonus and a great way to enjoy wildlife in between drives. We've already booked a return visit in August this year and have requested Jeffrey as our guide once again. See you in a few months.

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon in August 2022, and we can’t recommend it highly enough. For anyone looking for a thoroughly enjoyable safari experience with friendly people you needn’t look any further.

The guides and staff were all lovely and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best stay possible. The accommodation was great, and we had an immersive experience staying in their modernised tents which were safe and had everything you needed. The food was lovely, and they offered a good variety to cater to everyone’s preferences.

We were fortunate enough to see the Big 5 during our safaris and the guides always made you feel safe and knew the best spots to go to see as many animals as possible, whilst sharing informative facts and history about the animals and the environment. We were lucky enough to experience an elephant encounter in the camp one evening where a herd of 6 elephants came into the camp to drink from the watering hole (swimming pool overflow 😊). It was truly incredible and such an amazing experience.

On our final night our guide arranged a surprise romantic meal in our tent by candlelight, where we were served a 3-course meal with a bottle of wine to celebrate our honeymoon. This was totally unexpected and was the perfect end to our time at Honeyguide and something we will never forgot.

Thank you to all the staff for your hospitality and we hope to come back one day in the future!

Incredible!

I recently had the pleasure of taking a safari at the Honeyguide Ranger Camp in Limpopo with my girlfriend for her birthday. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and felt right at home. Our ranger, Dan, was an absolute gem. He was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the animals and the environment, and his enthusiasm was contagious. He made our early morning and evening game drives a truly unforgettable experience.

The game drives themselves were fantastic. We saw an abundance of wildlife and Dan's expert knowledge made the experience even more enriching. He was able to answer all of our questions and provided fascinating insights into the behavior and habits of the animals we saw.

I asked for some special requests for my GF as a surprise (romantic set up in the room with some champagne). Not only did the staff deliver, but they went above and beyond, surprising even me on our second night there with a delicious cake and a birthday song! All of the staff were amazing and all contributed to what ended up being an amazing weekend.

Overall, our time at Honeyguide Ranger Camp was an incredible experience that we will treasure for a long time. We would highly recommend this safari and ranger Dan to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable wildlife experience. Thank you for the amazing weekend, Dan and team!

The cherry on the cake !

We had the loveliest stay at this camp! The staff was super welcoming, friendly and just nice to be around. The food was delicious, with an entrée, the choice between two main courses and a dessert each time. The most special night was however when we had the barbecue around a campfire in the bush, a truly magical experience.
Furthermore, we had great game drives during which our guide Twice went above and beyond to find the animals we were hoping to see and thus had stunning sightings. One morning, we exchanged the driving safari for a walking safari with Nathan and got a whole new experience of the bush which was fascinating as well.
The rooms (tents) are beautifully furnished with everything you need (especially the heated blankets were really appreciated during the cold nights) and you can hear all kinds of animals moving and vocalising at night which, to me, is just the most beautiful thing ever. The rest of the camp is really well maintained, with a nice restaurant, pool and bar area from where we spent our free time in the afternoon watching the animals come and go. The cherry on the cake however were the elephants that came to drink at the pool on a daily basis. Of course, we had seen these pictures beforehand but we did not expect to actually see this for ourselves.. just breathtaking.
Nothing bad to say about this place at all, do not hesitate and book! You will not be disappointed. Thanks again to everyone for their work, you're doing an amazing job making this place a home for your visitors!🥰

10 out of 10 would recommend Honeyguide Ranger Camp

We just came back from a 4 day trip at Honeyguide Ranger Camp and I can honestly say it was a holiday of a lifetime. I cannot recommend this camp enough. Huge thank you to our ranger Julian who made this experience so incredible. Julian is so knowledgeable about the bush and so friendly, he went out of his way to make us feel welcome and enjoy the bush experience to it's absolute best.

The bush walk that we went on with Julian was, as expected, absolutely spectacular! We saw rhinos on foot, but not once did I feel unsafe. Julian was in complete control and knew what he was doing. The views were breathtaking as well!

The food was incredible, the staff were so friendly and the lodge and accommodations was pristine. Every morning when we came back from our gamedrive our rooms were cleaned and prepped for us and every evening after our game drive we came back to warm beds with our electric blankets being put on for us. We lived the life of luxury!

I'm sad that we had to leave, but don't worry we're already planning our next trip there in November. 15 out of 10 would recommend!!

Wonderful weekend with family and friends!


The staff went above and beyond to provide my family and our friend's families with a fantastic experience. It was our second time there and they welcomed us back with open arms.
The food was excellent, the tents are super comfortable, the guides are knowledgeable and a joy to be around.

Special thanks to B (who takes our little people not allowed in the drives to shorter/safer drives around camp providing them too with memorable experiences). Salomon with his kind, gentle and passionate way of showing the visitors the beauty of the place. Sydney, Sylvia, Rose, and all the lovely ladies cooking the fantastic meals, and also the ladies who baby set our children so we could enjoy an evening drive together with the other grown-ups.

I highly recommend the place and will go back there in a heartbeat!!

Thank you Honey Guide team for another wonderful weekend at your property.

Honeyguide Ranger Camp

Loved it! In tune with nature guided by great passionate staff!

We wish to appraise few staff members in particular:

- Dan and Mavis for our meals service, they always cared for satisfying the client and all staff were reminding clients the importance of wearing a mask and practice social distancing to keep us all safe.

- Twice as our Ranger is talented at positioning his safari car for photographers, coming closer and respecting the free movement of the animals. He is caring for the young and the old beings, and shared his passion of the wild with us providing us with great information on animals behavior.

- The cleaning and maintenance staff are amazing, fast and efficient.

South Africa at its Best 😀

The location was incredible, the privacy in the tents and no access to the internet or outside world, made it the perfect couple getaway. The service was exceptional, from the cleaning staff, to the waiters / waitresses, chefs and admin staff.

The morning and afternoon game drives were simply breathtaking each time, our game ranger was Daveson, his humour was such a treat, he went above and beyond to make sure that we had an incredible experience, we saw the big 5, plenty of buck, wildlife and many birds on all 6 game drives, as well as beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Thank you to everyone at Honeyguide Tented Safari Camp - Khoka Moya for such an unforgettable experience.

Unforgettable experience. Highly recommended

Incredible stay! Staff at Khoka Moya went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable throughout our time there. The location is more than perfect. Food was good. The game drives are an absolute highlight. Our ranger, Vestment, went above and beyond to get us the best sightings.

Big5 Adventure of a Lifetime.

Twice our ranger was excellent. Each safari trip was an adventure where we sighted the Big 5
Including rare sightings of cheetahs, vultures and many more different animals. Twice shared knowledge on every trip. The food was delicious (our specific dietary requirements were met) and the routine at the camp worked perfectly.

We had the most amazing stay at Ranger Camp for my 24th birthday in March. The rooms are beautiful and spacious with the most amazing outdoor shower. The common areas are beautiful and kept very clean and tidy, with such a lovely swimming pool to relax by while you watch possible animals stroll past. The food was delicious too.

The game viewing was great even in the rainy season, and our guide Julian was wonderful & very knowledgeable. All of the staff were very helpful and accommodating, and met all of our needs. Everyone even went the extra mile on my birthday ensuring I felt extra special, and got to see the most amazing sightings on our two game drives that day.

I cannot recommend this lodge enough, and I cannot wait to come back!

We stayed in this camp two nights during our long safari in January. It was the best and most professional managed camp / lodge, which we met during our trip. The cuisine served in this place was one of the best, which I met in Africa. Many thanks to camp manager Raymond and his team – keep your excellent service in for future
