Holy moly! I was blown away by my stay at Croc Valley. For context, I’m a qualified guide myself and have therefore spent a lot of time in the bush, but I’ve never had sightings this anywhere else before (in three full board days, we had leopard cubs x3, adult leopard x2, two different lion prides on fresh kills plus numerous herds of elephants, buffalo’s and all the other usual characters!) Simon our guide was really excellent. Although he wasn’t the most chatty, his driving and knowledge was excellent and invariably for every sighting we always ended up in the best position. He also anticipated animal movements brilliantly (e.g. he went a different way to other cars after we lost visual of one leopard, and of course it reappeared exactly where he drove to and we had it to ourselves!) The staff at the hotel were lovely (shout out to Herbert and Felix especially!) and the rooms provided great value for money (I stayed in one of the budget turtle rooms). I did read a few people moaning on here, but the rooms were perfect for those on a budget and for the price of $30 a night (or $150 full board) I think it provides exceptional value! The setting right on the river near the gate is stunning and the experience I had here far surpassed anything I’ve experienced before, even lodges that are two or three times the price! Croc valley, I’ll be back!
