Four of us stayed at Nkorho for 4 nights.(Sat. 5th.to Wed. 9th.May) This was our second visit having stayed 2 years before. We were as pleased with this stay as previously and would have no hesitation in recommending the lodge. Because the word "bush camp" is used, we had geared ourselves the first time to expect basic accomodation but we... More

My husband and I chose to stay at a private game reserve and Nkorho was one of the best values in the Sabi Sands region. They only have 6 chalets so it's very private. The rooms were fairly nice considering you're in the Africa bush. The food was just okay, but the chef really makes an effort to accommodate any... More

I spent a lot of time researching all the options in Sabi Sands reserve, a private game reserve bordering Kruger Park, that is highly rated. All the lodges are expensive, but Nkorho for us offered the best "value", we were not disappointed. We were four in our party, including our two boys ages 12 and 15 yrs. The booking process... More

As there are a lot of reviews already, I will keep it to the point: - this lodge is more of a couples quiet type, which was perfect for us (honeymoon) - the honeymoon suite was unbelievable (see pics), a part from the rest of the houses and extremely quiet - food was good but as the other lodge (Elephant...

As part of our South Africa trip last year we stayed at Nkorho for two nights. We chose this lodge as it is one of the more affordable places in Sabi Sands and also fairly small. We were not disappointed. The rooms are very nice including and outdoor shower, which I loved! The main building is beautifully set directly across... More

We ended a 10 day, multi-lodge safari with 3 days at Nkorho Bush Lodge. It DOES take awhile to get there; however... definitely worth it! The lodge is in laid out nicely, with individual rooms surrounding the main lodge and the watering hole, where you can watch the animals grazing and drinking, while we did the same at the bar...

Back at Nkorho with guests at the end of an unforgettable tour... alas.... no game drive for me today because the lodge is full and there is no place for the guide on the two game drive vehicles... no surprise, considering the unbeatable value that this lodge offers! It is situated in the Northern sector of the Sabi Sand, with... More

This was my first visit and I was really impressed. I would definately recommend Nkorho and go back again. The location is beautiful, the staff and rangers/trackers are great - friendly and knowledgable. The food is very good and the excellent game viewing meant I could see the big 5 as well as others. There is space to relax and... More

This was our second time visiting Nkorho and once again we had a fantastic stay! Nkorho is a beautiful place to stay and as we looked out from a sun lounger at the water hole outside the fence we were all wishing we could have stayed for a lot longer! Easily the best thing about our stay was the game... More
