We scheduled a transfer service from Johannesburg airport for 4 hours to Nelspruit then another 2 hours from Nelspruit to La Kruger. We wanted to experience the countryside along the transfer. Be warned, it’s just roads and fields not towns and cities, so the drive was rather boring. Upon arrival, the lodge was very quaint. The rooms were decently sized but nicely decorated. Impala’s could be seen on the premises, and they funnily referred to as “McDonald’s “ as there are so many of them in and around Kruger. Breakfast and dinner were included in our stay. Breakfast was made to order eggs, bacon, sausages, hash browns and toast. They also had a cold breakfast station available. The dinner menu was a set 3 course meal which changed daily and quite delicious. During dinner, the music played is big band style such as Moonlight Sonata, and such. It was like the scenes in the Golden Girls when they went dancing. It makes for a quiet atmosphere and rather stuffy formal dinner setting. My one suggestion, to change up the music every now and then to create a more mingling feel while dining. The lodge was about a 25 minute drive to Kruger National Park which was very fine with us. We did enjoy the stay. When not on safari, it was very relaxing and I would consider staying again. Special shout out to Given, Laura and Sabelo for always having a smile on their faces and taking interest in our day’s activities and being above and beyond accommodating. They especially made our time at La Kruger Lodge very enjoyable.
