Mbizi Bush Lodge

We visited Mbizi at the end of our stay for two nights. Warm and friendly staff, great game viewing and perfect place to relax after two weeks in the bush. I wouldn't want to drive my car round the roads but Bjorn provided great game drives morning and evening with some spotlighting on the way back.

Perfekte Unterkunft um Tiere zu beobachten. Die Tiere kommen ganz nah, die Elefanten trinken aus dem Swimmingpool. Abends kann man nicht alleine vom Haupthaus zu den Zimmern da es keine Zäune o.ä. gibt und die Löwen, Elefanten und Leoparden einem jederzeit begegnen kann.

We spent 4 days in this camp with unfenced lodge. The rooms had AC which was needed, even though outside was cold. Nice room, shower, safe and a decent pool with elephant visiting daily to drink. That was the highlight. Game drives started at 4:30 for 2 1./2 hours which was really late since it got dark at 5:15 so most of it was in the dark and we started skipping the afternoon drives for that reason. Nothing much is seen after dark in my opinion but some like it. Winter schedules should go to 3:30 like at the other lodges but they did not switch over yet at the end of May. We took a full day trip to Kruger. Other rave about it but we found it lacking. It was 14 hours long with little sightings & lots of driving. Not many other cars either, and other than elephants & buffalo, we found nothing more than at the lodge which would have been a lot easier. But maybe it was an off day since others highly recommend the trip. Food was nice, we were hoping for Indian dishes as shown in the photos but we instead had fusions of different countries. It was sometimes good but sometimes not to our liking. Beet pie, not for us for example. esspresson/cappuccino machine available anytime was nice. The highlight was elephants visiting the pool or running through the camp several times daily! It was amazing & you got very close the animals. Price was also a lot lower & lunch & drives were not included but extra. So if you wanted to skip lunch or a game drive you didnt pay. But they were both really low priced. So the stay was very nice & we would go again. Love the elephant visits to the pool & watering hole & around our rooms in the morning close by. Drives were decent but not a real high animal density in the area, but we did see lion & lots of elephant.

Experiência fantástica lugar agradável e oferece excelentes passeios. No dia que chegamos fizemos um Safári (Game) ao entardecer (17:30) em um dos carros do Lodge, vimos animais (Zebras, girafas, javali …). no dia da saída fizemos um passeio matutino 5:30 horas, foi esplêndido , pois conseguimos ver os leões, é indiscritível a sensação de ficar bem perto deles. O café da manhã e a Jantar foram de muito bom gosto, a comida é maravilhosa. Ficamos com muita saudades! Anfitriões e funcionários excelentes tem muito cuidado com os hóspedes principalmente a segurança. Renato e Edmara

Where to even begin. We had the best few days at Mbizi. Bjorn and family were so welcoming, accommodating and knowledgeable. The accommodation is beautifully finished, the food is honestly amazing, the pool and the view are both great for some downtime. The game drives were great, we saw so many animals including a leopard and the off roading style was so fun. The value for money at this place is honestly exceptional - would 100% recommend to everyone and will definitely be back! Thanks for a great and relaxing stay guys!

Our day's at Mbizi bush lodge where the best we had ever experienced. The staff was great, lodge amazing and the food was more than perfect with great wine's! We couldn't have asked for anything else. Already feeling homesick to this place. Hopefully we will return some day. We made some beautiful memories! Thankyou Bjorn & Divya, you are lovely. Kind regards, Athina & Kostas
