My husband and I began our honeymoon in Mauritius and then headed to Kruger for 3 nights staying at Jock Safari Lodge. The transfer from the airport is a bit long, but for about 1 hour you're driving through the park, so be on the lookout for animals! We arrived just after the afternoon drive left (it goes out at... more

We stayed at the Jock Safari Lodge as part of our multicentre honeymoon. When we arrived we were greeted with cold drink and a friendly smile which we were most grateful for after a 2 and a half hour drive from the airport. We were then shown to our rooms which were very nice with a big kingsize four poster... more

Jock Safari Lodge is an absolutely beautiful place to stay in. We were there for 3 nights on our honeymoon in June 2008 and we loved it. The food and all the staff were great. We felt as if all we did was eat and sleep you were being that well fed. The game drives were excellent very very cold... more

We stayed at Jock Safari for 3 nights as part of our honeymoon. Upon arrival we were met with such a great welcome with drinks and friendly chat! The accommodation met our expectations and was always cleaned spotlessly and efficiently. It was as if the fairies had been around! The rooms have everything you could need, but remember to keep... more

As part of our multi stop (Cape Town, The Kruger & The Seychelles) honeymoon, we stayed for 3 days and 3 nights at Jocks. To say it was the highlight would be an understatement. From the accommodation, to the staff everything about Jocks is amazing. Even getting there from Joburg is an adventure, as you travel from the most laid... more

It was our third visit to Jock and it was even better than the first time, as it was just like coming home. To be received with open arms and big hugs from many of the staff who could remember us from our first and second stay was a fantastic feeling. The lodge is beautiful and the staff is very... more

First impressions is always important and I think that was our a led down. We arrived at Little Jock earlier than check in time but we did phone the lodge to advise. When we arrived there was nobody at reception, we could hear voices in the kitchen but nobody came out. After about 10min we saw someone in the back... more

We stayed at Jock & were far from impressed. We were picked up from the aistrip by a surly ranger (not offered any refreshment) the drive to Jock was done in silence but our welcome when we got there was pleasant enough. Our suite was shabby, hot water could be sporadic, the roof leaked, the toilet had a very unpleasant... more

My husband and I got married at Jock Safari Lodge on May 28th 2008. The whole stay from start to finish was absolutely wonderful and we can't wait to return for out 1st wedding anniversary! We booked 5 rooms for 1 night for us and our families, each of the rooms was beautifully appointed and the luxury and attention to... more

Let me be clear.......if you think Safari and the film Hatari in the same breathe, then maybe Kruger is not for you. Speeding across the veldt in an open jeep chasing Rhinos won't be your daily activity. However, if you like dining well, in comfortable, air conditioned rooms and being treated like - well a king (but don't tell the... more
