What a spectacular place!!! Visited with my friend for a few days. It was her first time in South Africa. Experience left such a beautiful impression of our beautiful country and its people❤️❤️❤️ The place and staff were AMAZING!!! So friendly, helpful, cheerful - always a pleasure to be around. The food and drinks provided were delicious and spectacular. Our room was always clean, made up and fully stocked with drinks and snacks. The game drives were informative and spectacular - phenomenal drivers. Transportation from and to the airport was timely and fantastic! Definitely recommend staying here!!! Special thanks to Victor, Benedict, Reyneke*, Sam, Jane, Hamilton, Imagine, Marita, S’fiso, and the list goes on😁😁😁 My friends and I are already planning our next visit back!!!

Omg what an absolutely amazing experience at Kruger Shalati. My daughter and I stayed for 4 nights. From start to finish, I'd rate my trip over 5 stars. From the accommodation to the staff, to the food and the Game drive were all magnificent. We were treated like royalty. Special thank you to Sam, Venola, Gift, Becki and Siswe you guys are super stars and you all get 10 stars from us!! Thank you for this unforgettable trip!! Always in our hearts 💕

Our stay at Shalati was fabulous! It offers everything a traveller could expect and more. What a magnificent setting - with the train on the bridge over the Sabie River where you could watch the sun rise, and gaze at the birds flying overhead and the game wandering along the banks or through the water. Then there are the morning and afternoon game drives. Our guide, Tebogu, has eagle eyes, making sure we never missed a thing and happily shared his depth of knowledge about the bush with us. We also loved that every member of staff had a smile on their face, were friendly and always ready to be of assistance. We felt like they were there just for us, even though there were many other guests staying there too. The accommodation on the train is delightful with each carriage room beautifully appointed and meticulously maintained. The food on offer was also impressive, not only catering to almost every dietary need with a large selection of options but everything was delicious. Perhaps though what we loved most is the genuine sense of tranquillity and peace at Shalati, a quality not easy to find in the world and certainly not one that can be contrived or engineered.
