We enjoyed unusual game sightings like African wild cat, civet, baby genets, and chameleons along with the charismatic zebra, giraffe, buffalo,... More

Ross' knowledge of the bush added hugely to the game drives... More

We visited Elephants Drift in September 2012 for 3 days on a selfcatering basis. The unspoiled African bush with its beautifull fauna and flora were outstanding. The manager/ranger, Ross, and his staff were excellent hosts. Elephants Drift is excellent value for money.

We recently spend a few days at Elephant's Drift in the Klaserie Private Reserve. We were hosted and given guided game drives in the area by a wonderful guide who had a wealth of information on the bush, birds, not to mention game, at his fingertips! He was a charming and knowledgable host. We also had a dinner out in... More

If you want to get right away from it all, this is the place to be! Superb service and very comfortable, well appointed chalets. The staff were very friendly, nothing seemed too much to ask for and the food was both excellent and plentiful. The drive in from the main highway was lengthy but well worth the effort; views from...
