Mopani camp is pleasant with a great view over the dam from some bungalows and from the restaurant. The area is also good for leopard and lion sightings with the odd cheetah. The hospitality services manager, Garth Holt, is great - he is always smiling and waving to guests and offering his advice on where to see animals! More

We had a rondawel overlooking the dam and it was lovely sitting watching birds in the trees. There was a very large croc floating about and a fish eagle was calling and sitting on a dead tree. The rondawel was not in a circle but more private with dry ,high grass surrounding it. It gave me the eebie-jeebies as I... More

The Mopani Rest Camp is relatively modern compared to some of the other, older camps in the Kruger Park. It is a very good location for bird watching, as it is close to two bird hides and waterholes. The camp itself has an excellent swimming pool and the restaurant facilities are decent, however, the bar area overlooking the Pioneer Dam... More

We spent 4 nights at the Mopani Rest Camp in December 2011. The accomodation is clean and neat, and, serviced daily. We paid a little extra for the room with a view but it was worth it. The staff are friendly, helpful and very accomodating. The rest camp has a beautiful pool and a terrace which overlooks the pioneer dam.... More

The camp is well appointed with rooms that have all the amenities required for a comfortable stay for a few nights. As we were there in winter the game spotting was a bit more infrequent but the birding was great. The view onto the dam from the deck is arguably the one of the best in the whole park .... More

We stayed 2 nights at Mopani Rest Camp in August 2011. We were not expecting to see a great deal of game as the guide books do not recommend this part of the park in winter. While there was less game spotting than in the south, we saw lots of great game and enjoyed our stay at Mopani. It was... More

The rooms at Mopani have everything you would expect in a lodge or motel room. Kitchen, barbecue, heating/cooling, comfortable beds, a large sitting room and outdoor eating area. The rooms are serviced and cleaned daily, including all the washing up done for you. We went to the restaurant the night we arrrived, and we were surprised we were the only... More

We stayed there just before the school holidays. It was great. Very quiet and peaceful. The sites were great. The communal kitchen and bathrooms were very clean and a pleasure to make use of them. We saw so much game each day in close vicinity of the camp, with a resident pack of wild dog that we saw each evening... More

Mopani is one of the better rest camps in the Kruger National Park. We had bungalow 54 which is quite near the shop/restaurant, but that makes no difference other than a shorter walking distance. People in the Kruger tend to understand the stated and unstated rules, and that is that people are there to enjoy the sounds of the african... More
