Unforgettable Safari
5/5

I, Costanza and Silvia want really thank Nik for the love he transfers to us about nature, animals and the Kruger Park. It was our first Safari and it was a fantastic experience, we learned a lot and we met all the amazing inhabitants of the Kruger Park. Special and unforgettable the barbecue that Nik made for us in one of the incredible starry nights at the park. Company was absolutely great and we would like to thank also Irina for that. Thanks a lot also to Christine who worked for us and made this amazing experience happen to us. Thanks again Nik, it was a very big pleasure meeting you.

Fascinating!
5/5

A few extra happy days in my life... With Nick -- our guide, highly professional and considerate -- and three charming Italian girls -- Monia, Constanza, and Silvia -- that safari tour turned out an incredible adventure, all of us feeling safe under the care of Nick. And it was a terrific company! Thank you goes to all of you, and Christine, without her wonderful job all that would be just impossible...

The safari was great; the service was excellent.
5/5

Communicating with their office was prompt, friendly, and helpful. The safari itself was everything expected and certainly memorable. But the delivery of the services that were provided and with the in-depth knowledge and friendly personality from Clive, our guide, that made it excellent. It was the little things he put into it that made the experience a complete five star package.

Not often do businesses deliver on what they advertise ....this company did and some.!
5/5

Our friends did the finding and booking then told us how easy their website was to use , and how helpful and patient Chris was with setting up the itinerary for our 4 day Safari to Kruger from JoBurg , the value for money is excellent with fantastic organisation from the get go followed by a fantastic host/guide in Clive with his years of experience , great stories about South Africa and Kruger and his obvious love for his job .......which I guess made me a little envious , this trip had the personal touch which is missing from a lot of ' tourist trips' and we highly recommend them, great company delivering on their promise, thank you Clive and the rest of your team.

Our trip with Wildlife Safaris was fantastic and the highlight of the 3 weeks spent in South Africa.
5/5

Communications from the inquiry stage to the time we were back at the airport at JoBerg were excellent. Hoppy, our guide, was knowledgeable, fun and took great care of us. The tour in Kruger was amazing. We didn't see a leopard but we saw just about every other mammal in the park. Hoppy was also knowledgeable about birds found in Kruger which also enriched our experience in the park. I would highly recommend a trip with Wildlife Safaris.

Kruger 3 day safari

This was awesome. The guide was perfect, knew everything about everything. I am not an animal lover but I enjoyed the safari. Price was perfect and the lodging was better than I expected. Would do again in the future.

Wonderful six day adventure in Kruger National Park with Wildlife Safaris
5/5

Our initial enquiries with Wildlife Safaris were made through Bruce and he was most helpful in describing the various options available to us for a Kruger adventure. We opted for the six day/five night tour which included stays at three different lodges inside or adjacent to the Park. Payments were staged over the months ahead of our trip and we felt the payment process was straightforward and secure.
When the date arrived for our tour, we were met by our brilliant guide Simon at 7am at our Johannesburg Airport hotel. Simon drove us across country to arrive into the Park in the early afternoon. Straight away our sightings of the wonderful wildlife commenced with herds of elephants, giraffes, zebra, antelopes of multiple species and many examples of exotic birds. Simon had an encyclopaedic knowledge of all the Kruger animals and birds and he had a fantastic eye for spotting the wildlife no matter how well camouflaged they were. We spent the first two nights at Sabie River Bush Lodge adjacent to the southern part of the Park followed by one night at Satara Camp in the central part of the Park. Every day featured bush drives, some starting around dawn and more kicking off at dusk with the guide using a spotlight to find and illuminate the animals in the bush.
Our final two nights were at the Mohlabetsi Private Lodge near Hoedspruit. This was where we encountered one of the highlights of the tour when the Lodge guides tracked and found two male lions which had just taken an unfortunate zebra as their prey. The scene was quickly encircled by many hyenas which settled in for their long wait for whatever scraps might remain hours later. This up-close experience of nature in the wild was truly unforgettable.
Our experience with Wildlife Safaris was truly fantastic. All of the accommodation was great, the food was plentiful and excellent, the wildlife was spectacular, the arrangements worked out exactly as promised during the booking process. And we were truly blessed to have Simon as our driver, guide and friend over the six days, he really made the trip into the wonderful experience it turned out to be.

Barnie was the best guide. Very helpful, answered all our questions in depth. He was always there to guide us and assist us in any way.
The tour was great. We were very blessed and saw all the animals we wanted to see. All the rooms were nice, we loved the Sabie river with a view of Hippos! Also the one at Skakuza was super nice! Food was also very good.
Barnie is very professional. Very informative and patient. We have a son with Austism and he was understanding and kind.
It was an experience of a life time. We all learnt so much.

Very helpful . Information provided was excellent and gave great understanding of the tour.
5/5

We didn’t know anything about South Africa before booking so we needed a lot of guidance. We were nervous about safety aspects etc. Bruce was our first contact and he was extremely helpful in answering questions thus giving us confidence to book with the company. Every aspect of the tour ran to plan with pick up and drop being perfect.

The Safari was a good mix of experiences and was good value for money being a mix of great to good accommodation. The driver Anthony hoppy Howell was fantastic taking real care of us from start to finish.

There was confusion regarding Airports for drop offf in Kruger and this was sorted easily by the Bookings team. Overall is was a fantastic holiday , well organised with excellent detail and follow up.
