Absolutely fantastic experience and feel so privileged to have had the experience
We arrived to beautiful weather, many friends told me it could be cold at this time of year, but it was cool on the early game drive,but soon warmed up. Kruger was a fantastic experience and cannot explain how privileged we feel to have seen the big 5!
Our guides were fantastic and knew the park so well. Kruger is twice the size of Wales in the uk.
Dress with layers, like an onion and you'll do fine in kruger. There are blankets on the Jeep to keep you warm.

we enjoyed our stay by going above and beyond their duties. South Africa is a beautiful place, full of culture and beauty that everyone should experience at least once.

Where the Wild Things Still Are
My wife and I had an excellent safari experience, with knowledgable guides, nice accomodations, and good food. We will never forget the experience of being in the bush and seeing all the creatures we have dreamed of. Sadly, we fear that wildlife is in danger of disappearing and hope that all steps will be taken to preserve it.

S. Africa for Animal tour, a feast for the senses.
The weather was great, a relatively mild winter..only needed to bundle up in the early morning/late evening. The guides were fully committed to our seeing all that was possible. The food on the whole was adequate, but limited.Transport was well done, though it is as well to note that travelling from Jo'berg to Kruger takes a half day in one direction, & a full day in the other, so book something that will give you adequate time in the park. Having only two passengers on the tour helped to ensure that we missed nothing. The real highlight was seeing the "Big Five" on two consecutive

In every park you can find different wonderful landscape and attraction. Big five, smallfive, incredible vegetation and flowers. Everypark and reserve is well manteined with all facilities. You can drive almost everywhere and do night safariwith good guides.

instead. That's how you can really support the people and the country. And don't forget to enjoy! :-)Since this was my first safari experience and I had the great fortune of staying at Tintswalo, Idube, and Lukimbi; three very different lodges. I fell in love with game reserves and photographing animals. I loved being able to interact with various cultures, just learning basic greetings and getting to use them. Even down to the various drivers who took me from lodge to lodge and to the airport: so many unique people who were easily willing to share their knowledge and pride in South Africa. It just kept getting better! And I would like to add that the admin staff were all very professional and helpful in securing last minute transportation. Many more good things to say.....fabulous experience.

I believe it is great depending on where you go but Pilanesberg Game Reserve definitely deserves 5 stars for all of those criteria. I am pretty sure the other Game Reserve will also be just as amazing. I live with my best friend who is a South African and all he has described to me has been accurate during my visit there therefore I would definitely go back some day to visit more of South Africa.

South Africa was just beautiful -- the landscape itself, not just the animals.
