A great safari with Shoes
5/5

Everything was great! Shoes is a very friendly man with a lot of experience. He knew a lot about the wildlife and shared it with us. We also laughed a lot and had a great day. I would highly recommend him and the other crew.

Fantastic!!
5/5

Better than expected! Thamia was really helpful, explained everything through e-mail before purchasing, and Shoes was an awesome guide, explained so much about the local culture and animal behavior! Really well organized and everything explained beforehand, always asking what we prefer. Vehicle was really clean and top quality, really confortable! Passing through the days we could notice that he knew everybody and would be friendly with anyone who talk to him. With the info that he had we could find some awesome animals and have a great experience! Definetly recommend! Also, there are some other services that the lodges provide, just ask him or thamia on email such as night/morning drive, bush walk, etc.

Knowledgeable, polite, fun, personable. Couldn't ask for more. Initialy a guide now a friend.
5/5

SHOES was great from the get go. Very courteous and punctual. When he helped us onto the truck I was initially impressed with the quality of the vehicle. Top notch. Upon seeing other tours in the park they were envious of us. Leg room was good, it was clean comfortable. He accomedated us stopping before entering park for food and drinks. Upon entering the park everyone yelled his name and waved they knew him. As we toured he stopped and shared his knowledge of animals, people and life in Africa. We saw the big 5, every thing we wanted to see and what we didn't know we wanted to see. He cooked, we laughed. We are going back with him in a few years. More services are offered then posted please ask him.

Shoes is the man, extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife/environment, organised and great fun!
5/5

We had the catered camping option at Satara which would suit anyone with some camping experience and familiarity using shared park facilities like toilet and shower blocks. The camp set up and catering was excellent considering the location and the team very organised and responsive/adaptive to our requirements. We were out the gate at 6am every morning, and with Satara being pretty much in the middle of the park, I felt this provided greater early morning wildlife opportunities than tours coming in from lodges outside the park. Our guide was Shoes (owner) who was seriously terrific and seemingly without peer amongst the guides from other companies. He has tertiary qualifications in ecology and tourism and extensive experience as a guide over many years. If you want to find and identify animals and feel safe, Shoes is your man...he can locate and identify species that are not in the book and is extremely safety conscious as evidenced by the real-time advice he provided to self-drive tourists and even other tour guides when he identified them undertaking risky behaviours (like getting out of vehicles...)!

I would totally recommend Khalanga Safaris for the experience, service and value they provided with the tents actually having proper beds, rather than the camp stretchers I was expecting! Get your mates/friends together and sign up I reckon...you'll have a blast!

Beyond all expectations
5/5

What amazing hosts! All communications with Shoes, Thamia and Johanna were responsive and informative. This made us feel complete trust and confidence in them before we even arrived. At all times Shoes and his co-hosts who were our amazing chefs, Martin and Tuwan, were accommodating of our interests and needs, ensuring we were comfortable and engaged in choices about the types of experiences available. What I really loved was that Shoes (what a treasure this man is!) is a highly credentialled and experienced guide who delighted in sharing his vast knowledge with humour and passion - nothing was too much trouble and no question was dismissed. The Khalanga Safaris family made the most wonderful holiday memories and indeed have made us eager to return for more. If you are thinking about a safari experience, and you can travel in a family and friends group - go with Shoes and the team.
