Wildlife Safaris, the prefect start to a once in a lifetime holiday
5/5

We recently completed a 4-day safari in Kruger National Park with Wildlife Safaris, and from start to finish, the entire experience was great.

Booking the trip was incredibly convenient and completely hassle-free. The communication from the team was prompt and professional, and everything was clearly laid out, which made planning our adventure easy and stress-free.

Our guide for the safari, Simon, was absolutely outstanding. From the moment we met him, it was clear we were in excellent hands. Simon knew the answer to every question we asked - about the wildlife, about South Africa’s history, culture and society. He’s not only extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the park and its wildlife, but also genuinely passionate about what he does. Simon made every moment engaging. Beyond his expertise, he’s also a warm and friendly person, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

We saw the Big Five and so much more — from elephants and leopards to a variety of birds and smaller creatures we wouldn’t have noticed without Simon’s trained eye. The accommodations, meals, and itinerary were all perfectly arranged, giving us the ideal mix of adventure, comfort, and downtime. The website clearly shows the accommodation and it is as described - clean and fitting for the experience.

We booked the Safari as a couple and were placed in a group of 6 throughout the 4 days. This only added to our experience from the laughs to the friendships made.

We can’t recommend Wildlife Safaris enough, and a special thanks again to Simon for making this trip so memorable. If you’re considering a safari in Kruger, this is the company to go with, and Simon is your man!

Kruger classic with Simon
5/5

With our guide Simon the Park has been so impressive. Simon drove our group of 6 people to areas where few cars went, across a vast array of places over the 3 days. we are very grateful for the details he shared with us about the life of the animals, the different species and the rules of nature that are often rude but come with their purpose to control the ecosystem. Simon has been so friendly to all of us and we felt incredibly safe the entire time.
The accomodation were nice and being inside Skukuza camp the first night let us do the sunset/nigt safary that was incredible.

Experience of a lifetime
5/5

We did the 5 days Safari plus Panoramic Route, which is good balance of animal sighting and natural scenery. Our guide Hoppy was warm and friendly and took good care of us. We saw the Big 5. We were just a stone's throw from a male lion and a leopard.

Amazing 5-Day Safari in Kruger + Panorama Route
5/5

We had an amazing time on our safari. Our guide, Barney, was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and the park and always made sure we had the best experience. He was patient and gave us plenty of time to watch the animals and take pictures. We were lucky to see four of the Big Five (just missing rhinos), and we saw a wide variety of other wildlife too. All of the accommodations were great. At the Sabie River Bush Lodge, we got to see elephants from our tents, and at Satara, we got to go on a sunset drive. Kruger is such an amazing place, and this tour truly highlighted everything Kruger has to offer. Ending the trip with the Panorama Route was beautiful and a perfect way to wrap up the trip.

Fantastic experience!
5/5

We have had a great experience with Wildlife Safaris, from the begining (booking) to the very end (drop off at final hotel).
Our guide, Simon Taylor, was very knowledgeable of all surroundings at Kruger Park, and also about the history of the park and of South Africa.
The van was very comfortable and safe. We're a family of four.
All according to plan and schedule.
I truly recommend the experience with Wildlife Safaris.

The operator and the guide were top notch.
5/5

I was nervous when I booked this trip, you know with all the scams going around these days. But every time I sent an email asking some questions the staff at Wildlife Safaris quickly responded. Barney our guide was very knowledgeable and willing to work to meet our interests. By the end of the second day we had seen all the big five animals and many of the others on our list. We are already planning our next trip to Africa.

It was an unforgettable experience
5/5

We are very happy we chose Wildlife Safari.

Our guide was truly incredibly kind and gave us some truly wonderful days and experiences.

The hotels and the food were always very good.

At the Sabie River Bush Lodge, we woke up to the sounds of hippos, and from the shower, I could watch the elephants eating.

At the Satara rest camp, we could hear the lions very close by, which was a very beautiful experience for me.

We saw elephants, lions, giraffes, hyenas, hippos, water buffalo, leopards, and even a cheetah. A variety of birds and much more.

It was truly beautiful and beyond words.

Safe and convenient
5/5

If you want to remove all the logistical and safety problems for travelling on Safari this is your one stop shop.
Our guide, Simon Taylor, was fantastic. Very knowledgeable on animal, bird life and the history of S.A. together with being a safe and conservative driver.
A once in a lifetime experience with my 28 year old son and I thank you very much Simon.
