great service, great tour
Our July visit to Kruger National Park was absolutely incredible! The dry season truly lived up to its reputation; the sparse vegetation made spotting wildlife so much easier, and we were treated to an abundance of animal sightings, especially around the waterholes. The daytime weather was perfectly mild and comfortable for game drives, though we definitely appreciated our warm layers for the crisp early mornings and evenings. Seeing the animals in their natural habitat, so active and visible, was an unforgettable experience. Even with it being a popular time, the magic of the bush still shone through, making it a truly positive and memorable safari.

An unforgettable Safari Experience with Kruger Safari Co. and Greenfire Lodge!
Where do I even begin? Our safari experience with Kruger Safari Co. and Wayne was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The organisational aspects of the trip were flawless. Communication was clear and timely, which made the entire process stress-free and easy to navigate. Wayne was incredibly attentive, ensuring all our needs were met, and every detail was taken care of. From transport to logistics, everything ran like clockwork, and the value for money was exceptional. We could not have asked for a more reliable and well-organised tour!
Our stay at Greenfire Lodge in Balule Game Reserve was equally amazing. The staff—Carol, Nigel, Ros, Veronica, Crescent, and Glorify—treated us like family from the moment we arrived. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. The lodge itself was beautiful and comfortable, the perfect place to unwind after a thrilling day in the reserve. The food was delicious, and the surroundings were peaceful and serene—just what you need after a day of excitement.
As for our safari guide, Given, he was truly exceptional. His experience and passion for wildlife were immediately evident. His knowledge of the animals and the land was impressive, and his tracking skills were top-notch. Through his determination, patience, and infectious enthusiasm, we were lucky enough to witness the Big 5 in all their glory—plus hippos, crocs, zebras, hyenas, impalas, duiker, and more! It was like living in a nature documentary, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide to make it all happen. His kindness, humour, and genuine love for the animals made the experience even more special.
I can’t thank Wayne, Given, and the entire Greenfire Lodge team enough for making this trip a dream come true for my family and me. The memories we created will last a lifetime and we did not want to come home!
If you're looking for an unforgettable safari experience, Kruger Safari Co. and Greenfire Lodge should be your top choice. You will not be disappointed! 🌟

We dealt with Wayne Barnes From our first initial enquiry until the end of the tour he was fantastic
We cannot praise Kruger Safari Co enough. Our 5 day tour of Kruger National Park and the Panorama route was brilliant from beginning to end. Our contact Wayne Barnes was so easy to deal with and answered any questions that we had before we even booked the tour. He detailed our every day itinerary and also kept in contact with us throughout the tour. Every day ran smoothly and so well organised. The Safari Adventure Lodge was a great place to stay. We had a chalet which was so cosy and warm to come home to at the end of each day and the meals were fantastic. The staff were lovely too. Kruger park was just amazing and we were lucky enough to see all of the big 5 along with so many other animals. The drivers were informative about the animals and we learnt so much about each one. Words and pictures could never describe just how awesome Kruger Park was. To be so close with all these amazing animals is just something indescribable. An experience of a lifetime. The panorama route was also spectacular with such beautiful landscapes. Again brilliant! Excellent value for the money. If we ere ever lucky enough to visit Africa again we would book with Kruger Safari Co. So professional and look after you from beginning to end. Thank you so much Kruger Safari Co. and especially to you Wayne.

Super helpful - handled everything!
We found Wayne and The Kruger Safari Co. as we were online trying to sort through the many venues, options, and types of safari adventures and accommodations online. We reached out to Wayne for guidance, and he took it from there! He patiently and promptly answered all our many questions, provided thoughtful suggestions, and guided us to the PERFECT all-inclusive stay for our family of eight adults. It was fabulous - - accommodations were lovely, food was delicious, safaris were exciting and fun. Everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful time. Many thanks to The Kruger Safari Co for setting up the vacation-of-a-lifetime for our whole family!

The Kurger Safari Co. delivers exceptional, personalized, and unforgettable safari adventures.
My recent, rather spontaneous, short trip with The Kurger Safari Co. was an absolutely exceptional experience, exceeding all my expectations. From the very first contact, the team went above and beyond to make my adventure possible, seamlessly organizing transportation tailored precisely to my needs.
The entire operation ran with outstanding efficiency. Punctuality was a hallmark of the safari drivers, ensuring that every moment was maximized for wildlife viewing. And what an experience that was! The sheer number and variety of wild animals I encountered in such a limited timeframe was simply breathtaking – a testament to the expertise of the guides and the richness of the Kruger ecosystem.
Even the journey back to Johannesburg International Airport became a highlight. My driver, a truly engaging and enjoyable character, opted for a slightly longer but infinitely more scenic route. This unexpected detour added another layer of beauty to my trip. As the sole passenger, we shared long and fascinating conversations, making the five-hour drive feel significantly shorter.
For anyone seeking a truly remarkable and meticulously organized safari experience, I wholeheartedly recommend The Kurger Safari Co. Their dedication to customer satisfaction and their ability to deliver an unforgettable wildlife adventure are second to none.

Real African Safari
We had a 3 day fly safari in Imbali. Our adventure was organized at the highest level, starting from the booking of plane tickets and ending with the service, the hotel is located in the center of Kruger Park and it is part of it. Animals walk next to you, while dining you can see giraffes or elephants, impalas walking around the hotel, the service and food are like in the best 5-star hotels in the world. Early in the morning and in the evening at sunset, the guide drived us in SUV through the savannah where we saw leopards, elephants, buffaloes, hyenas, giraffes and many other animals in wild nature. There are a lot of impressions and emotions from the trip. Many thanks to the organizers.

I had such wonderful time, the lodge was premium and gorgeous, the food was excellent and the staff were fantastic.
The safari rides were an amazing experience and we saw the big five along with a bunch more animals. There was even elephants and lions in view from our patio at the lodge.
A once in a lifetime experience, although I plan to go back!!
