As excited to find the big draw animals as we were!
5/5

Worth every penny! Our tour guide was Trevor and he was excellent. He set out with a game plan and told us right from the start that he would be driving past the ‘everyday’ animals in a rush to get to the lions, leopards, etc first - before the park filled with early morning tourists and before the animals disappeared into the bush. He communicated reverently with colleagues and friends on the radio and was quick to pass information on to them as well about locations of interesting animals. We saw countless lions (I’d say about 25 at 6 different sights), a mother leopard and her cub in the trees, a pair of cheetahs walking through the grass, lots of elephants, a family of hyenas, buffalo etc. Of course, we were lucky to see all these animals on the tour, but Trevor’s attitude, positivity and knowledge made it all the more special. I can’t recommend this tour guide enough - he really was wonderful. Thanks again Trevor. Danny and Jarryd (UK)

Incredible
5/5

Our tour guide impressed me with his sight - he was able to see animals hundreds of meters away. I remember him saying “I am smelling a giraffe” and as we drove around the corner, we saw the giraffe. It was an incredible day with a lot of of animal sightings (elephants, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, one gepard, crocodile, hippos, buffalos and others). I would highly recommend a tour with Becki. He made our experience unforgettable. The tour was worth every penny. Thank you for this experience! :)

Knowledgeable, enthusiastic, accessible and friendly
5/5

Taking a professional tour with a knowledgeable guide into the Kruger National Park is somewhat key to the success of your experience. We viewed game we would never have spotted on our own and learned detailed facts about the fauna and flora. If you only have a short time in the Park it is highly recommended to book a trip with Elephant Heard Tours and Safaris!

5/5

Front start to finish this company was great at making a very fun and unforgettable trip for my mother and I. The transportation between airport and resorts and from resort to resort, the resorts we were stayed in were beautiful and affordable and the safari tours and panorama tours were incredible. All of the staff we dealt with were on schedule and they maybe the transport enjoyable with their friendliness and knowledge of the area and the tour. 100% recommend booking through Elephant Herds. They were ensure that you have an amazing and affordable experience that meets your wants.

Phenomenal!!! A+++
5/5

WOW!! Trip of a lifetime!
Although it has been 6 weeks since returning from South Africa and our multiple safaris in Kruger National Park with Elephant Herd Tours, I am still reliving our experiences daily! Brendon, the owner, goes above and beyond at every turn. Truly more than accommodating with all my requests. Trevor, our #1 guide is so incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and really did his best in finding all the wonderful wildlife in the park.
I highly recommend taking in both sunrise and sunset safaris, very different vibes for each. Elephant Whispers, the sanctuary is over the top beautiful and so educational! We also did a day Panorama tour, with Sean, which was beautiful. Many waterfalls, so green and breathtaking. Lots of fabulous local vendors at the waterfall stops to interact with and buy their goods. Overall, the experience was unforgettable! Thank you all!!!

second trip, twice amazed
5/5

This was the second time we traveled on a multi-day safari to Kruger NP with Elephant Herd (2016 and 2021). We chose Elephant Herd the first time because of the very punctual response on our questions. Brendon, the owner, is always very helpful in giving advise. The 2 guides we had were simply the best and they spared no effort to make our tyrip very memorable.

3- Day Kruger National Park Experience with Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris
5/5

My experience with Elephant Herd Tours was excellent! They were very attentive since the beggining, responding to all my e-mails very quickly. They organized everything, our transfer from Johanesburg, our hotel and the safari. The safari was awesome, we were able to see all the Big Five thanks to our guide Keegan.
I highly recommend Elephant Herd Tours.
