Our tour guide was excellent! Very knowledgable not only of the park, but also the surrounding area. Would recommend Elephant Herd to everyone!

Excellent with a great guide
5/5

We were very happy with our safari, we were first to enter the park as it opened at the gate. Our guide was really knowledgeable and courteous and did his utmost to make our safari an enjoyable and successful one. I’d originally intended to drive in ourselves but was really glad we did it this way due to the knowledge of the driver and the height of the vehicle.

The selection of all places we visited was excellent.
5/5

We had an excellent experience with Elephant Herd. The places they chose for us to visit were amazing and the lodges were beautiful and felt like home. The best part was Bhekifa, the guide we had during the safari.

They went above and beyond
5/5

They went above and beyond to help us getting the best safari experience ever. They were extremely professional, helpful, and accommodating. Since we booked our trip to South Africa very late, I had a lot of weird and changing requests as I was finalizing our itinerary. Bev was extremely patient and helpful, and eventually we got the best possible experience ever.
We spotted all the big fives, and most of the ugly five, and it was really an unforgettable experience.

Life changing family vacation
5/5

Elephant herd was so conscientious to our needs from the first email till the last. Our guides were always listening to our needs for every decision. They were knowledgeable and friendly. The moments on safari we shared as a family were amazing. My kids still say it was their best vacation ever.

The best Safari operator anyone could ask for!!!
5/5

Elephant Herd was such an amazing operator, everything was great! The communication since i asked for a quote was fast and clear, also through the days we spent there (thanks Bev!). The guide that picked up us from te aiport and took care of us at arrival (Smiley) was friendly and helpful.
For the Safari we had the best guide, not kidding, THE BEST guide: Bekhifa! not only he was kind, friendly and funny he did everything he could to take us to find all the animals we wanted to see, including the big 5!! also rhinos, jiraffes, cheetas, hippos, zebras, etc. even birds, monkeys, owls... He could find any animal, he knew the park perfectly well and his vision through hthe landscape was incredible! The guy that drove us back to the airport also was great, don´t remember his name, we talked all the way back and made the ride comfortable.


Overall, i would rank them with a 100. Great service, value and reliability. I would recommend Elephant Herd everytime and would go back with them without a doubt! YOU MADE US HAVE A GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Trevor was our driver/guide, courteous, knowledgeable and friendly
5/5

With an early morning start on a overcast morning which probably helped us in seeing a lot of game, we saw lions as we entered the park, and spotted leopard, feeding hyena, elephant, jackals and much more within an hour of our tour, our tour was basically all day 06h30 to 15h00. a very long day, luckily in the morning it was very overcast ,which probably also helped us spot game in abundance. I would probably have called it a day after the mid morning break as as it got hotter, animals became harder to spot and it was a bit tiring but as an experience in the Kruger it was excellent and would totally recommend Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris. The cream on the cake was seeing a Hippo out of water lumbering towards our vehicle and then entering the dam close to our viewing position.

Once in a lifetime experience
5/5

My partner and I had a game drive with Bhekifa..where do I even begin...He said "today I'm going to find you a leopard" and he did spot one hanging on a tree from a distance, he was very educational, the best and patient game driver, he showed different types of birds, we also saw lions.. I don't know how to put in the right words but we had the best experience and it's all thanks to him...Bhekifa♡♡♡♡
