Fabulous from start to finish
5/5

This was our 2nd visit to Kruger South Africa. We had a fantastic service yet again with Elephant Herd Tours... We had a private safari and mostly we had Trevor as our experienced guide... We do wildlife photography so for us it was important to stop to take photos.. Trevor was absolutely brilliant ay positioning our Safari truck so that we could get some good images... also he was happy to stop at any time for us to take images of birds etc as well as the Big Five ... nothing was too much trouble we even used Elephant Herd to pick us up and return us to the airport ... We are keen to return for a 3rd visit and we will use Elephant Herd Tours again.... They are reasonably priced and very reliable... all in all absolutely fantastic :)

Great service and excellent value for money
5/5

Elephant Herd Tours was arranged through our BnB hosts and we couldn't compliment them enough on their choice. We were picked up at our accommodation early morning and the experience was everything we expected and more. Our goal was to see a leopard and this happened in the first hour. The guide was great providing good information.
We really enjoyed the day.

An amazing unforgettable experience
5/5

Our very enthusiastic guide and driver Stijn showed us some amazing parts of Krugerpark. Thanks to his quick thinking and handling we got to experience some of the big 5 animals from up close.

Outstanding tour operator
5/5

The program was perfectly organized, without a single hitch. Everything that had been planned and announced was carried out exactly as promised.

The choice of a two-part itinerary, with Bambu Lake Lodge near Kruger National Park and Greenfire Lodge (Babule), was perfect! The safaris at Greenfire Lodge, with a private jeep just for the three of us, were absolutely spectacular.

We can only highly recommend ElefantHerd!

We booked a private game drive as we have a severely autistic boy. Totally the money worth
5/5

We have a severely autistic child and the tour guide deserved a 10 out of 10. Being mindful that our son might had quick reaction or might made noises, he minded his distance from the animals. He also spotted the smallest of animals like a tortoise or chameleon and he truly spoiled us with beautiful sightings, like a mother hyena with her cub.

An incredible, unique experience!
5/5

It was an incredible experience to be able to see these animals in an up close and personal way. A definite highlight of our trip to South Africa, and we’d certainly do it again.

An excellent safari operator offering knowledgeable guides, comfortable vehicles and great value
5/5

We had originally booked a morning safari, but after Bhekifas’ warm and enthusiastic introduction, we immediately decided to extend it to a full day. His knowledge was exceptional throughout, and his relentless drive to seek out major sightings made the day a real success.

The safari was excellent value for money, especially when we extended to a full day. The vehicle was well maintained and comfortable, and the blankets were a welcome touch in the cooler early morning temperatures.

Fantastic! Highly recommended.
5/5

I had a wonderful experience with Elephant Herd Safari, our guide Smiley was incredibly knowledgeable. He ensured that he understood our aim (big cats) and delivered to the best of his abilities. We felt safe and had an amazing time. We saw the big 5 plus wild dogs and even a cheetah. Highly recommend.
