A very enthusiastic and kind person who truly wishes to give you the best experience!
5/5

We were driven around by Steyn, a very kind and enthusiastic young man. It was a birthday from one of us, and we had a private tour. Steyn committed all he had to helping us see the lions. On the way, he gave all sorts of information on the animals and it was clear he loves his job. Of course, we were lucky to see as many animals as we did, but Steyn made it unforgettable!

Elephant Herd Tours Turned Our Dream Safari Into a Lifetime Memory
5/5

From the very beginning, Elephant Herd Tours & Safari exceeded every expectation we had.

They were always punctual, extremely well organized, and genuinely caring. Every single person we interacted with was friendly, warm, and consistently went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy throughout the journey.

The places they chose for us to stay were absolutely magnificent, beautiful hotels and lodges that elevated the entire experience and made each day feel special and memorable.

One detail that truly touched us was how personal the service felt. Our tour coordinator even took the time to visit us at our hotel to meet us in person, which speaks volumes about how much they care about their guests and the experience they provide.

Thanks to Elephant Herd Tours, our 5-day tour through Kruger National Park, the Panorama Route, and a Private Reserve became an unforgettable adventure filled with incredible moments, breathtaking landscapes, and memories we will cherish forever.

If you are looking for a safari experience that is professional, personal, and truly exceptional, I cannot recommend Elephant Herd Tours & Safari enough.

Kruger Park Safari, Panorama route, zip lining over the Jungle and elephant whisper
5/5

My husband and I had a great experience all around with our guide Trevor who knows a lot and willing to tell and share. He was great craick and also able to give us time and space to discover for our selves. He picked us up in Hoedspriut where we had visited a private game park for a few days and he drove us on a whole day Panorama Route sightseeing with amazing scenery! The next day we went ziplining over the jungle- very exciting! and afterwards we went to the also exciting and amazing Elephant whisper encounter in Hazy view. The day after we went for a full day safari in Kruger park and spotted all the big 5 and many more, even cheetas! Elephant heard was able to taylor make our Itinarary and we stayed in 2 different places- both great! We definitly recomend Elephant Heard to others :-) :-)

5/5

I recently experienced an unforgettable safari in South Africa’s Kruger National Park.
Our guide Bhekifa was exceptionally knowledgeable, sharing insights that enriched every moment.
Thanks to his expertise, we spotted an impressive variety of wildlife.
Seeing all of the Big Five up close was truly breathtaking.
Each game drive felt safe, well-organized, and exciting.
The landscapes and atmosphere made the adventure even more magical.
I highly recommend this safari to anyone seeking an authentic and thrilling wildlife experience.

5/5

Our guide picked us early in the morning. He was a very friendly and lovely guy. He was seeking for animals the whole time. He was also a very good driver who knows how to drive and find the best spots. We have been very happy to met him. We had a very good time on safari. Thanks to Elephant Herd Tours for this amazing experience.

Tailor-made safari with highly professional staff
5/5

I live in Catalonia and I love to travel. This summer we wanted to have an unforgettable trip to Africa, to go on a safari with my wife and our two children. We decided to travel to South Africa.

I searched on the Internet and came across the Safari Bookings portal. Once there, I chose three safari providers that I thought could offer us a tailor-made experience. From the very moment I contacted Elephant Herds, everything just flowed. Communication was quick and easy, and they prepared several versions of the itinerary to adapt to our needs (special thanks to Bev).

We wanted to be picked up as soon as we arrived at Johannesburg airport and taken straight to the Kruger area. The next day, they organized a full day of safari in Kruger. The following day, we did the Panorama Route, adapted with activities for the kids. On the last day, we enjoyed another full day of safari in Kruger, ending with a transfer to Nelspruit, from where we would continue our adventure with other operators.

The resort right next to Kruger was excellent, the restaurant was one of the highlights of the whole trip, and all the services—rangers, drivers, everything—worked punctually and exactly as agreed. Very professional. I had already thanked them by WhatsApp at the end, and I don’t usually write reviews, but in this case it is only fair to do so.

Many thanks,

The tour guide took us promptly narrating the facts about the animals of Kruger national park. We were lucky to spot a male lion. Our game drives were very pleasant and my kids enjoyed thoroughly.

If you are lucky enough to get Bev your trip can't be planned better. Bev/Patrick the dream team
5/5

Bev carefully planned our 6 day Kruger Park adventure to see and experience as much as one can do in that short period of time. I asked Bev to make sure we were in the park as much as possible knowing this might be the only time we visit South Africa. She didn't disappoint. We spent nearly 12 hours a day on a private Safari experience. There was 5 people in our group. Patrick was our driver/guide and he was the perfect chaperon. He was able to show use every animal but a cheetah and the wild dogs. The mornings started off with smiles and the day ended with smiles. Accommodations were perfect. Bev asked what we were looking for and delivered. The Elephant Herd Tour group is first class. Just tell them what you are looking for and they will arrange it for you. If you want something changed just ask. Bev changed things for me several times because I wasn't sure what I really wanted. My family was blessed we picked them to plan our trip.
