Pilanesberg camping
I realy enjoyed my Pilanesburg camping trip. My guide Dennis was very good at explaing about the animals and environment. I was really happy to see some lions and elephants,we saw many other wild animals. The bird life at the water hides was amazing.

It was an experience of a lifetime.
I have been looking on going on a photo safari for quite some time now and I really enjoyed my time in Kruger National Park. We saw a nice variety of animals and the drivers and guides were fantastic. The rooms were good and the food was home made and tasty. I was picked up promptly at the airport in Johannesburg on my arrival and dropped off at my hotel in Johannesburg as well. Everything was organized and well run. I plan on taking another safari at some point and would book again with Safari With Us without hesitation.
Wonderful experience
With very short notice, Andre arranged a wonderful trip for us. The lodges, meals, guides, and safari were perfect, very well organized, and the staff was very competent and attentive. And, of course, the animals were amazing!

Fantastic Experience at Pilanesburg National Park
We arrived at the airport and were met by Dennis, who, throughout the whole tour, was incredible. He drove us to our lodge, entertaining us with stories throughout the journey and giving us a real insight into real South African life as we travelled towards Pilanesburg.
We arrived at the park and were given the option of a guided (by Dennis) drive tour before sunset. Despite travelling from the UK all day and the long journey, we were anxious to go on safari. On our first drive, we saw a huge Bull elephant and the elusive Leopard. Dennis seemed genuinely awestruck as he explained that the Leopard was so rarely seen! it was a pleasure to get to know him throughout our tour. He was completely happy to answer any questions and nothing was too much for him. We were treated to sightings of four of the big five (did not see the water buffalo) on our 4 day safari. I would unreservedly recommend this company and Dennis as an option for any Safari in South Africa. It was manageable and close enough to Johannesburg for our relatively short time in SA. Keep doing what you're doing!
thank you so much,
Jeremy and Laura

The Big five an amazing experience
What can I say..... What an amazing experience. The communication before I went was spot on, Andre's instructions were clear, precise and when I arrive at the airport everything went like he said it would. I had the pleasure of meeting andre while out in South Africa. He is a top bloke, who is very passionate about South Africa and will do anything to make sure you have an enjoyable time and that you are happy with everything.
The safari was everything I wanted it to be with in the first three hours of the safari we saw all of the big five. We saw countless animals; lions, buffalo, leopards, elephants (x20 and in herds), Giraffes, Rhinos (at a distant lol), Warthogs, Empla's, Waterbucks. The animals were so close it, it was brilliant. The safari staff were great and their ability to spot the animals is just incredible.
I wasn't really knowing what to except when it came to the accommodation. But I can report I was very happy, not 5 Star, But clean comfortable and the service from the staff was amazing, really 5 star. I really felt like they cared about my experience.
Lastly if your thinking about about going on safari do it, It will truly be the experience of a life time and If you choose South Africa, use safaribooking.com YOU won't regret it.

Dealing with safariwithus was seamless and efficient!
We were so impressed with safariwithus. E mails were retuned right away with all the necessary information. When it came to being picked up in Johannesburg for our game reserve trip, the driver was punctual and very safe. The game lodge we went to was excellent. The staff were attentive and the food was great. The accommodation was beautiful and clean. The entire experience beat our expectations.
Well organized tour
The tour was well designed and excuted, the activities allocated to certain days made sense. The tour guides on the safari were knowledgeable and accommodating to our requests.

Great Trip
Everything was just fantastic. The guides on the safaris were all great, particularly James. He is very passionate about the animals and we learned a lot. The accommodations were also excellent. The restaurant for lunch was very good, both food and service. It is an experience that we will remember fondly for a long time. I would highly recommend your company.

You Never Forget Your First Elephant Sighting!
I went on the 4 day Kruger Treehouse tour with my husband, 9 year old daughter and 68 year old mother-in-law. The pickups and transfers were superbly organized with no fear of being stuck or left behind. The group we traveled with was young, dynamic and international. We were alone with our guide for the rest of our 3 week African trip, so it was nice change to be in a group during the Kruger tour.
The accommodations were great! It was a bit chilly the first night in the treehouse, but that's why I brought my beanie! The food was nothing fancy, but good and there was no problem with my vegetarian request.
On the first night, we went on a sunset drive and enjoyed a braai. There too, I was able to eat! On the way back, it was pitch black, we drove around a corner and then bam! There they were, a family of elephants, right in the middle of the rugged path. There was one female and four younger elephants of all different stages of life. Our guide, Tanya, said that the female adult was about to give birth any minute/day. It was one of the most magical moments I’ve ever experienced.
There were a few things that I feel Kruger itself could improve upon. Self-Driving seems to be a problem. Not all self drivers gave the animals the right of way and there were too many vehicles for my taste. Guided tours with educated and respectful drivers should only be allowed in these game parks.
Also, Kruger is huge which makes it a bit more difficult to see all the animals. Either you're lucky or you're not. We were not so lucky at Kruger because we didn't see rhinos or leopards. I wasn't expecting to see leopards though since that's rare. We finally got to see Rhinos along the Garden Route though, so I was able to fly back home with a smile on my face!
The organization and communication with Safari With Us was superb and the price was right! I'll definitely book my next trip with them, but this time I want to visit the Madikwe Game Reserve.
