Perfect service and great tour
5/5

I have sent my parents (70+) on a group tour with Kruger Park Tours, and they loved the tour.
The service was excellent, everything was explained very clearly and the tour leader was very friendly and helpfull. The accommodations were great as well and very suitable for an elderly couple.
Many thanks Kruger Park Tours for your excellent service!

I long dreamed of going on the perfect safari.. Kruger Park Tours made it come true.
5/5

My title above is no exaggeration, I had a perfect safari. Every aspect of my visit was perfect. From the help I received organizing my ideas and choosing the right safari for me, all the way to my ride back to Johannesburg from Kruger Park.

I was lost with too many Safari options and speaking to several booking agents. I quickly became aware that Kruger Park Tours was going above and beyond what the others were doing for me. They spent weeks emailing, suggesting and quoting me despite my indecision. In the end they narrowed it down to the perfect Safari for me. For those curious, I did 4 nights and 5 days in hut. I went on 5 safari drives, 2 safari walks, and a scenic tour of other areas outside the park. I saw the big 5 many times over, and then some. The guides are terrific!! they know their wildlife and they know how to find it. They answered all of our questions with enthusiasm and a smile. It was truly and amazing experience to be out there. Then back in the camp the wonderful treatment just continued. We were so informed, so well fed. I mean really well fed! The food was terrific, my favorite was Kudu. The chef was great and food preparation and service was top notch and completely unexpected. I had thought I might be roughing it just a little, but it was not the case. A special thanks to Sello, Jeremiah and Kevin and the rest of the gang for making my Safari the best experience of my life. And, of course to Rochelle at Kruger Park Tours who made it all happen for me. Thank you everyone.

Good planning, Easy to reach out to.
5/5

Team organising my trip was really good and efficient at communication, email, Whatsapp, phone call, all was okay with them!

They booked in Umkumbe River Resort in Sabi Sands and a government resort in Kruger. Umkumbe was fantastic.

Only slight area of improvement was the itinerary wasn't clear on what to expect when transported to Kruger. Safari schedule wasn't clear.

Trip of a Lifetime
5/5

Johan was incredibly helpful in helping me plan my first safari excursion. With all of the safari options available in Africa it became very overwhelming. I reviewed a number of pre-planned itineraries and decided that building a custom tour was the best option for my party and Johan was very receptive. He provided a number of lodge options at different price points so I could look at everything and make the best decisions for our budget. We stayed at two different lodges and had different experiences at both which we really enjoyed. Umkumbe River Lodge - was quaint and we had the best safari guide who was very invested in making sure we could get as close to all the animals as possible. Kapama Southern Camp was out-of-this world with their level of service. They met all of our dietary needs and the food was incredible. We loved the boma experience in the evenings and the entertainment provided.

Overall our experience with Wild Kruger was top tier - payments were easy, transportation to airports and other lodges were seamless and all of our questions were answered so we felt well prepared. I have already forwarded on Wild Kruger's information to friends to help them plan future trips. I would absolutely recommend Johan and Wild Kruger and would use them again.

We had a versatile safari experience as a high-light of our journey
5/5

+ Communication (pre-safari) was fast
+ Our guide was very good and an excellent story teller
+ Food (local specialities prepared by the guide‘s wife) was delicious
+ Combination of Kruger camps + Sabi Sands luxury accommodation gave us a more holistic idea of the different types of parks and safari styles
- panorama route was below our expectation (looking back we‘d rather choose to spend one more day in the Kruger nationalpark because)

5/5

Really impressed with the high quality of everything offered; Kruger Park Tours did a fantastic job organizing our whole trip, having different activities to do each of the days, the whole team was very responsive to our initial email requests always replying in a timely manner, and they continued taking care of us during our whole stay.
With the help of Sonja and Johan we have spent one of the most incredible experiences in our life! We are very grateful and definitely will try to come back again to one of the safaris organized by Kruger Park Tours.

guide kept the distance allowed to be relaxed. Provided clear information about animals, nature, trip schedule . Excellent driver!
Tent at night stays was new and clean. Greeting present with creamy liquor in the bag was nice !
May be food in Wendy (or something like this ) cafe was monotone .

Perfect!
5/5

We were very happy with the tour team. They planned everything (from pick up from the hotel in Johannesburg to the dates and places of our accommodations in Kruger Park) in detail and all we had to do was show up. Our emails were speedily replied and our tour guide was the best! We had one of the most memorable days of our lives in the park. We did a combo tour where we got to experience staying in the bungalows, lodges and the tent, all of which were unique on their own. Highly recommended!

It was a fun and interactive way to see as much of Kruger (and the surrounding parks) as possible.
5/5

Kruger Park Tours offered a very convenient and easy to use tour that helped me see as much of the park as possible. The guides explained all the animals and the nature very well and worked efficiently to allow us to see as many animals as possible. Thanks to their combined efforts, we were able to see all sorts of animals, from lions to elephants. Additionally, the camp that I stayed at provided a very interactive style with the safari, as we often had animals just walking through the camp. The transport back and forth from Joburg was very efficient, as I was picked up at my hostel and dropped off at the airport. The food served was very good and traditional to the area. It was a great experience.
