Excellent service, wonderful guide. A forever memory.
Who wouldn't love to travel in one of the world's most amazing wildlife reserves with a competent, knowledgeable driver? Masilo charmed, delighted and enlightened us. He knows the beasts and the birds and can spot them even when hidden in the branches of a tree. His favorite animal is the leopard and he spotted two of them, quite close to the road so we were able to get terrific pictures. By the way, don't hesitate to hand him the camera. He has a good eye and a steady hand. His pictures were better than mine. I was probably too excited to hold the camera still.
We stayed in Skukuza which is a big and beautifully kept rest camp. Masilo was always waiting for us at 6:30 a.m., even when we got there early. If you are going to be staying in Skukuza, request Masilo as your driver. Then tell him he is being fondly remembered by his friends from Washington state.
Very organized operation. The staffs was available and care. Everything went as expected.
The communication has always been easy and care, the services provided always punctual. We had no problem. Everything was perfect!

Well organised, very friendly and professional.
I had a great time with Kruger Park Travel (Outlook), everything were well organized from the transfer from the airport to the Lodge then to Kruger Park, professional game rangers, the accommodation had the comfort standard and was clean, food was ok, further more we had a free panorama tour, I would recommend to travel with Kruger Park Travel.

Great Experience
We chose Kruger Park travel after reading a suggested itinerary on their website. We're very glad we did as Mike and Kylie were extremely helpful and efficient regarding personalising our trip and answering any questions that arose.
We did have a problem with our hotel booking but Mike was able to resolve the problem and suggested alternative accommodation at Kruger Park Lodge which was excellent and probably better than the original.
The whole experience was fantastic and the game drives exceeded expectations, as we were lucky enough to see the big five.
I would recommend using this company for their personal service and knowledge.
Many thanks Kylie and Mike

Helpful, informative, efficient and well organised
When you start to look for a tour operator on line you are always taking a bit of a risk so often rely on reviews and the interaction with the company/staff. I was looking for a few days at Kruger after a business trip and the people at Kruger Park Travel couldn't have been more helpful. Mike Swart was happy to answer as many questions as I asked him and Kylie Haslam was very efficient with the paperwork and also responding very quickly to my emails - even a few hours before I was due to land in J'burg. I stayed at the Outlook Lodge where the host Francois was welcoming and entertaining. Everything ran smoothly - picked up, dropped off, things explained, trips provided, all as they said. I was travelling solo and was with a mixed group of couples and solos and we all met up at meals and took the trips together or mixed with other groups so you were always included. I would happily book again with Kruger Park Travel.

Personalized service, great value and a pleasure to work with ..
In an age where most people prefer to do their own travel arrangements directly or on-line, my experience with Kruger Park Travel strongly reinforces the value add an independent travel agent provides. I found Kruger Park Travel while searching on the web. Their web site was well laid out, Mike Swart the owner responded promptly to my on-line request for information. I called and spoke with him, he took the time to understand what my daughter and I were looking for, and I liked his insights and honesty. His suggestions were spot on and he I liked that he was always available to field any questions we had and make any adjustments where needed during our trip. He created a custom itinerary for us covering Kruger National Park, Cape Town and the Garden Route; all a very good value for the price. His associate Kylie, who handles the bookings and ticketing was a pleasure to work with: responsive to our requests and efficient. Mike, Kylie and our tour operator (Outlook Safaris) worked together to give us one of the best vacation experiences we've had. I would highly recommend Mike & Kruger Park Travel.

Fantastic trip
Have just returned from a two week trip to Johannesburg, Kruger Park, Victoria Falls and Cape Town and was very impressed with the service provided by Kruger Park Travel.
Prior to the trip Mike and Kylie were quick and helpful when responding to all our queries, whilst the tour itself was very well organised in terms of airport transfers etc.
The four hotels we stayed in were also very good and all the activities included in the tour were great - we couldn't have had a more enjoyable time!

Excellent!!! Outstanding!!!
Booking was so easy, plenty of communication before the safari, ease of payment. Nothing was too much trouble for Kylie who assisted me with my booking. Then the safari. Wow!! Picked up from my Lodge in J'burg (and delivered back) and driven to Kruger. The safari, camp, staff were all incredible. I could not fault any part of this experience, it was excellent value for money, the camp was perfect and comfortable. I chose the Classic 4 Day safari which I preferred as I wanted the extra comfort of the Chalet accommodation and the extra day of a game drive. Skukuza camp was fantastic, from the staff to the representatives of Outlook Safaris who looked after me. I am a solo traveller and never once felt it. I cannot rate this entire experience highly enough and I thoroughly recommend anyone wanting to travel to Kruger to book with Kruger Park Travel. 10 out of 10!!!!! (and do a drive with Beno, brilliant guide).

Wild life - up close and personal
A truly memorable experience where we saw wild life in it's natural habitat. We opted for the 3 day safari (2 full day and 2 half day game drives) and we were incredibly lucky to see lions, a leopard and a cheetah in such close proximity. It was such a marvelous sight.
Accommodation was fantastic and very comfortable. A big thumbs up.
