Great, personal experience
The tour was great and our tour guide Norman was very friendly and reliable. He provided a lot of interesting information about the country and kept us safe throughout the tour. The panorama route was another highlight that we wouldn't have want to miss.
Only thing that could be improved was the information before the trip (how and when the second part of the payment is going to happen, which hotel will we stay at, time of pickup etc.): for our taste this was all a bit late. Regarding the trip it was mostly as described, however, we were a bit surprised that the sunset drive was in a 20 people bus rather than a small vehicle. Besides this one activity all was as advertised and the hotel was clean and well equipped. The restaurant was ok although not great.
Overall we did enjoy our trip very much and can recommend this company. Norman is a great tour guide and we are sure you will have a good time with him.

Perfect Safari experience with private transfers
Norman and his team provided a great experience. Our luggage were lost and he helped to accommodate and reschedule for the delay in a very responsive and professional way. We had a private transfer both ways to Kruger and the driver was fun, knowledgeable and expert so it was very enjoyable. Everything was well organized and taken care of so we could only enjoy our vacation. We also managed to see all the big 5. Highly recommended, it was a great experience!!

Excellent punctual service!
I was quite skeptic initially because i had a bad pick and drop for another activity. But these guys were really good and 100% on time. I am going to get my future bookings directly with these guys for sure. Highly recommended.

Good organization, nice people
We had a great 3 days safari trip to Kruger parc from Johannesburg, including transfers by car, an evening game drive and a full day game drive in the national parc, and a trip back on Panorama road with wonderful stops at a waterfall and Blyde river canyon. All the booking and payment procedures went smoothly, and the manager has always answered to my mails without delays. The organization was flawless, everything on time and without any problem. We stayed at Sabie River Bush Lodge, and it was also a very good accommodation offering excellent cuisine and exciting atmosphere. We could watch hippos swimming in the river from our tent and restaurant.
Our driver was a charming person, we enjoyed his conversation very much, he was attentive and friendly. On the third day there was much fog on the Panorama road, so he changed the plan a little bit to let us enjoy another viewpoint instead of the one which could not be seen.
I can fully recommend the company and the option. If you do not have much time to spend in Kruger parc, the 3 days program seems quite satisfying.

Fabulous experience - 4 days trip in Kruger Park + Panorama route
We had a great experience with Nhlalala in Kruger Park.
We were looking for a combination of safari + other activities in our 4-day trip. We combined the Panorama Route on our way to Kruger with 3 days in the Park, with safaris, sunset and sunrise drives and a bush walk (we thought to add something slightly different to regular safaris, and can totally recommend it).
The organization by Nhlalala was perfect, and we stayed the 3 nights in the same (super nice) hotel which for us was a deciding factor.
Norman (our guide) was available at all times and we always in good hands!! Kudos to him.

Amazing experience.
Everything was perfect. No issues at all. Khongi was a fully knowleable guide, an amazing person and we had a fun drives with him. If I would have to repeat, I would not hesitate a second.

Norman was outstanding to coordinate the trip with due to his flexibility and prompt responses.
Norman was great at accommodating my travel and payment requests. Khongi was the driver assigned to my trip. He was a friendly and outgoing personality which made him easy to talk to. He expertly navigated the many potholes on the Panorama Route. I felt safe with his driving the entire trip.
The Kruger Gate Hotel was amazing as was the safari at Kruger National Park. The safari was a new experience, and I therefore had a lot of questions. All of the tour operators were patient to ensure I was comfortable. I did the full day safari which included two breaks. One in the morning and one for lunch.
The Panorama Route was a long trip back to Johannesburg. We made two stops. One at the Lisbon Falls and the second at the Blyde River Canyon (includes the Three Rondavels). The weather wasn't great but we managed to see the sites despite the rain and clouds. Beware that this route doubled the amount of time to drive back to Johannesburg.
Overall, Nhlalala Travel was a lovely group to work with.

Absolutely the best. I would highly recommend especially the driver Khongi. He is the best.
I recently visited Johannesburg and was looking for a tour operator to show me around during my limited stay, during my search on Internet I found Nhlalala Travel. I must say without hesitation that this company is excellent. My chauffeur was Mr. Khongi, who is extremely cooperative, and very experienced. He knows his ways around the area and is pleasant to ride with. He very helpful and knowledgeable. I would recommend them highly for 100% satisfaction.
