Wayne took care of every last detail providing us with a superior experience in every way
5/5

We had the most incredible experience with Wayne and The Kruger Safari Co. from start to finish. Wayne was very responsive, answering any questions and arranged flawless logistics—from the moment we arrived to the day we left. There were people arranged to meet us and take care of us every step of the way taking the worry out of being in a different country. Our safaris and lodging were superb from Greenfire lodge to Kapama Karula Lodge which was over the top amazing. Our guides in both places were fantastic and very knowledgeable, packing our drives with amazing sightings. The lodges, staff and food were all wonderful.
Highly recommend Wayne and The Kruger Safari Co, we couldn’t have asked for a better adventure!

From First-Timers to Happy Travelers – Zero Hiccups
5/5

This was our first safari and our first time visiting South Africa, and choosing The Kruger Safari Co. turned out to be the best decision we made.

From the very first introductory video call, Wayne came across as warm, professional, and completely transparent about every aspect of the trip. He patiently answered all our questions before booking—always promptly and in detail—which really helped put us at ease.

Once the trip began, everything was perfectly coordinated. We didn’t experience a single hiccup along the way, which made a huge difference as first-time visitors. It gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to just relax and enjoy the entire experience.

I would advise all my family and friends to book with Wayne from The Kruger Safari Co. without a doubt and definitly use it personally again.

We would highly recommend them to anyone, especially if it’s your first time visiting—book with confidence!

Very responsive and attentive
4/5

We had a great time on the Safari, Wayne was very helpful in arranging everything and helping when we had questions. The safari itself was well run and a special shoutout to the team at the Kruger Adventure Lodge who were excellent during our stay. The food there also was brilliant. The transfers at the airport were a little confusing but once you are on your way you will have a great time!

Exceptional once in a lifetime experience
5/5

We probably will only have one chance to visit South Africa in our lifetime. We are glad we had The Kruger Safari Company and Wayne along the way. From the time we landed to the time we left, every detail was accounted for. The lodges we stayed at were much more than we expected. The staff, the accommodations, and the guides were exceptional. If we are ever lucky enough to return, The Kruger Safari Company is the first call we will make. The value was much more than we expected and our experience had such an impact that we count this trip as our best. If we had any questions, Wayne was always quick to respond. Don't be disappointed with another company and use this company to arrange your trip. You won't regret it.

Professional and attention to detail.
5/5

We are a group of 4 couples that just returned from the most amazing safari orchestrated by Wayne Barnes of the Kruger Safari Company. The itinerary that Wayne put together was perfect from the lodges we stayed in to the game drives, food, transport and overall hospitality. Everything was so well executed to the smallest detail. Wayne even added a side trip to Victoria Falls even though it wasn’t within his normal area of expertise. If you are looking for a truly life changing trip, I highly recommend reaching out to Wayne to plan it for you. You will not be disappointed!

We had a really great experience. I strongly recommend The Kruger Safari Co and Green Fire Game Reserve at Balule Private Reserve.

Safari luxury in Kruger.
5/5

From the first inquiry and received response I felt that this will be excellent. The proposal for our 4 Day Classic Chalet Safari was very detailed and it was easily updated according to our changes in flight schedules.
Our plan was to be on a game drive as much as possible. Arriving in the afternoon and leaving before noon, this tour included remarkable one evening drive, two full-day drives and one morning drive.
Our guide was very professional and the crew spoiled us especially with the dinners. And sure that everyone can find a suitable accommodation.
We will always remember this tour and it was definitely worth every Euro (or Rand)! 🇿🇦🥰

Wayne is helpful, knowledgeable, organised and a good communicator.
5/5

Prior to our trip, we had limited knowledge of what to expect when visiting Kruger National Park. As the park is so vast, planning a trip felt daunting and expensive. The Kruger Safari Co. put our minds at ease and made everything incredibly easy for us. Everything was extremely well organised - from the flights to the transfers to and from the airport, the meals, and even the packed lunches for our safaris.
We highly recommend using The Kruger Safari Co. They are professional, friendly, and reliable.

4 Day Fly-In Kruger Safari + Panorama Route
5/5

Great tour package! Communications with The Kruger Safari Co. (in our case, with Wayne) went smoothly, with quick and clear communication and availability to clarify and help with any questions we had. We went in a group of 3 for their 4-day fly-in Kruger safari + Panorama Route tour from Cape Town. Their service was great, and we had a completely stress-free tour, with a great organisation and good value for money. Would recommend!
