The review below is the personal opinion of James and not that of SafariBookings.
Charismatic and a pleasure to be around.
3/5

Unfortunately the booking with SafariLink left a bad taste in my mouth before the trip even started... but read my whole review before it leaves a bad taste in yours.

Booking with (Nobhule? At least that's the name that is on the invoice) was like trying to extract information from a stone and talking to an edgy teenager with their short, extremely unprofessional replies. After booking, I recieved no information as to where the shuttle was going to be (I knew I was going to be picked up in a shopping center, but the shopping center is medium sized and there was a few places the shuttle could've been) and after asking multiple times for the booking confirmation by calling and SMS, I never received it. I infact arrived at my shuttle the morning of, with no booking confirmation, stressing I was going to get denied the shuttle I had paid for.
SafariLink had 3 full business daysand 5 ½ regular days to send me the booking confirmation.
This was by far the most frustrating booking experience I've had.

But other than the friction and hassles dealing with the salesrep, the trip was a breeze and super smooth experience. The driver - Thomas - was fun, friendly and full of smiles. When everyone was in the shuttle he explained how low we had before the first stop, between the 1st and 2nd, and then how low we had after, and refreshed everyone's memory after every stop. He did a really good job with driving the pothole-y road from OR Tambo to Hoedspruit.

"Professional comfortable and stress-free transfer from Hoedspruit to Johannesburg
5/5

We booked a private transfer for two people from Hoedspruit to Johannesburg with Safari Link SA and the experience was excellent from start to finish.

Our driver, Thomas, was punctual and arrived exactly on time for our pickup. Throughout the journey, he was very professional and polite. He gave us helpful recommendations, including suggesting a great place to stop for lunch. He was very accommodating to our needs and made us feel comfortable throughout the trip.

The journey took approximately 6.5 hours, including a 30-minute lunch stop and a short 5-minute break. The drive was smooth and well-paced.

We highly recommend Safari Link SA and especially Thomas to anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable and professional transfer service in South Africa.
