Made us feel comfortable at all times
5/5

Overall we were very impressed with our return journey from OR Tambo Airport (Joburg) to Becks Safari Lodge. The cost was reasonable and the service was excellent, with any queries whilst in South Africa answered promptly over WhatsApp by employees such as Kiesha.

Specific feedback on the two drivers:

Percy

A really experienced, kind and knowledgable driver who made us feel safe and comfortable the whole journey. We also made it in fantastic time to our lodge!

Stanley

Stanley had such a fantastic energy and enthusiasm which we still remember fondly. He took a scenic route to Joburg Airport and made our journey extremely comfortable by making two excellent stops.

Thank you Safarilink South Africa; I’m sure you will keep growing your business with such service and I’ll make sure I recommend you to anyone I can!

Excellent service and experience all around, will book again!
5/5

The shuttle service was really great from the welcome smile to goodbyes. It is extremely good value compared to a local flight, and even if the duration may seem a bit daunting, it really doesn't feel long at all! The driver was really nice and fun, often giving information of the area, and the shuttle very comfortable with usb charger as well, handy during a long drive. The number of stops were perfect to stretch our legs, get some snacks and drinks and even look at the views. We were lucky with other passengers too, which we even kept contact with.
Overall very happy and will definitely book again!

Dear SafariLink SA Staff

I had the privileged to make use of your services on Apr 17 Jhb Int Airport - Hoedspruit and again on Apr 21 Hoedspruit - Jhb Int Airport as I gift from friends to be able to visit them in Hoedspruit.

Both occasions I had an enjoyable trip with friendly, experienced drivers. What I appreciated on my trip to Hoedspruit from Jhb Int Airport was the efficient and friendly lady (Adele, I think?) receiving us at the bus terminal as it was my first time using the shuttle and there were overseas tourists travelling with us too. It was a much appreciated personal touch. Thank you!

Blessing, the driver on the 17th, was indeed a blessing - getting us to Hoedspruit in great time and with two comfort stops. Blessing has great people skills and an even better sense of humor which I really enjoyed on a trip that could have been very monotamous. He stopped at the Blyderiver Canon and allowed us to take some pictures and gave us interesting information, which even I as a South African, enjoyed in a part of the country I don't know so well.
He is also a very skilled driver maneuvering around big potholes with ease and keeping to the rules of the road.

My return trip on Apr 21 was as enjoyable with Stanley. There was a young mother on the trip with a baby and her son and Stanley took great care of getting them comfortable for the trip. He too is a good driver and kept to the rules of the road.
Initially my name and a fellow passenger were not listed on the return trip with him, but our trips was scheduled for the time he arrived. He took it upon himself to check with your office and sort it out for us. That gesture was much appreciated!


Kindly pass on my appreciation to all staff involved with the two trips (Adele? at Jhb Int Airport, Olivia sending trip confirmations via Whatsapp, the drivers Blessing and Stanley as well as Odette)

Both trips were enjoyable and I will recommend your services as well as use it in future should the opportunity to do so again arise.
