Wonderful experience!
5/5

I cannot say enough how wonderful this experience was. Booking was easy and secure, and every part of the journey thereafter made the beginning of our honeymoon truly an experience we will never forget. From airport pickup/drop-off and transfers, to the incredible meals prepared we felt taken care of. While they are wild animals who are under no one's control, it is because of our truly knowledgeable tour guides that we were able to see the Big 5 plus in such a short time. There is no other tour to take....believe me. We will be back!

Guide very knowledgeable and friendly. Respected privacy but also engaged. Cooking meals was a treat -- we expected restaurants and were pleasantly surprised.

Fantastic safari with the greatest guides :-)
5/5

An absolute perfect safari. Wild Planet Safari guided us through Kruger in an entirely exemplary manner. Perfect service, always with a smile, good food and 100% professinal at all time. No doubt that they possess a vast knowledge about the animals, Kruger park, the country and the environment. They guided us to all "the big 5"and many many more animal.......missed the cheetah!

The best visit to Kruger ever (out of 15 to 20 visits)
5/5

Upon reflection, having done +/- 15 trips to Kruger, I believe this was overall the best. The convenience (you guys handled everything) was fabulous but the eating interactions (once again your cooking skills) enhanced the experience past just seeing animals. Whilst there may have been a couple of things I may have preferred different, they are insignificant in the enjoyment of the whole experience.

The range of information and the intangible extras such as the friendly interaction was appreciated, too.

My compliments and thanks to yourself and Lungisani for all this and my regards and thanks to Thale for the administration and fantastic attitude in dealing with the plans.

I have a number of people wanting your details. If all come you will be busy !.

Once again, thank you all for a wonderful trip. This was my first holiday for 12 years and it exceeded my expectations.

Unbelievable experience with an excellent family run company.
5/5

The communication was very easy and prompt with a personal touch. They dealt with all my enquiries with knowledge , patience and a quick response. Their only concern was to make our holiday as personal and perfect as they could, dealing with every detail that was requested. We could not have had a better guide than Ryan his skill was unbelievable and he has knowledge was second to none. We would recommend Wild Planet Safari to anyone who wants an unforgettable experience in the company of a expert.

It was a wonderful experience and Ryan and Lungisani were great guides with so much fun and knowledg
5/5

Myself and three friends had a wonderful visit to South Africa and loved the safari with Ryan and Lungisani. The animal sightings were fabulous and I think we managed to see most of the big five as well as other smaller shy animals - honey badger, porcupine and so much more. Ryan's knowledge of the native birds and animals was amazing so we managed to get up his nose not remembering any of them - especially bush bucks. Wonderful trip - I'd recommend it to everyone.

Four of us (friends) travelled together and had an amazing time visiting three national parks in 11 days.
I would recommend this family company without hesitation.
If anyone would like to contact me for further details, it’s no problem.

Good experience
4/5

Ryan was very prompt in replying to my emails and very accommodating of our requests to customise our 15 day tour of eastern South Africa. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and particularly the birdlife of the areas we visited. The accommodation he booked for us lived up to and sometimes surpassed our expectations. It was a combination of lodges and luxury tents. Overall we had a very memorable and enjoyable safari tour and I would certainly recommend this company.

best safari ever!
5/5

simply said: It was just amazing! we enjoyed such a great time with Ryan and his friend at the safari!
Ryan knows probably everything there is to know about safaris and the animal kingdom in it. He finds a good balance of telling facts and stories and of just enjoying the wildlife. Furthermore, they cooked very delicious and even vegan for my girlfriend. They are very friendly and always helpful. I can recommend to book with them to every person who wants to enjoy a great safari-experience! At least for us it is clear: if we ever have time again to do a safari, we will book with Ryan!

Wonderful trip with amazing personalized service!
5/5

Ryan and Thale were great from the very beginning of our trip planning. They were very responsive to email and provided good feedback about how to organize the trip we wanted and get the best out of our experience in Kruger Park. We booked almost a year in advance, and spent a wonderful 7 day safari staying in secluded bush camps within the park. The safari van was comfortable and game drives were fun and engaging, even for our 7 year old. Ryan always had interesting facts to share about the animals, plants, and birds we were seeing.
Ryan and his assistant, Lungsani, made our trip a true holiday for us! They skillfully prepared all of our meals and took care of every detail. They were fun and engaging to hang out with and we feel like we've made life long friends!
Kruger Park itself far surpassed our expectations! The facilities at the park were clean and well maintained, and the animals, well we are still in awe of all the animals we saw and photos we took. It truly was the trip of a lifetime!
