Safari in Krüger Park - what a great experience
5/5

We were taken excellent care during our safari in Krüger Park in January 2017 - from first meeting at airport in Johannesburg till return at same spot! Adrian and Lunghi were great guides with enormous competence, wonderful chefs and good company. They took care of exactly everything so that we could enjoy of our safari for 100 %. Booking, arrangements, accommodation etc were professionally organized by Thale. We are so happy that we chose Wild Planet Safari and recommend it warmly! And all Scandinavians: Thale är norska!

We Had a Incredible time!
5/5

Our Stay with wild planet safari was amazing, from day one of the booking the communication through email with Thala was amazing, we were totally informed and given any information that we needed and even helped us book a hotel the night before our safari pick up - which offered a airport shuttle making it super easy to get too after our flight. The drive to Kruger was long but went so quickly!!, Our room in Kruger was lovely and big! with a great area outside where we had most of our meals. We managed to see the Big 5 and loads more during our 2night 3day tour and learnt so many new things from our amazing guide Ryan who was able to answer any of our questions!. We were treated to some amazing food throughout our stay, eating breakfast by the river during a massive rain downpour, and eating lunch with bush pigs and monkeys nearby. Sunny and Brendan were also super lovely and great both great to talk to with lots of stories! Each drive was just as good as the one before, always seeing something new, and loved how everyone got excited for any of the animals that we saw, - especially the wild dogs!!. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay for longer! and if we ever get the chance to come again then it will be with the Wild Planet Safari and for longer!! , Thank you Guys for making our trip wonderful!

Best experience ever great for kids
5/5

We went on a 4 day/3 night Safari with Ryan, Thale and their son Felix. We have two young children age 7/5 which is one of the reasons we choose Wild Planet Safari as they were so flexible and accommodating. We had the best experience ever from the information received before we went and a great time during our stay. We had the safari all to ourselves and as such were able to taylor it to our needs. We went to an elephant sanctuary on the first day which I would highly recommend where we paid to interact with elephants including riding them. Kruger park is an amazing place made even more interesting by Ryan who's passion and knowledge is never ending. Ryan was always able to spot everything from animals in the bush, birds in trees and even tracks in the road. Also the meals we had cooked by Ryan and Thale were amazing giving us a real taste of African cuisine. We will hopefully return one day when the children are older and can enjoy a different experience if we do we would choose to go with Ryan again I can't imagine anyone being as amazing as he was throughout our stay. Thanks Ryan and Thale for an amazing holiday.

Time of my life!
5/5

We went on a 10 day safari with Ryan, Thale and their son Felix. We started in Johannesburg, and went to Kruger National Park, then Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve, and ended up In Durban.

The service level was great! Ryan is a very skilled guide, and knows everything about the nature and all the animals. He knows where to spot all the animals, and we got to see the big 5, and lots of other stuff. Ryan could tell facts and stories about everything we saw. He can answer any question regarding wildlife. He's a true expert.

Thale and Ryan also did a great job taking care of us. They had full control of all the arrangements regarding accommodations, activities and logistics. They also provided good meals every night.

Everything was well planned, accommodation, meals, drives around the parks. They took good care of us from the moment they picked us up at the airport in Johannesburg, until the drop off at Durban airport. And they are really nice crowd to travel with. The whole family are very friendly and professional! It was without a doubt the best 10 days I've had on holiday ever.Thank you so much, Thale and Ryan(and little Felix)!

If you want a personal safari experience instead of a big group, Wild Planet Safari is definitively for you!

Probably the best 3-day Kruger Safari available on SafariBookings
5/5

Broadly, the Safari was as described on the website. Minor adjustments here and there based on weather/availability etc. Adrian is a terrific guide who's extremely knowledgeable and is also a good cook. Lungisani and Benjamin were also really helpful. Lungisani is pretty good at spotting animals from a moving car. We were able to view the Big 5 (leopard on the night drive conducted by Kruger) as well as many other prominent fauna in the park. All in all, it was a great experience.

Great trip to Kruger
5/5

From start to finish, our trip was very well organised. Our guide was Ryan, a very personable chap who has a wealth of knowledge and knows what he is doing. His helper, Lungisani, also worked hard to make our experience as enjoyable as possible. As a result, it was a very full trip in which everything went well.

Excelent!!! Our guides (Ryan and Lungi) were extremely attentive and are very knowledgeable.
5/5

communication was good, but could have provided the phone guide that would in search at the hotel, because the day before we wanted to confirm the time and send email, but we had no response.
Ryan cared about what we wanted to eat and what kind of animals we wanted to see.

Excellent and unforgettable!!!..
5/5

We have really enjoyed our unforgettable experiences in a 4 days tour in the Kruger National Park. Our best thanks to Wild Planet Safari and our guide Adriaan for the excellent services provided. We were in a group of 04 people and our transport was made in a van vehicle (kind of mini bus). It was relatively new, quite reliable, very safe and equipped with air conditioning and all other items to make our tour extremely comfortable. We stayed in very clean and cozy rondwel huts in Skukuza and Satara Rest Camps. Adriaan is a highly qualified, extremely well informed, very professional, creative and most friendly guide. His first class guidance and competent support as well as the information, stories and jokes about the wildlife made the tour even more interesting. His assistant during the tour was Lucky, a quite helpful professional as well. Wild Planet Safari is not apparently a big company, but its services are provided on a highly personalized basis as a big difference in its favor. I strongly recommend its services and for any further information please contact me.

We had an unforgettable and wonderful time. Everyone shoud have the opportunity to know this part of Africa.
