Etosha and Southern Swing as Camping Safaris were really great and unforgettable!
5/5

We made the three day Etosha Tour in February and the 7 Day Southern Swing Tour in March as Camping Safaris. Our guides were very well informed, cared for us and were excellent drivers and cooks. The equipment was fine, all our camping sites all right and nice, the service always really good. We enjoyed all the places we visited very much and had nice people travelling with us.
So we were lucky travelling with "Wild Dog Safaris" and can recommend it to everybody.
Maybe we visit Namibia again some time. If so we would love to make our bookings with your Company again.

Surprisingly affordable, comfortable and relaxing!
4/5

I have many great things to say about the safari that my friend and I did thru Kruger Park Travel. Our only concern and problem was that we had very little information on what was going to happen (pick up, travel times, departures). However, after a while we got used to it and had faith that everything would happen as promised. And it did! The drivers came, the hotels were lovely and the food was fantastic. We were surprised and delighted by the two different accommodations and our safari experiences. I would absolutely recommend Kruger Park Travel (and Mike in particular) but be sure to ask questions and get everything you think you may need before so you don't worry. Overall, a very positive experience. We hope to return for a longer trip.

Fantastic Tour, the best experience
5/5

We had a fantastic experience from the 1st email to the last day of our tour. Everyone that we spoke to or met were extremely helpful and did everything possible to give us what we wanted. We were very lucky that we had a small group of ten and from day 1 we all hot on so well. Our tour was fantastic and we saw all of the main attractions of South Africa plus more. Our guide was very professional but but joined in with all our silly game's. The extra tours were fantastic and we were lucky in the safari's that we saw 4 of the five big animals. We visited some beautiful places and would thoroughly recommend booking with Kruger Park Travel.

5/5

Right from the beginning, Naturreisen Uganda have been taken great care of us. They showed us their country in a way only Afircans can do!
We visited a lot of beautiful places in Kampala, Entebbe, Masaka and nearby. We experienced the beautiful nature of Uganda, enjoyed adorable trips to Lake Nabugabo and there are so many animals ! It's absolutley awesome!!

Best Africa Bucket List Trip, EVER!
5/5

Thierry, asante sana! I am writing this letter of appreciation, as I review the amazing 27 day, 6 African countries (SA, Rwanda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Kenya & Tanzania including Zanzibar) trip The Heritage Safari Company organized, booked & coordinated for us. I had many places I wanted to see (mostly read or seen on National Geographic over the past 10 years), stay (loved the permanent camps the best) and do – such as the Mountain Gorilla Trek, hunting with a bushmen tribe, a long list of sanctuaries, Conservatory Trust & National Parks- all were included! There were no glitches, all the flights, accommodations, safari company drivers and location coordination’s were all ‘bang on’ and perfect, everything I hoped for and more! Thierry did the changes with professionalism and grace. My African bucket list trip was complete and fabulous, thanks to you!

A superb experience giving us a wide view of western Uganda, it's scenery, animals and way of life!
5/5

The pre holiday communication was excellent, with emails and phone calls from Christina. We mostly followed a company tour of Western Uganda. After the first night in Kampala, with amazing views of lake Victoria, we travelled to Murchison Falls in the north west, then south through game parks and wonderful scenery.
Ismail, our guide really put himself out to make sure that we had a fantastic experience, and he succeeded. He was determined to find the leopard living in the ruins of the burnt out lodge. Success! The game drives were varied and the boat trips too gave us splendid animal and bird viewings as well as a visit to a fishing village and a local school. The chimpanzee trek, relatively easy walking through the forest, was well rewarded with the chimpanzees in the trees and then on the ground, so close to us. The gorilla trek over challenging terrain was a real highlight. It was worth every penny, a real MUST DO! Ismail looked after us so well, making sure that we were in the group for the nearest gorilla family because of our age etc. But the guides were all determined that we would all succeed and enjoy the experience. They had even carried one lady all the way back. I was determined that wouldn't be me!!!!!! The gorilla family of 10 or 11, with two babies, was so close. They moved around and entertained us for about an hour, then began to melt into the forest. They knew our time was up!!! What an experience. We were so pleased we made it.
The roads /tracks were an experience in themselves and we were so grateful for the land cruiser with its good suspension. Even so it was a rough old ride in places. A mini bus would not have been so good.
The lodges were all very comfortable, all with mosquito nets, and beautiful locations. The menus were limited because there were so few other guests. But the choice was adequate and the food very acceptable. The service was amazing throughout. All staff were so anxious to please, they insisted on cleaning our boots after the trek, and also ironed a couple of shirts I had washed. I even had an impromptu late birthday cake at the first lodge!
We were just thrilled with the whole trip. Many thanks to Ismail for his care and commitment in making it such a memorable adventure.

Great trip, experience of a life time
5/5

We asked for a photo safari and what did we get, a perfect safari with unbelievable photo opportunities. Serengeti proved to be everything we dreamed of and Maasai Legend Safaris made it all possible.
We'll be back.

A thoroughly memorable tryst with the nature
5/5

We booked a 5-member trip to the Kruger on a 3D/2N package. From the time of booking online till the moment we were dropped off at Johannesburg, the services were simply excellent. We booked this package about 7 or 10 days in advance and we were given the accommodation at the Perry's Hollow. Even though we were initially told there will be two rooms for us, the management gave us three spacious rooms which were equipped with all amenities. There were a couple of very nice restaurants adjacent to the hotel where we were served tasty Italian food. The main highlight of the tour is the Safari of course. We did 2 Morning and 2 afternoon safaris and by our 3rd Safari itself we got to see the Big-5. There were regular stops during the safari to have our breakfasts and lunch and there was ample supply of bottled water in our Jeep. Over all all of us enjoyed to a great extent on this tour and we will recommend this to any future Kruger Park enthusiast. Looking forward to visit again.. Cheers

This was an excellent experience that has inspired me to go on as many as safaris as possible.
5/5

I had an excellent time. Everything was as or better than expected. Our first Safari Team leader (I unfortunately forgot his name but believed it started with an M, maybe Mark?) was absolutely fantastic. He was a wealth of knowledge about the park, animals, and the outdoors in general. I enjoyed the nightly dinners and ambiance. This was an absolutely phenomenal trip. This was my first safari but will not be my last.

Great experience
4/5

We enjoyed our tour with Kenya Safari Planners. It was a good value, Peter was very helpful and responsive, and we really enjoyed the accommodations in Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli.
