Tydon Safaris-Highly Recommended
Went on a 4-day, 3-night safari with Tydon Safaris to Sabi Sands Preserve and Kruger National Park and had a wonderful time. The guides were knowledgable, nice, fun, laid back - just what you needed. The food and tents were fantastic. I have to say, i liked the type of safari done at Sabi Sands better than Kruger. It was truly off-roading and closer to nature. I saw everything i wanted to see and more!
i was picked up from my hotel in the joberg area and was driven solo to the tenting camp - glamping is more like it. it was a long drive, but not bad.
the drive back to Joberg airport was very scenic. we took the panoramic route.

It was incredible
The places we visited were gorgeous! We did the Safari with Enchanting and James, our guide, was really good. He was very confident about the roads, and give as a lot of information. He made us feel very comfortable during all trip. Edna helped us to choose the itinerary and she was very sensitive with as. Also the accommodation was great. We stayed at Serena in Ngorongoro NP and then in Tending Bush Camps at Serengueti NP. I strongly recommend Enchanting as a excellent company to do the Safari. Hope could do another Safari with them soon.

Amazing
We saw all the big 5 and more!. We had excellent accommodations, food, guides, it was a trip of a lifetime!. We would like to return when there is a bit more water in the delta and see the differences the delta has to offer. We really enjoyed ourselves and the adventure. TYto safaribookings and to Judy Burrows for setting the trip up for us

Exceeded all expectations.
Perfect in every way. That’s how we would describe the last seven days with Shemeji Safaris. Our guide was knowledgeable, kind, courteous and absolutely brilliant at spotting and identifying the birds and beasts we have seen. He prayed for our safari and boy were his prayers answered! We saw the big five: lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino. Elephants in abundance and one cheetah and rhino sighting. Two leopard watching experiences and several lion sightings. They were actually more than sightings as we were able to watch them stretch and yawn and go from place to place. Best of all was the time we saw a pride of lions comprising two males, four lionesses and six cubs. It’s hard to describe how beautiful it is to see these amazing creatures in their habitats. Our biggest thrill was seeing thousands and thousands of wildebeest and zebra herds migrating across the Serengeti. We were spellbound and quite emotional, it was so incredible. We also saw bat-eared foxes, two different types of jackal, lots of hippos, mongoose, gazelles, impala, hartebeest, waterbuck, baboons, monkeys, crocodiles and more. Giraffes became so commonplace we stopped photographing them. We were both intrigued by the birds. We saw eagles, kestrels, superb starlings, a kingfisher, stork, bustards, vultures and flamingoes. I think if anything took us most by surprise it was how all the animals coexisted and how often we saw impala and Thompson gazelles mingling with herds of wildebeest and zebra. And surrounded by storks and with other birds happily hitching a ride on any animal that would have them!
Our accommodation has been in tented lodges with bathrooms—all quite basic but spotless and the hospitality of the staff has been very touching. On arriving at our last camp they spotted our muddy sandals and insisted on cleaning them for us, returning them looking like brand new. One night we were in the mountains in Ngorongoro Crater and during dinner we were asked if we would like them to light the wood burning stove for us. It was at 2300 metres altitude and a little chilly so we were very grateful.
There is so much more I could say but this has been the trip of a lifetime.
