Wonderful experience! Highly recommend!
Clear indication and hints received upfront. Payment went also flawlessly in two tranches. Recommendations about what to pack were also given.
We were picked up at OR Tambo airport as expected, dropped at Hazyview meeting point after around 5 hours(return the same). Travel conditions were good. From Hazyview meeting point we were picked up by the lodge staff and taken to the lodge to have the check in done. Big rooms or big tents were available. Don't expect something small. Even the tents are huge, like a small house with everything in it. Dinner and breakfast included, and also two nights of accommodation. Lodge staff was nice.
There were two game drives included. The first for about 4 hours, and the second for about 8 hours. The experience was lovely. This is why we took also the third optional game drive as well for the last day.
Throughout the game drives the guides/drivers were very attentive with us, in order to make sure that we see everything that we can in the park. We were quite lucky and we saw all the rare animals, including the big five as well: elephant, rhino, hyena, giraffe, buffalo, lion, leopard, cheetah, zebra, monkey, impala, kudu, hippo, crocodile, various birds, etc.
I recommend to have windproof and rain clothes. Even if it is warm, the wind is quite powerful.

South Africa is best place ever!!!
I was expecting this trip to South Africa for a long time, so I was very thrilled once I arrived! I can say now after spending 15 days over there that the reality of South Africa is way better than my expectations! The experience in Kruger Park was wonderful; to see the wild life really near to me, the lights, the colors… all the big 5 and not just once! I will stop to say thank you to our guide Remember! And then the ocean with all its animals, and the scenic route of Cpe Town, the food and the people in the south but also in the north in Johannesburg. All was so overwhelming that I cried when I was about to take my plane back in Europe! Thanks South Africa for these precious memories!

Review about Kruger National Park by Rizzolo Serena
Kruger Park is such a beauty! We did 3 safari there and all the time we experienced a set of emotions that was unimaginable. See elephants, tibia, lions, buffalos and even a leopard so near to us was magnificent! And lights and colors there are something that even the best filters in the world cannot give to you! You have to try to say it!

Lacked detailed communication but was a good trip.
We booked a 1 day trip to Selous from Zanzibar.
- Ask for discount right away. This tour was more expensive than others.
- Communication was prompt but lacked details about the trip. I like to know details about what happens before and during safari. Especially because I had children with us.
Our driver was prompt and professional (from One Africa). He took us to the airport cafe Johazi where we had breakfast (coffee and croissant) as we waited for our other members. They then presented us with the ticket and there were flights of 13 people per flight going to Selous. The 8hrs start when you land in Selous. Bathrooms are available at the airport. While on safari there are two stops planned. 1 for coffee and 1 for lunch. Bathrooms are going behind the bushes. There is one port o potty at lunch. Guides have waters and soda in each Jeep. We saw many animals but no lion. Apparently lions are easier to see at Mikumi.
Overall the tour I booked was fun and smooth but I wonder if I could have booked the same tour through someone with more details about the tour. Then I would have felt more at ease about what to expect.

Good time
They drove safely and looked for many animals. The food was very tasty and we had a great time, even though we didn't get to see all the big5, it was still a great time to come back to this tour company and safari!

BEST GUIDE EVER
Everything was so smooth and perfect from start to finish! Communicated through WhatsApp to answer all my questions before booking, adapted the tour to my desire and my flights. But the best part of the tour was our guide Ayubu Kileo!!! He made sure we had the best view of the animals. He was always getting our car the closest and moved with the animals. He would stop whenever we wanted to take pictures. He would indulge in our photoshoots and take incredible photos of us! He always got us everywhere on time even though we were always late (for taking pictures).
He gave us so many insights and anecdotes on the animals or the parcs!
This experience was magical and I can’t recommend him enough!!!
