It's amazing and will come back again.
Everything was so good.:) my two little ones really enjoyed. Food was delicious, if Agent would advise all transport options would be perfect, as we did not realise there's a small flight to Safaris instead of 6 hours shuttle.
An amazing country.
We love South Africa because of the friendly people everywhere, the face that the landscape seems to change almost every hour when you travel through the country, the wildlife, the climate, the excellent food and the prices of food and drinks (compared to the Netherlands)
It was our second visit and for sure we will go back again. We love going there when it gets colder in the Netherlands and it is spring/summer in South Africa.

South Africa is about colours, vibrations, diversity
In Kruger Park was my first safari. Great park, lots of animals, nature, smells and sounds. The evening safari is a cool experience.

Incredible experience, tremendous value
From the moment we left Johannesburg and made our way to the Greater Kruger Park area, we felt the familiar thrill of returning to a place that stirs something deep within us. The bush has a way of calling you back—and once again, it did not disappoint.
No sooner had we arrived to our Viva safari experience than we were off on our first game drive. It was immediate immersion. We witnessed the raw power of a leopard—his impala meal draped high in a tree, a stunning display of strength and survival. Not far off, we found him again, lounging in the branches, regal and relaxed, as if granting us a rare, personal audience. It was unforgettable.
As the sun dipped low, we were gifted one of the most breathtaking sunsets we’ve ever seen. The sky painted itself in warm, fiery hues—nature’s backdrop to the untamed beauty of the bush. Later that evening, we encountered a pride of lions intently watching a herd of water buffalo just beyond a game fence. The stare-down was intense. The buffalo, visibly agitated, held their ground. It was nature’s drama, unfolding before us.
Our days were filled with both game drives and bush walks—each one a masterclass in ecology. We learned so much, not only about the Big Five, but about the entire ecosystem, from industrious termites to vibrant birdlife. Every creature plays a role, and every moment taught us something new.

First time safari!
My first time to go on a safari so I flew to Kruger National Park from Cape Town via Johannesburg. I wanted to see and experience a "real" safari and I greatly enjoyed the experience. I would recommend everyone to at least try this once in your life, you will not regret it. Kruger National Park lived up to its hype. No need to splurge on luxury accommodations, inside the park, the safari is the same for everyone. "Hunting" the wild animals lets you enjoy the real Africa.
Beautiful country, beautiful animals and beautiful people!
South Africa was an experience of a lifetime. We did not see much of Johannesburg as we left for a safari in Sabi Sands. Learned a lot about the local culture and did a scenic tour of the canyon and waterfalls. Food was excellent everywhere we ate! The scenery is stunning. We had a guide every step of the way, so I am unsure of the safety of the area if we were on our own.

The entire experience was beyond our expectations!
Our entire trip was beyond our expectations! Our guide, Henry, was the best. He had fascinating stories and knowledge about the birds and animals. The accommodations were lovely. We were fortunate to see many, many animals thanks to our guide's knowledge as to where to locate them. Overall, it was an amazing trip.

Amazing wildlife, food and a fantastic experience
We stayed at Rissington Inn and it was great. The time to the gates for Kruger national Park werent long and it was a really relaxing place to stay and still in nature. The Kruger game drives were great, we got to see the big 5 with a couple of close encounters (in a good way).
