Sabi Sands was Magnificant!
We stayed at Idube game lodge for our Sabi Sands adventure. Everything exceeded our expectations (and we are picky folks). The lodge staff, the rangers and trackers, and the culinary experts were all outstanding. Everyone was friendly and outgoing. If you wanted privacy, you could easily retreat to your room and deck. September was perfect for temperatures (cool mornings and hot afternoons) and animal encounters. Not a good time of year for birding, but we knew that going in. Saw everything we wanted to and more. Would highly recommend this lodge. As they say, "people make the difference"....they definitely did.

The experience of wildlife is something never to be forgotten, highlights every day, and night.
Saw and learnt lots, with comfortable, clean and well appointed camps to enjoy overnight. The company we booked with (Wild Planet Safari) was efficient, well equipped and also personal in our dealings with them. I would recommend them to others.

Most memorable African safari of our lives.

You must visit South Africa!
I went to South Africa with my boyfriend for our first safari and as our first "overseas trip" as well, so we were very excited, but we didn't know ecxatly what to expect. Well, everything surprised us in a very positive way. We visited the Kruger National Park and had the unique opportunity to see many of the animals we knew only throught the Discovery Channel very close! We saw all the Big 5 and many wonderful animals more (wild dogs, hienas, hippos, birds, zebras, giraffs, impalas, kudus...). All the game drives we did were fantastics! Besides that, the accomodations were very confortable, the food was delightful and our guide was amazing, sharing all his knowledge and being able to find all the animals.
Everything was much better than I could expect. I surly recomend Wildlife Safaris! :)

Is a great safari destination thanks to Kruger park as explained before, moreover outside the park the are the most beautiful and varying sceneries of the world. (I highly recommend Garden route)
A great visit!
We lucked out with the early Spring weather and a full moon, even a bit of smoke to glorify the dawn ride sunrises; and the Tydon safari crew were enthusiastic and helpful to a T.... Bouquets to Liesl for her off-roading and the pile of hyena cubs! We got up close with so many species! Thank you.

Wounderful wildlife! Modern Africa.
The Trip at all was wounderful. We saw a huge variation of Wildlife and svenery. The weather was refreshing and not as hot as expected.
Blend of urban, country and wild.
We enjoyed the panorama of the life, culture and natural beauty of South Africa. We enjoyed Cape Town's urban charm, Johannesburg's history and diversity and Kruger's wild life.
We needed more time in Kruger Park to see the full array of wild life. We were there for only 3 days and only in one private reserve, so we were not able to see the big five. The lions have moved out of Sabi Sabi and Buffaloes were not native to this reserve.
Excellent, seeing aminals in their own enviorement looking so healthy is a beautiful thing
Loved all of it... I was a little worried when leaving Australia not knowing what to expect, but once we met our guides I knew we were in good hands...I feel the guides do make the trip they were full of information and knew so much about their country and wildlife...We stayed in tents most of the time that were easy to put up and pull down and the beds were comfortable...what more can you expect on a safari other than good food and we sure did have that.
Thanks for a trip I'll never forget..

The big five, all before breakfast.
Out South Africa holiday and safari were incredible. We had the sunset safari, the early morning and afternoon game drives and hoped to see a few of the big five. We had great tour guides who knew the terrain and where to find the creatures, great communication between the guides sharing information about sightings as well. We saw impressive animals on every outing including all of the big five before breakfast one morning. Job well done.
We were treated very well by our tour operators and lodging staff. The food supplied as part of our tour plentiful and tasty. Everyone was very kind and made us feel like we want to come back. Job well done!
