Absolutely fantastic; saw all the animals we wanted and great lodge experience!
Our ranger Celton and tracker Justice at the Kapama River Lodge were the absolute best. The lodge itself was fantastic in every way (especially the food), and those two went above and beyond to make the game drives fun and have us see all the animals! Can't speak positively enough about the entire experience!

Great experience!
I booked my safari trip with PaperJet Travel and they were super professional. Justin helped me a lot planning my stay and everything worked perfectly. The lodge (&Beyond Kirkman's Kamp) was very comfortable, with the whole staff always trying to make you feel at home. The food, the game drives, the small surprises... absolutely nothing to complain.

Absolutely worth it! Wonderful wild life
I loved johan’s caring and prof attitude. He helped us organizing ever detail. We were very happy with the overall experience. The food was absolutely incredible! We personally liked more Sabi Sands. We did not like the guide we had the first day of the safari, JC i think. We really liked the blonde girl the second Day, apologies I forgot her name. Overall very happy and the safari is really worth it!

Amazing up close encounters with all the wildlife in Kruger
The wildlife was spectacular and very exciting to discover during our game drives and bush walk. We had excellent luck and a managed to see the big five, plus many more animals during our two days at Kruger.
The weather was great and the temperatures were hot, hitting close to 40C when we arrived at Kruger.
Our room was clean, simple, and comfortable. The air conditioner worked well and kept us cool during the day.
Food offered at the Kruger restaurant was good, but the meals our guide cooked for us were far better, and much healthier!
Our guide was phenomenal and taught us many things along the way from Joburg to Kruger, along the Panorama route. He was extremely knowledgeable, very kind and a pleasure to talk with.
Our guides van was also very spacious and comfortable.
The most exciting part of the trip was when our guide offered a small detour on our way out of the park. We ended up waiting around at Panic Lake for ahout 20 minutes when suddenly a Jaguar appeared from the treed and began stalking a Waterbuck. She kept up on a fallen tree to strike, but quickly backed down when she realized the buck was far too big.
Overall we had an excellent time and have no complaints. We would certainly use our guide Jaco, and our tour company, Red Africa Safaris again.

An amazing experience that I wil never forget.
Our journey was amazing, we saw a lot of animals and all of the guides was very eager to tell if there was one you didn't know about or if you wanted to know more. Everything from transfer, game vehicles, dining etc was super professional. The atmosphere was a bit disturbed when there was a lot of cars around the animals, although it wasn't very often. A must when in SA!

Amazing Experience
We stayed for 4 days/ 3 nights in a premier suite at Lukimbi Lodge. All of the staff went above and beyond to make our stay special. Our Guide Werner was the best. He is a skilled driver and shared his extensive knowledge of the wildlife and our surroundings. We saw the Big 5 and so much more. Our Tracker KK, Empress, Kernel, Meaghan and all of the staff were friendly and attentive. We enjoyed the meals and happy hour with all of the guides. The suite was beautiful and made up twice daily. We enjoyed our private pool looking out over the African bush. Kruger National Park is an absolute treasure!

A good guide makes the difference. Some days were absolutely great!
We had two great guides, who were knowledgable, took the time to explain things, stopped when we wanted to, etc. And we had two guides that were quite terrible, pretty much making what could have been an excellent day, quite a frustrated one.
Please take the time to evaluate guides, train them, etc.
Overall our experience was quite good, with all the other apects of the trip.

The best trip of my life
This was an amazing trip. The accommodations were the exact mix we were looking for, something that let us stay in close proximity of the animals but still with reasonable protections. We saw almost every animal we'd ever wanted to, thanks in large part to a great guide, Chris, of Wild Planet Safaris. The food also gave us a taste of some genuine South African dishes with reminders of home, too.
Highly-recommended!!
