Fascinating country for its human life and wildlife!

The safaris were amazing! I saw the Big Five plus so much more. Just being in the vibration of the wild is life changing. I was there for a week and would suggest two 3-4 night stays in different camps/lodges to maximize locations and sitings but not have to move around too much.

We spend 4 nights at the Simbavati River Lodge in a very luxurious tent. The team was absolutely friendly and helpful and we enjoyed every minute. Going out into the bush twice a day was the best. We learned so much from Martin and Stiff and saw next to the Big 5 so much more!
Thank you!!

We had the most amazing time visiting South Africa. We used Safari Booking to book our Kruger Safari and it was the highlight of our whole visit. We did a 2 night, 3 day trip with 4 game drives at sunrise and sunset. We saw the big 5 almost twice and the guides were fantastic. The place was beautiful and we had the most wonderful time speaking to people and getting to know the different places.

It's been my second time in South Africa and I'm sure it won't be the last!
This country has a vibrant culture. I love everything about SA: the people are super friendly, the food is delicious, the places are wonderful and so on. I highly recommend a visit to everyone who is looking for some adventure and a unique experience. This country has a lot to offer!
My experience on the safari will be unforgettable. Unfortunately I didn't get to see the lions, but this won't make my experience less memorable - I guess this is my excuse to come back again :)
The guides were doing their best to give us the best moments with a lot to teach and share. They were all very punctual and nice.
I did the one-day-tour in the Kruger and two days in the Greater Kruger. Next time I'll choose more days in the Kruger , the park is huge and deserves more attention.
My accommodation couldn't have been better. I spent four nights at the African
Read more Rock Lodge and they nailed it!!! They were awesome!
Thanks a lot Shinzelle for the great job! And Safari bookings for helping us find the best options.

First of all, the guys from the agency are veey nice and very responsive. We had a small issue for coming back from Kruger due to X-Mas and they managed to find a solution in due time.
As for the accomodation, it was just perfect. The managers there were very welcoming and offered all their support for a great safari experience.
Kruger needs no more description since I think that it is one of the greatest national parks in SA. I was lucky to see all the big 5 and much more.

A vibrant nexus where the warmth of the welcome is only eclipsed by the grandeur of the landscape.

Walking on table top mountain drinking in stunning views, followed by swimming in two oceans and watching penguins and drinking wine in incredible landscapes. All things we did as well as enjoying incredible food and the warmth of the welcomes in Cape Town.
Up country we were blown any by the glory of Victoria falls and enjoyed knowledgeable tour guides on safari.
