The conservation initiatives of the South Africans are well known and respected around the world. I have been in safaris in two other continents and they have not been as well organized and considerate of the wildlife. Everyone knows about the "Big Five", but there is a great respect for many of the other species with a clear objective to minimize animal-human conflict as much as possible while also confronting the very real and dire issue of poaching. The diversity of wildlife, as well, make the safari experience in Kruger a fascinating and amazing experience. Don't forget to bring your camera - you will have ample opportunity to take great shots! In terms of hotels and restaurant services, SA offers very good value for tourists. The standards are very high and the South Africans are very friendly people.

Every safari destination I have visited within South Africa has been truly worth it. The game reserves are generally of a very high standard. South Africa has around 1000 bird species, it's impossible to get bored.

I love the positive happy vibe of South Africa. The people are so happy, friendly and helpful and the country is just absolutely stunning! There is so much to offer people of all interests. There is plenty of nature for the nature lovers, there are loads of adventure activities for for the adrenaline junkies and there is so much amazing food and wine to be sampled.
I absolutely adored South Africa and am keen to return.

Having never experienced another country's safari offerings, perhaps I am too naive to comment. However, this is the best in the world. I am glad I came.

I think you can't really do better than South Africa for a safari/wildlife viewing. It has all the wildlife and scenery you'll want to see, and generally better infrastructure (transportation, accomodation, etc) than most other African countries.

South Africa is a beautiful place with lots to see and do. I thought it felt very safe too as long as you were on the tourist trail. I would think twice before venturing out alone at night in town though.
Great destinations to visit very reasonable prices and the locals make it a friendly place.

We saw everything from African penguins to zebras. In addition to Kruger, we were in the Cape, which has fantastic scenery and fascinating plant life. Naturally, not all of South Africa has a "bush vibe" since it's got lots of cities and a big population, but you can get that vibe in the parks if you pick the right places.

The size of Kruger is huge, we asked our guide how long would it take to tour the park in total. The answer- THREE WEEKS!!!!
