Red Africa Excelled in Providing a High Quality Safari, Filled with Wonderful Adventure
Our safari to Kruger NP with Red Africa was exceptionally wonderful! Everything went very smoothly and we were very professionally taken care of in every detail, from our initial pickup in Johannesburg, to our drop-off again. Jaco, our driver and top-notch expert on "all things Kruger and Big 5 + Wildlife", was a wonderful fellow to spend much time with as we traveled around. He is a veritable "fount of information" that makes everything so much more meaningful. The tour provided a wide variety of experiences, locations, and perspectives. We loved every minute of it.
The eco-lodge that was our accommodation in Hazyview was terrific, a luxury resort itself, and they accommodate crazy safari daily schedules very well, especially the pre-dawn starts to the day.
Keegan, our main game-drive driver and guide, was also excellent. He knows the park and the animals down to the smallest detail and has such an infectious enthusiasm for showing visitors as much as he can, with good instincts on where to look for the game. Both Jaco and Keegan truly love their jobs, which makes travel with them such a joy.
Red Africa was a great company to work with. All communications were well-handled, all schedules were promptly kept, and because of all we saw and experienced, the whole experience felt "priceless". We are blessed to be able to have this opportunity, and to see so many wonderful animals in the wild (all Big 5, plus dozens more!) behaving the way they were created to be. We also had a great time at the elephant reserve, interacting in neat ways with elephants in ways you cannot in the bush. Our tour of the Panorama Route and a boat ride was another way to see certain animals and just soak in and enjoy the scenery of Drakensberg Mountains and a piece of South Africa.
It is important to consider carefully a tour company for a safari in South Africa. You'll be together for several days and want just the perfect experience. We highly recommend Red Africa to be that company. The memories are going to last forever for us.

Red Africa Safaris excelled all our dreams of a Kruger Park African Safari, absolutely fantastic !!
We experienced a fantastic holiday with Red Africa Safaris. Amelia was totally flexible and planned our 4 night trip to include everything that we required.
We stayed in a fantastic house in Hazyview, as well as a night in the Kruger Park, in addition to our days in the park we also spent a day travelling the Panoramic View, which included the breath taking Blyde River Canyon.
Jaco went way and beyond to ensure that our trip was to perfection, he is an extremely professional host / tour guide and excellent cook, he catered for all our needs.
Keegan was an exceptional game guide with an encyclopaedic knowledge of the game and birds; in addition to the Big Five he also found us some wild dogs.
One Day when we return, we will definitely be using Red Africa Safari again.

Eficient and resolutive, very profesional
We had to postpone our trip from 2020 because of the pandemic and they respect the money advanced at the time for our final price this summer. All communications with them have been very fluent and profressionals, very detailed information regarding any issue that was requested from our side.
Totally worth it
We went on a 3-week trip to 4 different countries in Africa and this was by far the best part of our trip. Our tour guide, Jaco, was amazing. He was obviously so passionate about the animals and the environment and he made everything so exciting for us and was full of information.
We did the Panorama Route, which was gorgeous, I'm so glad we did it, but we did get really lucky with weather the entire time. We also got crazy lucky with animal viewings so I'm very grateful for that (not that the companies can control that), but Jaco was determined to get us some good views on our way out of the park and we got a truly spectacular experience surrounded by elephants.
I would 1000% recommend this, I would do it again, I've told all my friends and family to go, it was so worth it and then some.

Amazing trip with excellent guides
Having booked a guided tour with Red African Safari was the best decision for us as a family (Blyde River Panorama Tour and Kruger). It was well-organised in advance and everything turned out just as planned. We had excellent guides who knew so much about the country's history, politics and especially the wild life. We always felt safe and were taken care of so well. It almost felt like family :-) We are so thankful for this amazing time and will treasure every single moment!
Thanks to Jaco and Trevor!! You are the best!
Amazing
Our tour guide Jaco was amazing. He went above and beyond our expectations. We had an incredible time.

An exciting experience
We loved traveling with Jaco: we visited the Panorama route and spent 3 days in the Kruger park. Jaco has been a special guide, so passionate and caring. He is very expert and explained us a lot of things about wildlife and South African history and culture. Last but not least, he has been a very special chef cooking delicious vegan meals on open fire.
We will definitely book another trip with Red Africa Safaris in the future hoping to be guided by him again!
