Accommodating
5/5

Very last minute, we decided to add a Safari to our South Africa vacation. I found Kruger Safari online and sent an inquiry. The response time was very quick and I was given several options at different price points. We had to change the dates we wanted to go. We were sent more travel options. Wayne was very quick in answering my questions or any concerns I had. Even after booking the trip, he continued to answer questions about our time in South Africa. When we checked into the hotel, immediately an email was sent making sure we were happy with our choice. It really was nice dealing with a company that was available to us and wanted to make certain we were pleased. Definitely would use them again!

5/5

I came with my husband and 3 others and we had a fantastic time. From the moment we arrived until the time we left there was excellence. The service we received was stellar and the price we paid was worth the way we were taken care of. The food was also great. Each time we needed assistance it arrived quickly.

Thank you to the entire staff. The Watkins (Montgomery, AL)

Great Reservation Team
5/5

I had some issues booking with Viva Safari’s directly but The Kruger Safari Co made all issues disappear with their speedy responses, friendly and informative staff who answered any and all questions I had. Wayne was great to deal with throughout the whole process. The tour itself was a great success and I would recommend it to anyone.

5/5

Wayne was great.
He arranged our transfer from JNB to our lodge and back!
Greenfire Lodge was amazing, with well maintained facilities, friendly staff and especially knowledgeable guides (shout-out to Given!).
We saw 4 of the big 5 (rhinos, éléphants, buffalos and leopard)!

Wonderful experience! Highly recommend!
5/5

I was looking for a last minute safari and knew I would have limit options. Wayne responded to my inquiry very quickly with options that were still available. I decided on Kapama Southern Camp. He provided thorough information about the safari and even went out of his way to respond after business hours answering my questions! The safari was the highlight of my trip and one of my favorite things I’ve ever done in my 30+ countries visited. I can’t recommend Wayne and the Kruger Safari Co. enough to help book a safari. You won’t regret it!

Fantastic short safari
5/5

I booked a 2 night safari from Johannesburg, staying at greenfire and I had the time of my life. The transfers from my hotel in Johannesburg to the lodge gate, and back again were excellent and most importantly easy. The lodge itself was brilliant (12 out 10 recommend greenfire). Communication with Wayne was great, he was responsive and checked in on me during my stay. I was travelling for work so didn't want to think too hard over the weekend and Wayne and the team ment it was a wonderful weekend.

Great communicators and brilliant hosts
5/5

The staff and guides were the stand out things at the lodge, don’t get me wrong, the lodge itself is incredibly impressive with fantastic rooms, but it wouldn’t be anything without great service. All the staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. Our guide, Victor, was brilliant, his knowledge of the area was second to none, his ability to see the smallest track on the side of the road or hear a warning cry from birds far away meant we didn’t miss a thing. If you want a special experience on safari then you this is the place for you.

Unforgettable Safari Adventure: Perfect Mix of Luxury and Authenticity
5/5

Our 5-day safari trip was absolutely incredible, thanks to the excellent planning by Kruger Safari Co. We stayed two nights at Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge and two nights at Umkumbe Safari Lodge, both offering unique experiences. The drive from Johannesburg was long but scenic, setting the tone for our adventure.

Hoyo Hoyo exceeded all expectations. The service was impeccable, the staff extremely kind and attentive. With spotless grounds and a waterhole right in front of the dining area, we had the privilege of watching wildlife up close during meals. The game drives with Victor were fantastic, and we saw a variety of animals, including elephants, zebras, giraffes, and even leopards.

Umkumbe Safari Lodge had a more family-friendly atmosphere. The highlight here was our guide, Jessica, who was so knowledgeable and ensured we saw most of the Big Five, except for lions. The lodge wasn’t as luxurious as Hoyo Hoyo, and the food options were somewhat limited, but the location right by the river more than made up for it. The bush walk was a great experience.

A special thanks to Wayne from Kruger Safari Co. who handled everything so smoothly, even accommodating a last-minute change in plans. We’d book with them again in a heartbeat!
