Sam, is excellent. We decided to book another full day in Kruger and asked for him again.
Very prompt and helpful. Used them twice. Will definitely use them again.

The operator was very friendly and helpful.
Our tour guides was extremely knowledgeable. Bhekifa in particular did a magnificent job. He read the animal pawprints on the ground and found all the animals we wanted to see. He was friendly and even used our phone to get the best pictures of everything we saw.
Best safari so far.

Easy to work with
We used Elephant Heard for our 4 day safari at Kruger park. Bev was our contact from booking all the way though our stay. We really liked that they were a local company and available the whole trip if we had any questions or issues, Bev even picked us up from the airport. From pick up to drop off, everything was taken care of, we didn't have to worry about any logistical details. My family and I typically travel independently, but for the safari it was nice to just relax and take in all of the sites. This experience exceeded my expectations, I still can't believe the abundance of animals there are in the park. Lastly, it was a great value, our Lodging at the Zarafa was beautiful and included all the meals, they were delicious and the service was first class.

Excellent tour, knowlguide. Big 5 all seen
We booked with Elephant herd tours on recommendation of our Airbnb host. They were responsive and contacted us immediately. Though not cheapest, they wre happy to pick us up from our accommodation which was importantfor us. Our guide Vobu arrived on time. We made the kruger gates on time for the 6am open and were lucky to see the big 5 though of course this isn't guaranteed. Our guide was super knowledgeable and the elephant herd team have an advantage working with their team of other guides to gives their clients the best chance to see the animals. We chose the morning half day tour as our party included younger kids. It was freezing in the early hours but an awesome experience

Incredibly professional and knowledgeable
We had 2 all-day safaris with Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris at the Kruger National Park.
Our guide, Remember, was prompt, courteous and provided warm blankets for us to use during the chilly early morning start to our excursions. He is exceptionally knowledgeable on all aspects of both the wildlife and the terrain and his commentary was not only informative but very funny! I’ll never forget “the ugly five” when we saw warthogs and hyenas 🤣🤣🤣
We were privileged to see ALL of the Big 5 too including the elusive white rhinos and a leopard after a kill. We had extremely close and exciting encounters with 2 lionesses and numerous herds of elephant and Cape buffalo! Utterly breathtaking!!
He was exceptionally kind and deeply concerned when our friends’ teenage son had a seizure in the safari vehicle while on our 2nd day out in the park and radioed ahead so we could be met by a closed vehicle to take us back to our resort earlier than expected.
This tour group is top notch and we couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Brandon is great with our requests and planned our bookings in three different lodges .
It was first time for our family of three visiting Kruger park areas from Vancouver BC Canada. We like to learn the local culture and do safari . Brandon ‘ company helped us booked lodges with great accommodation, food and experienced safari guides. He also provide us one of the best local safari guide to Kruger park. The half day in Kruger park , our guide already showed us the big five. It gave us a glimpse of what we will see more on the private reserve of other lodges.
It was truly amazing experience for our first S Africa trip.
