Serious, organized, punctual and competent.
My partner and I organized Safaris at Kruger National Park with Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris.
We immediately felt at ease starting from the booking, because they responded very quickly to emails and always in a polite and efficient manner.
After that, during the Safaris it was even better, always punctual, attentive to details, professional, prepared and friendly guides.
I would recommend everyone to organize tours with them!

Top tour guide for the Kruger Park
Very knowledgable guide, thus the Big Give animals discovered within 2.5 hours of our trip! We had a fantastic Kruger experience.

Professional and delivered as advertised
We retained Elephant Herd for both airport transfers and for guided tours and safaris on five of the days we spent in and around Kruger. While we did have an initial hiccup regarding an Elephant Herd trainee driver, each tour and safari exceeded our expectations primarily because of the skill, professionalism and communication of our primary guide whose name - Remember - we will doubtless remember. Even other guides from competing firms stopped while on safari to ask advice or get recommendations from Remember. We didn't get to know another guide named Patrick due to only seeing him as our transfer driver back to the airport, but in that drive, he too demonstrated the knowledge and expertise we will now come to expect from Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris.

The maker of holiday dreams
Can’t recommend Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris enough. Very responsive before we flew out and super helpful with any queries we had. The accommodation we stayed in was truly amazing and luxurious. It was great to meet Bev in person and spend some time with her. Our whole time in and around Kruger ran smoothly. We managed to see all of the Big Five and lots more besides. We were very sad when our time in Kruger was over, but have already been in contact with Bev to help arrange our 2025 trip. Thank you for giving us so many fabulous memories.

Patient and amazing service from the tour guides.
Our experience with Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris was absolutely unforgettable!
ImFrom the moment we booked, the team was professional and attentive.
The guide (don’t remember his name) was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and local ecosystem, ensuring we spotted elephants, lions, and even a rare leopard. The vehicles were comfortable, and the entire tour felt safe and well-organized. Seeing the elephant herds up close in their natural habitat was breathtaking—an experience we’ll treasure forever. I highly recommend this company for anyone seeking an authentic and well-run safari adventure and sightseeing.
Bhekifa was our Pano Guide and he also provided very good service, he was patient and amazing as well.

The safari was great but service could have been better
We were fetched by the driver (Smiley) At 4:30 in the morning, he was driving so fast on a dirt road it felt uncomfortable.
Going from our hotel (Higrove) to the Kruger lodge where he was fetching other passengers - he stopped about 5 times as he was speeding the car top kept opening
He was good in knowing where the animals were and we saw 4/5 big 5's.
The only issue was that he was condescending in his responses to whenever we asked a question which I found disrespectful
My partner gave him R100 as a tip at the end of the tour - his response was that half a bread is better than nothing... can you imagine post a terrible service he gave us
So yes - he was great in getting the animals but customer service could improve
