She is a great, friendly, life changing woman
5/5

Bev was our tour operator. She made everything about our trip so easy and stress free. She put a plan together for us and within the day, the plan and itinerary was complete, with room to change if required. We changed the accommodation and pick up times a few times. Non of this was an issue. We ended up staying with one of the accommodations recommended by this tour group. We are super happy that we did and we upgraded. The lodge was so accommodating and friendly. welcome drinks provided with morning and evening game drives. The value for money was fantastic. A little more pricier than we anticipated, but we would do this over again. Food was provided and coffees and drinks were provided on the game drives, which we were not aware of, so this was a lovely surprise. Communication between myself and Bev was amazing. One of the best interactions iv had with a tour group and i travel for a living. I would 100% use this tour group again. Value for money, service, reliability, communication and the tours were incredible.

Masillo was our safari guide. The nicest person! knowlegable+went extra mile to find sightings. 5🌟
5/5

Our safari guide Masillo provided us with a most memorable day. Always friendly, polite and willing to answer any question to test his knowledge(which is outstanding after the many years he has worked in Kruger Nat Park)
An absolute asset to Elephant Herd Safaris.
A day always to be remembered and part of it due to Masillo.

Knowledgeable, friendly and at hand
5/5

This was truly an experience worth the while. We had 5 French friends to show the big five and Kruger Park. Luckily we were told about Elephant Herd for on our own we would never encountered the big 5, twice, on 2 separate days. The guide/operator was very knowledgeable on all wildlife and poses a very keen eye to spot animals. I can truly recommend Elephant Herd tours and safaris. Thank you for an amazing 2 days.

Once in a lifetime experience
5/5

My partner and I had a game drive with Bhekifa..where do I even begin...He said "today I'm going to find you a leopard" and he did spot one hanging on a tree from a distance, he was very educational, the best and patient game driver, he showed different types of birds, we also saw lions.. I don't know how to put in the right words but we had the best experience and it's all thanks to him...Bhekifa♡♡♡♡

Trevor was our driver/guide, courteous, knowledgeable and friendly
5/5

With an early morning start on a overcast morning which probably helped us in seeing a lot of game, we saw lions as we entered the park, and spotted leopard, feeding hyena, elephant, jackals and much more within an hour of our tour, our tour was basically all day 06h30 to 15h00. a very long day, luckily in the morning it was very overcast ,which probably also helped us spot game in abundance. I would probably have called it a day after the mid morning break as as it got hotter, animals became harder to spot and it was a bit tiring but as an experience in the Kruger it was excellent and would totally recommend Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris. The cream on the cake was seeing a Hippo out of water lumbering towards our vehicle and then entering the dam close to our viewing position.

The best Safari operator anyone could ask for!!!
5/5

Elephant Herd was such an amazing operator, everything was great! The communication since i asked for a quote was fast and clear, also through the days we spent there (thanks Bev!). The guide that picked up us from te aiport and took care of us at arrival (Smiley) was friendly and helpful.
For the Safari we had the best guide, not kidding, THE BEST guide: Bekhifa! not only he was kind, friendly and funny he did everything he could to take us to find all the animals we wanted to see, including the big 5!! also rhinos, jiraffes, cheetas, hippos, zebras, etc. even birds, monkeys, owls... He could find any animal, he knew the park perfectly well and his vision through hthe landscape was incredible! The guy that drove us back to the airport also was great, don´t remember his name, we talked all the way back and made the ride comfortable.


Overall, i would rank them with a 100. Great service, value and reliability. I would recommend Elephant Herd everytime and would go back with them without a doubt! YOU MADE US HAVE A GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Life changing family vacation
5/5

Elephant herd was so conscientious to our needs from the first email till the last. Our guides were always listening to our needs for every decision. They were knowledgeable and friendly. The moments on safari we shared as a family were amazing. My kids still say it was their best vacation ever.
