Helpful and cheery, variable in communications
4/5

We did self cater, self drive to Kruger.
Service was helpful and upbeat. Booking consultant was very enthusiastic and friendly. Information regarding the cost conservation fees for foreigners could have been more specific. Generally, given we had an unfortunate cancellation the outcome has been favourable and Kruger.com assisted in the credit.

We enjoyed our Kruger visit.

Service, timeliness, and courtesy brings us back to Bongani Mountain Lodge.
5/5

Bjorn assisted us with clear communication and was always at the ready to assist us with our return to Bongani Mountain Lodge, our home away from home. The food, entertainment, and game drives were more than we expected, as were the manager and staff. We spent time working at the primary school in the nearby village of Lepesi and were assisted in our efforts by management at the lodge. It is clear to us that our experience was life changing. What a blessing to be in Africa and enjoying the people and the animals!

Awesome holiday
5/5

Communication from the beginning with Anthea was excellent, we planned our trip months in advance & were kept up to date throughout. she listened to everything we asked for & tailor made our trip which turned out to be one of our best ever at Ulusaba. All our transfers arrived on time & drivers were very polite & friendly. Accommodation was first class. The cost was comparable to other companies & we are already planning a return trip to South Africa only this time to see the garden route & will definitely use them again

Andy Saidy made fantasies come to life!
5/5

I relied completely on KrugerPark.com, and especially Andy Saidy to put together my holiday ... and I was not disappointed! Everything I had dreamed and fantasized about Africa came true and was brought to life. From the exceptional staff at every lodge I visited, the literal "works of art" that were my dinner plates, the 5 Star accommodations, to the animals, animals, animals! And I won't even attempt to describe the beauty of Africa itself! My transfers were all handled smoothly, efficiently and with a great deal of aplomb due to the drivers being so well informed with not only the locale, but also about my itinerary, timing, and destinations.

Not only did I see the Big 5 many times, but had the opportunity to see a Leopard relaxing after having finished her meal for the day, several Pride of Lion, 2 young male Giraffe toughing it out with each other, but Zebra, Hippo, Giraffe, Crocodile, Kudu, and too many others to mention. Animals I didn't even know existed!

If you have longed for a lifetime to see even a small part of Africa as I had, or even if you're simply contemplating someplace new to visit, I highly recommend KrugerPark.com and Andy Saidy with the utmost of confidence that your Safari will be a stunning success and will leave you with memories that will last a lifetime!

Awful experience - will never use this company again
1/5

After arriving from a fabulous trip in Masai in Kenya which was exemplorary - Kruger experience in terms of accomodation and service whilst trying to resolve the situation was disappointing to say the least. We had spent almost 10k CAD for 6 people and after seeing where we were accomodated (between a caravan park and gas station) and that we would be required to spend most of our family time in this dump (between 2 drives - we decided to leave after 10 minutes of arriving. Our kids would not even sleep on the beds provide in teh chalets (size of a washroom) and washrooms and shower were pathetic (unlike pictures sent to us).
People i dealt with were Bjorn Van Huyssteen and Alexis Boshoff amongst many others...
What a wate of 100 000 ZAR
Spent 2 days driving back to JHB as we could not get a return flight and miscommunication wth tour operator. Alos promised a refund which unsurprisingly we were later informed after numerous call - that they will not refund a cent.
Emabarrassed as a South African who previously spoke highly of SA and services offered here. Never again will i use this company or anyone assocaited with them. Especially as they did not even have an idea of whwre we were staying or never visisted thsi place.
Was also advised that ony after payment was made that airport taxes will be an additional 17% of total package already paid...
BTW - 3 star meal and wine - meant shhopping at local store and cooking in a common kitchen and then carrying your own chairs to "dining area" about 400m away..

Amazing experience
5/5

We cannot fault the holiday we had in Kruger. Everything about it was fantastic. All the stress was taken out of it as everything was organised for us, we just had to turn up! It was excellent value for money! Accommodation was comfortable and clean, the safari guides were passionate and knowledgeable and happy to accommodate anything we needed. They knew where to take us to get the most out of our safaris and what we saw in Kruger Park far exceeded anyone's expectations. It was really the trip of a lifetime and we will never forget it. Thank you to everyone involved in making it so memorable, we can't name everyone but thank you to Andy Saidy all your help organising and dealing with all our queries.

Amusing experience
4/5

We liked the trip. It was a good and different experience. But we needed vacations after that "Vacations". Perhaps we did a lot in few days so it was a little wearisome ...
All the guides, drivers, chefs, waitresses were very kind.

Had an amazing time at Kruger Park. Booking service had great communication and recommendations. Our lodging was beautiful and the staff was wonderful. Our guide was very experienced with tracking animals and we had a wonderful experience seeing all the animals.

It was an overall fantastic experience, starting from the booking until stay and activities.
5/5

I had an excellent communication with the operator to find out what really will meet my expectations. Also the provided documents with all booking details and additional information were quite appetizing the future travel. At the lodge they offered a very warm welcome, fine accomodtion far out in the bush, good meals and service. The game drives with the well experienced tour-guides where really amazing, brilliant sightings and interesting information about flora and fauna. I can highly recomend it.
