Great experience with Krugerpark.com
5/5

Below is a letter I wrote to Anthea, the representative at Krugerpark.com, who put together a vacation package for me and my wife recently:

I'm writing to thank you for all your help in arranging a great vacation for me and my wife Jan. We had a great time at the GreenFire game lodge at greater Kruger Park and at the Dreamfields guesthouse in Hazyview. The GreenFire lodge was especially amazing, we saw the Big Five and many other animals, the owner, staff, meals and accommodations were great. I would recommend this to anyone. They also arranged for the all day ride through Kruger park which was included as part of booking through your agency, a nice change of pace that made us feel like royalty. I had a little trouble with all the steps due to my disability but you must have talked to them as they put me in the closest chalet with the shortest walk which helped a lot.

Everything went off without a hitch, I will be sure to recommend you and your agency to anyone I meet who may be considering SA as a vacation destination, thanks again for everything!

Overall, a very professional and smoothly run operation
5/5

The standards of accommodation and travel arranged for us were excellent and met all expectations. The Kruger park lodge at Hazyview was probably not the best choice for us on a short stay as it more suitable to long stay, self catering families than a couple on tour.
A minor discrepancy with a car rental company over billing still not resolved.

A personal and responsiv experience even with a phone call to England
4/5

The safari lived up to expectations although more background literature would have been helpful on locations of the lodges and comparisons between the facilities at each. The guide was very friendly and passionate about everything!

The most amazing trip of our lives.
5/5

Clive did an amazing job for us. We started out at a wonderful hotel in Cape Town - Table Bay Hotel. We had a wonderful guide for the day (Lynne Abrahams). All the transfers worked perfectly and we started our safari in Tanda Tula. The tented camp was wonderful. Forman was our guide and he told us everything about all the animals.

We then went to Chitwa Chitwa which was incredible. There are no words for the wonderful lodge - we stayed in the Chitwa House - thanks to Clive. The safaris and animal sitings were unbelievable. We will remember this trip for the rest of our lives and are hoping to come back. Armond was our guide and was so knowledgeable. The food was wonderful and we were served like royalty.

Hoping to come back soon. We left our hearts in South Africa.

Call it the Tourist tax on pricing, especially when you see what you get for it
2/5

The safari's and guides themselves were great. Thank God I only did the 2 night, 3 day stay. The accommodations are terrible! I'd met a couple on the way down that did the cheaper "tented" version. There experience was much better- and cleaner. For the price you pay, you'd think it would be a stunning room. It is not. The locals I know in Cape Town informed me what it actually costs a local to do this for them. They tourist price us of course and
I'd be fine if I had a beautiful room with an amazing bed and stunning accommodations. This was 2 dirty not even the size of single bed beds, no frame to them, no skirt on the bottom box spring showing it for all it's dirtiness, a dirty shower, dirty walls, old dirty looking towels (they were clean but the vibe felt gross), everything felt dirty. I paid almost $800 for those two nights & not really 3 days. I thought that would mean a beautiful sleep in beauty. We all chatted over dinner on the condition of what we got and felt the same. My recommendation- book a stunning hotel separately. Book the safari's separately. it'll be the same or cheaper. And you can self drive as well but you'll miss out on the amazing information the guides give. You don't need to be suckered into this - some research and a tiny bit of effort and you can avoid all this bs.

Kapama game reserve
4/5

We stayed at the kapama South camp. Truly 5 star treatment, we got picked up from the airport as promised. Our bedroom was exactly as had been promised. We managed 4 game drives in the 2 days we were in the lodge. Well fed throughout the day, staff were very attentive, nothing was too much trouble. Thoroughly recommend it to others

Customer service on a whole new level!
5/5

We initially made our enquiry via the Kruger Park website and received a very quick response from Giada. From that moment on she worked tirelessly to deliver an itinerary which met our brief exactly and as this was our first safari, offered excellent advice to ensure we were making the right decisions. As I am based in China, Giada and I often spoke at rather anti-social times for South Africa and regularly on weekends - she made herself available at any time to respond to our (many) questions. Following our booking, Giada kept in regular contact to offer advice and then throughout the trip she ensured everything was running smoothly. I can honestly say that it was one of best examples of excellent customer service I have ever experienced from the start to the finish and Giada was able to not only deliver an amazing itinerary but also pre-empt and anticipate our questions and concerns. Thanks to her hard work and determination to ensure she met our brief, Giada created the trip of a lifetime and I would have no hesitation in recommending her and the team.
