Loved the safari and Katekani lodge!
5/5

We loved the safari! We both wished we'd done it for longer than 4 days.

We found the employees to be really helpful and friendly, the accommodation was lovely especially the Katekani lodge. We loved the fact there were only a few lodges there and they were all hidden amongst the bushes plus the food was delicious! I'd highly recommend staying there.

The only issue we had was with the private game reserve we went to that was just down the road from Katekani. We felt the driver had no real interest in showing us any animals and when we did see some, there was no real effort to show them to us. We got the impression our driver must have ranked a lot lower down the chain as other drivers made him move out of the way so they could get better views.

We were also not expecting to drive for as long as we did. It took 8 hours to get there and 10 hours to get back! If we had known, we might have chosen to fly in instead!

But other than that we really did enjoy the safari. I'd have no issue recommending Safari with Us to anyone.

Great touristic experience !
5/5

It went really, one of the best touristic experience in my life.
The bad points that I can find are the weather, we cannot do anything about that only God's wiling, and I haven't seen a Leopard, but I guess they are really rare so for my next safari, I will take a longer journey in a safari.
Anyway, thank you for everything it was awesome !

Perfectly compilated program
5/5

Everything was perfect - accomodation for one personne was very comfortable, the food was very tasty, transport from Johannesburg to Kruger and back was very fast and comfortable as well. The program was very good compilated (except stop in Blyde river canyon, beacuse I think that it should be better to spend there more time than 30 minutes).

5/5

I did did a sleep out safari and it was great. Chris was an excellent guide on the walking safari and really made the trip for me, sleeping outside under the stars was fantastic too. I'd highly recommend it.

An amazing life changing experience, fabulous staff, and facilities beautiful surroundings - amazing
5/5

We had a wonderful experience and truly looked after from booking in the U.K., to arrangements for collection and transfers. The In and Out guest house was perfect for a stop over. Dennis who collected us and was our "cater" on the trip we had fabulous and couldn't do enough for us. He is a credit to you. The safaris were awesome, we saw all the big 5 except one. The lodges were great although we need a little air con in the balcony level or a fan !!!.
The food and hospitality at the lodge was great as were the staff - we loved it and highly recommend it

An amazing experience
5/5

Booking was easy and emails always received a speedy response.
We were picked up from where we were staying in Johannesburg and driven to the Lodge where we received a very warm welcome. The accommodation was luxurious, and the surrounding gardens a lovely calm oasis for relaxing and viewing the watering hole.
We saw a wide variety of game on the drives, including elephant , giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, black rhino, warthog, kudu, springbok,and many beautiful birds. The highlight was when a pack of wild dogs made a kill at the boundary fence in front of the Lodge.

Very accommodating, efficient and professional.
5/5

Safari With Us was very prompt in replying even over the holidays. They were very accommodating especially with our last minute requests and surpassed our expectations. From the time we landed in South Africa till we left everything ran smoothly with everyone being courteous and making our trip enjoyable. The choice of Tau Lodge was excellent especially the Ranger assigned to us (Ignatius - Iggy for short) made it a point to ensure that we saw as many animals as possible especially the Big Five. He was also very engaging. Overall we were very satisfied with our safari experience.

A special thanks to Andre Retief from Safari With Us.

Reliable and quick to respond
5/5

I mainly corresponded with Andre of Safari with Us and it was very comforting to get quick responses to any questions I have. Planning for a safari trip from overseas is a bit daunting but dealing with Safari With Us made it easy and effortless. The safari package I eventually selected was from Viva Safaris (Safari with Us partners with them) and it turned out the way it was described. Great experience!
