Everything as described
Everything was as described or better. We enjoyed our tour guides, each was knowledgeable and tried to fulfill our expectations. Our accommodations were as we expected and very clean. The staff at the lodge and the treehouse were great. The food was good and Collette, the hostess at the treehouse went out of her way to be accommodating and friendly.

Safari With Us exceeded all expectations. Faultless and Professional!
Our 3 day stay at Madigwe Game Reserve was arranged to perfection. The Safari was tailored to meet our needs and the numerous communications were amazingly prompt and informative.
Our driver to Madigwe Thabo was simply the best! Nothing was too much trouble and he was a wealth of information.
Payment for our tour was made through a secure website which was a bonus, as many other (legitimate) tour operators requested credit card details by email.
Numerous and varied bookings were made for our 4 week adventure in South Africa, but Safari With Us by far, stood out as the best to deal with.
Thank you Andre Retief and your team of professionals.
Simply excellent!!
Way better than expectation
It was my first trip to SA with very less information in my head. I randomly picked Safaribookings.com by the friendly layout of the page and picked Safari With us by affordable price and traveling period. I knew nothing and I asked quite a lot. Appreciated that your website provided me a good answer and I got many email correspondences with Safari with us that made me feel comfortable and filled me with useful information. Anyway the most important thing is the actual trip that was amazing in every way. The door to door transit were great. I absolutely love every minutes in the trip. Because my biology clock is 5 hr ahead the dinner were always a bit too big but very good. Tour put me and my friend in the small group with another nice couple for the whole trip which made me feel very comfortable. For the Safari, even tough our guides know that it's my first Safari which will make me happy with everything but I can sense that they still tried to give us the best experience in just a short time that we had. (We saw 4 from the big 5 in 3 days trip which is exactly as I was informed before that the chance is 80%.)
This trip makes me one of the fan of South Africa and will always be.

Awesome
Everything about it was just great, from the initial contact with Safari with us, the detail was exactly as described. The pick up and drop off driver was excellent and very friendly, he had to deal with a puncture and an elephant causing a traffic holdup and on the return journey got us to the airport in plenty of time. The lodge was outstanding as were the staff and our safaris topped the holiday by giving us the big 5. Thank you so much, I’ve already recommended them to one of my friends thinking of going next year and will not hesitate to do so again.

First Safari - A Wonderful Experience
My experience with Safari With Us was absolutely amazing. I wish there was a rating above Excellent! Andre was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was quick to respond to every email and so helpful in planning this wonderful experience. Our transfer from Johannesburg to Madikwe Game Reserve was with Thabo. He was so kind and took the time to tell us interesting things about Johannesburg and the other areas we passed through. He even stopped to point out animals while driving to and from the Lodge through Madikwe. We stayed at Motswiri Private Safari Lodge and it was PERFECT! Our room was beautiful, it overlooked their water hole so we watched elephants, zebra, giraffe and even water buffalo come for a drink. The staff was so kind and thoughtful, the food was delicious and the game drives were so much fun. I highly recommend Safari with Us - it was truly an experience of a lifetime!

very responsive and flexible
Really helpful customer service and excellent value travel company. Made my experience in Botswana and Zambia very memorable during COVID traveling times. Good connections to knowledgeable local on the ground tour people and drivers who know the African landscape of their countries and cultures really well, highly recommend for all types of travel through Africa.

Amazing for large groups!
We've used Safari With Us for 3 years now and have loved working with them. They're so great at going above and beyond when things go wrong and making sure our groups are safe and having fun. They always have great ideas for us and our group of youth. Andre is easy to communicate with and always available. And their prices are great and right within our budget for our humanitarian groups! I would highly recommend working with them again!

Amazing Safari Experience!
We are grateful to witness such a wonderful South African experience. Wow. Many thanks for the great support and sending Miranda. She is truly a character and super entertaining im many ways. Everything was arranged to our convenience and pleasure within the giving time schedule. Additional activities were organized within a moment, and we could enjoy the whole time without worrying about arrangements or bookings. The Panorama tour with Miranda was also very special to us as she gave us lots of information, but also kept some private moments for us to enjoy. All in all, a wonderful experience and we would like to come back another time.
Once in a lifetime experience!
I cannot say enough about how much I loved my experience and our Safari With Us. If you do this, make sure that you do the Panorama route on your way home. Absolutely stunning views and well worth the time. Make sure you give yourself plenty of time to explore (8 hours or so). We did the value safari and the accommodations were just as we expected and well worth the price we paid. Only critique would be that food that was included was not the greatest. I would encourage you to bring some snacks along for the journey.
