Life memories began here.
I cannot thank Wildlife Safaris and their wonderful guide Sue Wilson enough for my wonderful time in Kruger National Park. I went on a 4 day safari. I was picked up and dropped off at my lodgings in Johannesburg. Great accommodation and meals included. Very good value for money. The company was very professional. The guide was fantastic. I traveled ion my own and joined another 6 people for my safari. I recommend this Safari and this company to any one who wishes to have a unforgettable time with true value for money.

Excellent, knowledgeable guide, fantastic experience!
We were picked up from our hotel promptly by our guide, with whom we spent the next 3 days. He was very friendly, helpful, and most important, he knew his stuff when it came to animals. He looked after us really well, everyone on the camp knew him. When we hadn't seen one of the Big Five, he made a special effort to find us rhino, and you could tell he really wanted us to have that experience, and boy, did we have an amazing close-up with a white rhino. The only thing he couldn't arrange for us was a lion chase. Oh well, next time!

The big 5 and more!
The safari was amazing! We saw every animal we wanted (lions, leopards, cheetah, rhinos, zebras, elephants, hippos, giraffe, hyena, ect). Our guide (Hoppy) was really friendly and helpful. We took the 5 day safari and got to experience both Kruger National Park and a private reserve. It was great to experience both options. Kruger was better in my opinion, less hokey. But the private reserve was able to show us the animals we hadn't seen yet. The food was excellent and there was always plenty of it. The beds were nice too. We felt safe the entire time if that's a concern. I would (and have) totally recommend to anyone. If you're looking to go on a safari, this one is worth the cost and time.

Our trip far exceeded our expectations, which were already pretty high!
I couldn't praise Wildlife Safari's enough. From our initial enquiry when our questions were dealt with helpfully and quickly, right through to the end of our trip. Admittedly the amount and variety of wildlife we saw made a difference, but the guide, attention to detail, standard of accommodation and scheduling were all excellent.

Fantastic safari with an excellent guide
We went on a fantastic four-day Kruger safari. This was our second trip with Wildlife Safaris, and we wouldn't hesitate in going again. The booking process was very smooth, and professionally handled by Christine. Our guide, Hoppy, was very knowledgeable and he was a pleasure to have as a guide. He was always tailoring the safari to our interests in order to make it the best experience possible, and he definitely succeeded. We saw many different animals and we had a great time. This safari was the highlight of our two-month trip to Africa and Europe.

Panorama Route to Kruger Park
We had a wonderful trip to Kruger Park. Christine was very efficient in getting back to you and answering any concerns prior to our trip. Our guide, Hoppy, was very knowledgable and easy going. He had a great eye for spotting animals. We stayed in some unique accommodations and had a wonderful stay in Skokuza Rest Camp. I would recommend booking thru Wildlife Safaris.

Kruger: the big five plus so much more
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our safari! The arrangements were easy and professional. Our luck (Clive's skill) was amazing. The weather was great, our animal sightings were up-close and frequent, the accommodations were fun and the food was great! It was more than we expected in many ways, but most of all it was fun and relaxing.

Fantastic experience and excellent organization
Communication was efficient but there were a few small bloomers on the way (mixing up Kruger with Madikwe).
Service was excellent, we were picked up at the airport on time, traveled on a comfortable, air-conditioned minibus with a friendly driver who gave us a guided tour. We were excited when we entered the Park as our driver pointed out the impala, giraffes and zebras. The accommodation was wonderful and we received a warm welcome from the owners of Bush Lodge and the rangers. The garden there is beautiful and the water-hole and hide at the bottom of the garden were the icing on the cake. Elephants, lions, impala, zebra, giraffes,waterhogs, rhinos came daily to enjoy the water, as though for our benefit. The ranger-guided tours were exciting and it was great to see cooperation among the rangers in tracking and locating the big 5. Seeing the big 5 at close quarters was nerve-tingling but amazing as the animals either didn't move (lionesses) or just walked by the jeep without paying us any attention (elephant and lions). A bonus was the dramatic starlit nights. Seeing southern hemisphere stars and constellations clearly for the first time, with the expert guidance of our ranger, was particularly exciting for me from the Northern hemisphere. On our last night, we were entertained with traditional local singing and dancing by the Lodge staff. All in all, a fabulous 3 days, highly recommended.
