Outstanding
This is my third time using Wildlife Safaris and each time has been exceptional. The careful attention Christine provided in planning our custom 7 night safari, our knowledgeable and friendly guide Simon, and our excellent driver Hubert, ensured our family of 7 had the trip of a lifetime. I highly recommend this company, as well as including a stay at Mohlabetsi Safari Lodge as part of your safari experience.

The most amazing safari made perfect by Wildlife Safaris and our guide Simon
Highly recommend working with Wildlife Safaris. They provided excellent communication, organization, and service from the initial inquiry to the running of the Safari. Everything was meticulously planned in terms of timing, accommodations, and stops, offering excellent value for the experiences we enjoyed.
However, it was our guide, Simon, who truly made our trip exceptional. I cannot commend him highly enough for his professionalism, knowledge, and skills. When spending hours upon hours over days with a guide, they can truly make or break the experience. Simon ensured our comfort throughout and showed great courtesy to all family members. His deep, insider knowledge of the parks and wildlife was evident, and he used it to maximize our animal sightings. Simon knew precisely where to pause for breaks and how to make our time enriching. I enthusiastically recommend both him and the company to others.

Thorough, dedicated, informative, determined, and patient
Our experience was a phenomenal anomaly. We were only able to stay 48 hours and in that short time, we caught the entire 'Big 5' PLUS we saw a lion pride hunt a pack of impalas, with a singled-off impala barely escaping their clutches. This was incredible. I have friends who have been on safari 10 times and did not catch all of that in 1 short visit. I credit this to our guide, Simon, who was incredible. The accommodations were arranged and ready upon our arrival. It was a 'roughing it' experience, but we enjoyed being close to the hippos the first night and inside Kruger the second night. I highly recommend Wildlife Safaris for your excursion. Thank you Wildlife!
Team was responsive and able to accommodate our requests.
Our tour guide (Barney) was knowledgeable about wildlife, Kruger National Park and South Africa. He told us about how the animals inhabit the space and diligently looked out for different animals while he drove us around the park. Before and during the trip he was responsive via text/phone. He was able to accommodate our request when we had to shorten the tour by one day due to a logistical reason. I would recommend booking a private tour with Wildlife Safari.
Accommodations while we were at the Kruger National Park were okay. The accommodation at the final stop (Hazyview) was particularly nice.

Amazing safari in Kruger Natl. Park
Myself and three of my friends booked a safari as part of a college graduation trip to South Africa. We were truly blown away by the quality of experience we received. We were lucky enough to have Simon T. as our guide and not only is he a great guide who is well educated, but he is a very personable person that made our trip that much better. The lodging facilities arranged by the company were 10/10, not to mention the amazing food and hospitality shown by all involved. If you are at all contemplating going on a safari with this company, use this as a sign that you should, and request Simon!!!

Fantastic experience with quality guide
The whole experience with wildlife safaris exceeded all our expectations. Nic our guide was knowledgeable and made every effort to insure every aspect of the trip went perfectly. We were very fortunate to see the big 5 but had we not I feel that everyone would still had memories to treasure.
What was a surprise was the quality of the hotels they offer and the food provide at dinner was amazing.
A truly once in a lifetime experience made possible by Nic or guide
Thanks

Nick was super knowledgeable, great with our kids, and an amazing host.
This was our second safari with Wildlife Safaris and this time we brought our children (4 kids aged 7-12 yrs). We loved the 4 day itinerary last time and did the same reservation as before. It was a completely different experience, October vs April! The accommodations were wonderful, the food was both new/exotic but familiar enough that the kids loved it, too.
Don’t miss the night safari from Skukuza, and the ’Nasa Road’ was a real surprise wildlife spot!

Amazing experience!!
We did a three day guided tour of Kruger.
The team did a great job with communication prior to the safari to ensure that all our questions were answered promptly. We had no major issues before the safari and during it as well.
Nick was our guide during the trip and he was fantastic!! He made the trip enjoyable by providing plenty of commentary on the animals and we’re very happy with his knowledge. He made the trip an absolute blast and really went out of his way to make sure everything went smoothly. We couldn’t be more happy with the experience! We did only see three of the Big 5 but fault at all from Nick - More just luck of the draw.
