Norman was outstanding to coordinate the trip with due to his flexibility and prompt responses.
4/5

Norman was great at accommodating my travel and payment requests. Khongi was the driver assigned to my trip. He was a friendly and outgoing personality which made him easy to talk to. He expertly navigated the many potholes on the Panorama Route. I felt safe with his driving the entire trip.

The Kruger Gate Hotel was amazing as was the safari at Kruger National Park. The safari was a new experience, and I therefore had a lot of questions. All of the tour operators were patient to ensure I was comfortable. I did the full day safari which included two breaks. One in the morning and one for lunch.

The Panorama Route was a long trip back to Johannesburg. We made two stops. One at the Lisbon Falls and the second at the Blyde River Canyon (includes the Three Rondavels). The weather wasn't great but we managed to see the sites despite the rain and clouds. Beware that this route doubled the amount of time to drive back to Johannesburg.

Overall, Nhlalala Travel was a lovely group to work with.

An unforgettable memory
4/5

If you are planning to visit Kruger, do not hesitate and choose this agency. Norman was always attentive to make sure that we had an unforgettable and personalize experience and he was also very open to listen our point of view of points of improvement to be the best.

A part form the wild animals that you can see in Kruger National Park, don’t forget to visit Blyde River Canyon. It’s absolutely incredible!

If we have the pleasure to come back to this beautiful country, we will repeat the experience for sure.

The review below is the personal opinion of Mark and not that of SafariBookings.
Tour didn't quite meet the decription we were originally quoted for.
3/5

The tour was expensive for what it was. The lodge just outside the park was in an excellent location but it was run down. Rooms and the bathroom weren't really clean. The restaurant food wasn't good quality.
Norman - who drove us from the airport also drove us on the first game drive as no professional guide was available. It's not as good an experience in a car and certainly not what we paid for. Kruger National Park is excellent of course and delivered the big 5 for us! Overall a mediocre tour operator who charges a lot. We realise now that we could have done the tour ourselves without using a tour operator for less than half the price.
