Great experience, super accommodating.
5/5

We booked a 3 day safari very last minute after finishing a work assignment in the area. While our original lodge wasn’t available, Wayne and his team found us an arguably even better place to stay. We loved it so much we extended our trip by a few days and ended up with 5 days in the bush. Saw all the Big 5 within 2 game drives and had the most incredible experience. Transfers to and from JBurg were seamless and cannot recommend Wayne and his team enough; they were so accommodating when we extended our trip at the 11th hr. Highly recommend and will be sending my friends and family their way!!!

Good organised tour operator with nice people
4/5

It was good 4 day organised tour. They picked me up in Johannesburg, brought me to Tremisana lodge. Nice tours in the wildernes. The braai in the evening in the dark in the middle of it was a great experience. Except for the bugs. But you are in the wildernes so you can't denie them. We had a great tour in greater kruger. We did see a lot of animals.
Marc's camp was also nice. Friendly people and the food was good. We had to walk a path to go to the tents or treahouses. There you could walk into a lot of animals. (we only walked into monkey's, nyala's and a buffelo). But if you leave them and let them do there thing it is oke. In the dark it's a little scary, (you don't know what you will see) but the guards were very nearby.
I didn't go to the toilets in the night. The toilets were outside and i had to cross over to go to them. The paths were all lighted bij lamps but during a loadshedding it is pitchdark. The bushwalks in the morning were very nice and i learned a lot about the bush. Thanks to Shane
They kindly brought me home to the place where i stayed in Johannesburg.
Overal it was a amazing holiday to remember.

The entire Hoyo Hoyo Lodge staff are top notch.
5/5

This was quite possibly the best vacation we have ever taken. Every the about Hoyo Hoyo - the lodge staff, our tour guide Matt, the location with view of the wild animal water hole, etc. - was as good as we could've possibly hoped for. We thoroughly enjoyed our safari experience. Everything about it was excellent !

Extremely knowledgeable and personable
5/5

This safari couldn’t have been better. The lodge was extremely comfortable. The staff was very friendly and took care of everything. The food was delicious and plentiful
The Safari trips were great. The guide took us all over the concession. He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and birds.
I liked the way the different guides worked together letting each other know about sightings
Would highly recommend anyone planning a trip to Krueger to stay at Hoyo Hoyo It is the way to go

Varied bushwalks and drives, which gave us opportunities to see 4 of the big 5. Guides experienced .
5/5

Accomodation was different on both sites, which made experience more contrasting ie tented at Marc's camp.
Staff helpfull, food good and braai experience with hyenas in the background unusual.
Guides for bushwalks and drives were knowledgeable and enhanced the experience of seeing animals on safari.
Overall well priced for safari experience.
