Excellent Customer Service!
I just completed a Safari booked for 10 people (multiple family members from different parts of the world) at Kambaku Lodge in South Africa. Madi was amazing. She responded to emails very quickly, answered all questions (from all of us!) and guided us to a booking that matched our families needs and budget. Her knowledge of the lodges and camps was invaluable! You can't get all the information you need just from the lodges websites, so her service was most appreciated. She followed up on everything. Customer service was the best I've ever received! Thanks Madi!!!

Seamless Safari Experience with Wild Wings
This was our first visit to South Africa and first safari. My wife and I had some anxiety on how to arrange transfers, lodging, and game hunts. Luckily, we sent an inquiry to Wild Wings, and we knew from their informative response that we'd picked a winner right away. Our advisor, Madi, patiently answered our numerous questions and laid out all the details for us, including what to bring, cost, what to expect, and other important details and suggestions. From touch down at the Hoedspruit Airport to take off, we were taken care of by Wild Wings Safari. The transfer was waiting for us and shuttled us to the Gomo Gomo Game Lodge, giving us lots of information and details along the way. We even saw two giraffes right by the road along the way! Once at the lodge, we couldn't have been happier with our accomodations; meals; game drives; trackers, guides, and staff at the lodge. Ross and Dominic, our ranger and tracker, worked so hard to make sure we got great sightings each day. The food was excellent and prices for drinks were reasonable. With Wild Wings and Gomo Gomo Game Lodge, there were no surprises and everything went smoothly throughout our stay. We were picked up on our last day and sadly left our great experience. We highly recommend Wild Wing Safaris and the Gomo Gomo Game Lodge!

A superb tour operator!
The first time I have organised and booked a holiday through a tour operator not based in the UK. Following excellent reviews on Trip Advisor, I contacted Wild Wings Safris as the standard South African safari/ Cape Town tours offered a limited safari experience, or were way above our budget limit. (We being four retired ladies.) From the start, I was really impressed with the advice and speed of replies to my emails from Madi at Wild Wings.With her enthusiasm and knowledge of both Cape Town and Kruger National Park, we had the most amazing holiday - truly a holiday of a life time. Our accomodation, guides, itinery were all wonderful. I never expected that we would get to stay in Timbavati, a private reserve, next to Kruger, and drive off road into the bush to watch lions next to the vehicle, a leopard and her cub from a dry river bed and many, many more amazing experiences. Have no hesitation in using Wild Wings - I just wish they could plan all my holidays!

Wild Wings Safari plans our second fantastic safari vacation
Clare at wild Wings Safaris set up our second once-in-a-lifetime safari vacation. Once again, everything came together perfectly without any problems. Clare worked closely with us as we planned our safari trip. Her help and suggestions led to another fantastic safari vacation. This time we visited four camps in Botswana (Baines, Nxabega, and Little Kwara in the Okavango Delta and Lebala in the Kwando Reserve), spent three nights in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, then visited Little Makalolo in Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park. All the camps were wonderful and together provided a great mix of experiences.

Incredible
We went to South Africa for our honeymoon. From the beginning to the end the planning was great. Initially Madi helped with the guiding us through the process and then the different options and expenses. Once arriving at Kruger we had Simon as our guide and he was amazing. He has so much knowledge and is able to see animals we would never be able to pick out! The food was amazing and he always made sure everyone was taken care of. He also made sure everyone had fun! We were able to see the Big 5 and other animals as well including a white elephant, which is very uncommon to see. He would explain facts about the animals and was excited about the big and small animals. We would recommend anyone to use Wild Wings as the company. They are highly competent and we cannot say enough good about them! Thanks again this will be one of the most memorable vacations of our life time and a great way to start our life together :)

Fantastic,great service,value for money.
Everything went as planned with great communication from all at Wild Wings.
Simon our guide is an excellent host with a wealth of knowledge , experience and who can spot a tick on the behind of a Rhino at a 1000 yards. We had great fun.
We will be recommending Wild Wings to all our friends and family and will most certainly use Wild Wings again ourselves.

Amazing Experience, Excellent Guide
Me and my friends recently returned from a 3 Day Kruger Park Safari with Wild Wings Safaris. First of all, the booking was easy, I had many questions and changed options many times and they were always polite and friendly and quick to respond. The tour itself was incredible. Our guide Simon was awesome. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and even a great cook. I would recommend this company to all. I hope we get the change to go back and use Wild Wings Safaris again in the future.

A dream come true!
We just returned from the most incredible trip to South Africa, thanks to Wild Wings Safaris. From first contact with our consultant, Madi, to our departure after 2.5 weeks in the beautiful country, everything was fantastic. Our trip included a couple of day tours near Johannesburg, 9 days in the Greater Kruger Area, and 5 days in Cape Town. I emailed back and forth with Madi for a year, and she helped me plan the perfect trip based on our budget, style, and needs. This was our first time travelling overseas, so we had many questions and concerns and Madi answered them all. The main focus of the trip was to fulfill my Dad's lifelong dream of going on safari, but we did and saw so much more.
Everything went so smoothly. All of the service we experienced was absolutely fantastic, everything exceeded our expectations. All of our accommodations were great, the food and the service outstanding. We would go back to any and all of them!
Of course I must mention our time in Kruger with Simon (co-owner of Wild Wings, and guide extraordinaire), what a character! We had such fun with him, and were so impressed with his knowledge of all things wild. We saw so much wildlife, and it was so great how we were able to learn so much about birds. We saw all of the big 5, and more, including leopards and cheetahs. He must be one of the best guides in the park! The food was also great - he was so well prepared and we enjoyed all of it. A huge huge thanks to shoeless Simon! We really got a kick out of him.
I highly recommend a safari trip to South Africa; the people are friendly, the scenery is stunning, and the wildlife is abundant and amazing. The service and advice we received from Wild Wings made this trip outstanding and truly worry-free. I can't say enough about this company. I will be using them again in the future, and recommending them to friends. Thank you, Wild Wings, our trip was truly a dream come true!

Excellent service and driving, have seen many animals with a guide having a lot of experience
The service was very good. Our guide was always in time, he prepared almost every meal for us. We were a small group and our guide drived us to the best places. We saw elephants, zebras, girafs, hyenas, baboons, eagles, voltures, crocodiles, hippos, rhinos and lots of impalas. Far away we could discover some cheetas having their meal. One lepard was crossing the road marking his area. Besides we loved the outdoor breakfast in Krüger with a great sight over the park. And the barbecue in the evening was also excellent. Our guide telled us a lot about the animals and life in South Africa. So it was very interesting for us Eurpeans.
