Knowledgeable guides who would do anything for us
5/5

I was contacted by email to set everything up. Once we arrived, we were introduced and told the schedule. We had two guides, one driver and the other the cook.
We enjoyed dinner made on the coals by our lodges. Excellent menu.
During the safaris, we were taken to the best spots to see so many animals.
I really enjoyed my time and would go with this company again.
Thank you!

Lifetime experience
5/5

We did the 6-day Kruger Safari Tour with Wild Planet Safari and really enjoyed our time in Kruger National Park. Our guides Chris and Ben did their best so that we see as many animals as possible. Chris's eyes are extraordinary! He can really spot the smallest animals at long distances. Ben's cooking was also very good! Communication, booking, paying and transfers were excellent. We would recommend Wild Planet Safari to everyone!

Exceeded my high expectations
5/5

My partner and I completed a 6 day Kruger Safari with Wild Planet Safari in February 2019. I couldn't have prepared myself for how much of an amazing experience it was. I had modest expectations of the amount of animals we would see in the park but we saw everything and several times over the 6 days. Ryan and Lungisani knew just where to find the animals and their spotting ability is very impressive. The entire trip was great from start to finish, accommodation is great, meals are great, safari drives are amazing, Ryan and Lungisani were terrific guides and Thale is excellent and responsive to your booking needs when planning.
I have some incredible photos and memories forever from this trip and it has motivated me to see more of Kruger and of Southern Africa with Wild Planet Safari.

Great service, food and sightings!
5/5

Our trip with Wild Planet Safari surpassed our expectations. Thale was helpful and quick to respond prior to our trip and Chris and Ben looked after us brilliantly from the moment they picked us up to when they dropped us off 5 days later. We saw some wonderful scenery on the Panorama Route and all of the big 5 (and many other animals too) in Kruger. Chris worked very hard to try and find leopard and rhino which we were most keen to see and was so excited for us when we did! Unforgettable memories

an exciting and educational experience that way exceeds our expectations
5/5

We went on several salaries in southern Africa (South Africa, Botswana, and Zimbabwe) in May 2019 and the safari with Wild Planet turned out to be the best overall -- in communications and service in lodging, food, transportation and game drive. One thing standing out with Wild Planet and we all appreciate most is the sharing of knowledge, from local tourist information, national parks, features and habits of different animals, hunting, animal control-management and people-animal relation, to politics, history, ethnic groups in southern Africa and so on. We were very lucky to have Lance as our tour leader and guide, who is exceptionally knowledgeable, willing, and able to share information about all these topics and to answer all questions we had. As a result, the entire tour turned out to be very educational. Lance responded to our needs timely and effectively; he went far and beyond to ensure that we have the best experience possible in this area.

EXCELLENT SERVICE
5/5

We enjoy the Safari and have great time with Chris and Benjamin. They are very professional.

Chris went extra miles, even at the risk of penalty for lake coming back before gate closing, to chase the wild dogs. We were lucky to see 6 wild dogs which is so rare now all over Africa.

Benjamin is a good cook. I am quite a big fan of his chicken curry and garlic bread.

We also did the extra tour panoramic trail today to Blyde River Canyon which is great place as well.

A wonderful travel organised by Wild planet Safari
5/5

We were very lucky to have our short tour from May 18 to 20, 2019 in Hwange National Park and Matobo National Park organized by Wild Planet Safari. Lance did not only answered my request very quickly, but also adjusted the whole programm in accordance with our wishes. We appreciate his flexibility very much! Lance accompanied us personally during the whole tour and took great care for everything. The two restaurants booked by Lance for our dinners are located so beautifully with a real ambient, and we, of course, also enjoyed our food very much. The game drive in Hwange National Park was unforgettable. I made some of my best photos there. We are also very grateful to Lance for all the first-hand information not only about the parks and animals, but also about Zimbabwe. Our tour ended in the hotel in Bulawayo, but Lance offered us transfers from the hotel to the airport without any extra charge for this service.

Thank you Thale for the great experience. Everything from the beginning till the end was perfectly planned. We didn't have to worry about anything. The transport from and to Jo'burg, the lodge we slept in (amazing), the driver (the little 5 safari) and the extra activities. I will definitely recommend you to others!
