Fantastic experience for our family of 4
5/5

Our family of 4--from Colorado, USA-- had an excellent adventure with Wild Planet Safari in Kruger. The staff was amazing and we learned as much about life in South Africa as we did about the wildlife. Our two daughters (13 and 10) had a great time and everyone was very accomodating. I highly recommend it.

Amzing trip, life time experience
5/5

This is the second time we have Ryan and Thale as our guide in South Africa, it's truly lifetime experience, they went out of their way to arrange our trip, we saw so many wild animals, we stayed in places which way beyond our expectations, the food, the crew, everything is so perfect. We'll come back with our friends again. We had a large group, 18 people in total, 10 kids age from 8-13. Everyone is so satisfied, thank you Ryan and Thale!

Unforgettable experience!
5/5

We did a 5 Day Safari tour in Kruger Park + 1 Day in the Panorama Route in April 2017 with the guide Adriaan Tromp. This tour was amazing! Adriaan knows a lot about South Africa, animals, and he was making every effort possible to make our experience the best. We saw not only the big animals, but also wild dogs, one albino Lion and even a crocodile eating a python! He also explained a lot about the life of the animals and showed also the birds, which were very interesting.
We camped in the closed Camps of Kruger and it was very comfortable, we even had beds inside our tent and we didn’t have to worry about anything, just to enjoy the view. Adriaan and his assistant were taking care of setting up the camp and cooking/grilling delicious South African food (or whatever we desired) for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
For the last evening, we did the Panorama Route and we spent the night in the Forever Resort, very comfortable and with amazing views.
For the booking process, we got in contact with Thale who answered all your doubts by email beforehand.
It was really an amazing experience and we are very happy to have chosen Wild Planet Safari!
An unforgettable experience of a lifetime!

A wonderful safari and wildlife photography experience
5/5

The communications on arrangements for our five-day trip with Wild Planet Safari were timely and helpful. Our guide Darren and his assistant Lungi were very experienced, friendly and professional. We chose a camping trip and our tents were comfortable and meals were tasty. Darren and Lungi focused on our interest in finding and photographing birds, as well as the "big five" animals and other wildlife. They know the park well and places to maximize chances for interesting viewing. The open safari vehicle performed well and had excellent visibility. It was an amazing experience!

Incredible experience - definitely recommend private tour with open vehicle
5/5

My wife and I went traveled to South Africa with my brother and his friend in Sep 2019. The safari experience was absolutely breathtaking and Wild Planet Safari did an exceptional job making this once in a lifetime trip come true. Because it was 4 of us we elected to do the private tour, which I strongly recommend as we were able to customize the tour to our liking. I also think the extra money for an open vehicle was well with the cost because there was nothing between you and the animals. Overall, we recommend Wild Planet Safari without any reservation.

Excellent 5-day Kruger Tour!
5/5

It was a great experience seeing the Elephants, Lions, Giraffes, Zebra, Antelope, and others in their natural habitat during the 5-day Kruger Tour.

The booking, payments, and communications were done via email; and all my requirements and expectations were met. My wife and I, and her friend were part of the tour; and we were met at the airport by 2 of Wild Planet Safari's staff. Since it was just the 3 of us with the 2 guides, we had the flexibility when and where to stop; and what sites to prioritize. The service, lodging, and food were great; and the best part was an accommodation at an B&B lodging that looked and felt like a 5 star hotel (part of the package). The hosts were great as well!

Thanks Thale and Team, for the personalized travel itinerary-

Very enjoy the safari tour
5/5

Chris was the tour guide, he is a very nice guy and very professional. He can see animals in a very long distance with his own eyes, he knows where to find the animals in the Kruger national park, whatever they are 'big five', 'small five', 'ugly five' or others. We did really enjoy our safari tour under his guidance. Benjamin was our cooker, we loved his cooking. How can a good safari tour without delicious foods, Benjamin amazingly did his job, and he also helped us to find more animals with his sharp eyes. Overall, the safari experience was great, highly recommend it to all of you.

Great experiences with lots of memories.
5/5

We had plenty of questions before we even started with this safari tour and got a lot of help in advance as it was our first safari. The itinerary was extremely well organised by Wild Planet Safari. They followed closely the described schedule. We did not miss anything and were very satisfied with all the different kind of animals we spotted. We had comfortable resorts and enjoyed the self prepared cooking and even got the "ordered" red wine for dinner. As well we had very interesting conversations with our guide, not only about wild animals but also about South Africa, their people and politics, etc..
