My family and I were blessed with an amazing experience because this company loves what they do!
Trying to find a company to book our safari through was a bit stressful as their are many to choose from. After speaking with Thale in our first email together she stood out from all the rest. She was timely in responding to all my questions and accomodated all my requests (travelling with 1year old son, vegan food, etc)
Our guides Chris and Lumi were so amazing. They are full of information about all the animals and South Africa in general. My family and I felt so comfortable with them it was actually sad to say our goodbyes at the end of our safari.
Kruger park is magical and we were able to see all the animals we had hoped for! This is a great company to book your tour with!

Had an amazing time - spotted tons of animals!
This trip was incredible. We booked a 4 day private safari for myself and 3 friends. The guides were awesome, friendly, and very accomodating. They also possess eagle eyes. There is no way we could have spotted even a fraction of the animals if not for the guides. The enclosed van was also nice, not as big open viewing areas like the open air trucks, but far more comfortable.
I'd highly recommend booking with Wild Planet!

You Are In Expert Hands!
We recently finished the 11 Day Kruger North to South Private trip and had a great time. Ryan and Lungisani are absolutely expert guides and a real pleasure to spend time with. We enjoyed watching them compete with each other to see who could spot the most Big Five animals, and we were the beneficiaries! We were able to observe up close all of the animals we wished, with the only exception being a cheetah, which are very rare. Ryan is a birding expert and spotted an incredible number of birds for us to photograph. I cannot emphasize the value of their knowledge of animals, plants and birds. Later, during our African vacation we heard ridiculous statements from so-called guides who were spouting falsehoods. We confirmed Ryan's information via Google. You will have a great time with these fine guides!

Incredible 4 Days in Kruger
The experience with Wild Planet Safari exceeded all expectations. Communication leading up to our trip was easy and Thale was always quick to reply with helpful information. Coordinating our airport transfers was seemless and Ryan was right on time when our flight arrived.
The safari itself was amazing. Ryan and Issac’s experience along with Lungisani’s sharp eyes allowed us to see more wildlife than we even imagined. This included the big 5 and more.
The food was unique and delicious at every meal. We even asked one the recipes to try at home.
The accommodations were exactly as described and were quite comfortable throughout our stay.
I would definitely recommend Wild Planet to anyone looking for a wonderful safari experience in Kruger.

We had a completely amazing experience from start to finish.
We LOVED our experience with Wild Planet Safari. The tour guide was incredibly trustworthy, friendly, and so knowledgable! He searched passionately for all of the different (and spectacular) species in the park. Because of his knowledge of tracking and species behavior, we found and saw things that none of the other visitors we spoke to had seen. It was an epic adventure! They also provided good, wholesome food, and thoughtful attention to detail. It was awesome! In addition, the administrator was helpful with every aspect of planning. When we had a hiccup in our flight plans, she even helped us secure a refund for our hotel!

A well thought and planned African experience
Our tour started in Johannesburg and went up through Kruger and Zimbabwe finishing at Victoria Falls
Our family 4 had a driver/spotter and chef/spotter throughout Kruger- with their expertise we saw everything and had great time. Zimbabwe we had one person doing both jobs - bar no electricity we had a ball. Highlights being walking with rhinos, matapo hills and close experiences with lion and leopard. Food better than expected.

Knowledgeable guides who would do anything for us
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
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
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.
