Wonderful Trip , very knowledgeable guide
We had a wonderful 6 gay Safari in Kruger. Ryan the owner, guide us through the park and kept us amazed with his story telling and his in depth knowledge of the wild life. We saw everything, including black rhinos, leopards, and lions. Many many elephants, up to 60 passing by one early morning. Camping was fun and food was good...best was the company. We recommend , you will have a very nice time.

Terrific experience, Terrific value
We booked this tour to go on a professional safari & also to get ideas on how to do our own self drive safari. Ryan was very informative with all of the safari's he took us on & then very helpful with lots of information for us to do our own safari's afterwards. We booked as only two people online & were really pleased to find that weren't going away with a big group. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves & loved all the meals that were provided & our accommodation at Kruger, so we totally recommend 'Wild Planet Safari' to anyone interested in booking one. It was a very exciting experience & worth every cent!!!!

Excellent, knowledgeable, cheery, uncomplaining guides with sharp spotting eyes showed us so much.
First class communications. Prompt, friendly, helpful replies at all times and alterations made to personalise our tour including re-booking accommodation caused bt the BA flight problems. Coming from so far we tried to do too much. We would have preferred to have spent longer in each location with less time on the road so we will just have to return with more time. The bush walk in the Kruger was memorable as were the. Iews in Berg en Dal. We preferred to leave out the shopping trip to Durban as we had come looking for animals and birds and shopping malls are the same the world over but a quiet day relaxing near the beach was rewarded with a whale spouting. The trip to Rorke's Drift was an extra well- worth doing and the accommodation there something really special with San cave art a bonus. Animals at the Golden Gate were almost non- existent as the gates are now open and unmanned but the geology was impressive. The geology of the Drakensberg is simply breathtaking but you need to be fit. Just sitting watching the sunrise and set on the Cathedral was special In short: a first rate tour company which we would certainly recommend.

Authentic and Personalized Experience!
My husband and I did the 7 day, 6 night Kruger safari with Wild Planet, and they really surpassed our expectations. We had the best time! Thale was so helpful when we booked, especially with the wire transfer, which was nerve wracking and not entirely straightforward due to South African banking rules. We picked Wild Planet because we wanted an authentic and personal experience, and we felt we got exactly that. I cannot even convey the wealth of knowledge Ryan has about every plant and animal. He knows every inch of Kruger - where specific animals hang out and tricks to help increase your chances of animal sightings. We felt like they respected the park, its rules, and its wildlife. It felt like we had an insider's view of the park, which was awesome! The entire safari was built around our interests and desires. It was truly an authentic and personal experience - something you don't get with the larger safari companies. We wouldn't hesitate to send any of our friends and family to Wild Planet and we plan to book with them again in the future.

Awesome three day safari
We are so happy of choosing this company to do a three day safari at Kruger. I think it is the best option because of the price and all the good experiences that Adriaan and Benji have given to us. A big thank you for them!
We will repeat in some years for sure.

So Glad We Chose Wild Planet Safari!
When we discovered that our participation in our chosen 8-day Kruger Family Safari would not be with a small group, rather just the two of us, we had misgivings as we thought that meeting other like-minded folk would be enjoyable. Well, we have to say after the event that our misgivings were unfounded. In the closed vehicle we were not buffeted by cold early morning winds and best of all we learned so much from Ryan, company founder and guide. He has amazing in-depth knowledge about all the wildlife we saw and we also learned a lot about life in South Africa. You wouldn’t get that seated high in an open vehicle remote from the driver/guide!
We really appreciated the opportunities to get up close and personal with animals at the Hazyview Elephant Sanctuary and the Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre at Hoedspruit and on the way back to Jo’burg we journeyed through the amazing scenic Drakensberg Range.
We were well looked after for the entire time and we had a wonderful experience. We will remember it always!

Amazing!!!!
My wife and I recently did a 9 day ( 8 night ) safari with Wild Planet, and it was amazing.. Adriaan, our tour guides knowledge was second to none.. He answered all of our questions, about anything and everything.. And was a very good cook.. He's a very likeable guy! Benji was his assistant and he's got a lot of potential..
We loved every minute of it and would highly recommend Wild Planet to everyone..

Unforgettable Experience with an Amazing Team!
We were on a 3 night, 4 day tour to Kruger with Ryan and Lungisani. They are extremely professional and run a very smooth operation. My wife and I had an absolute fantastic time and are looking to book our next South Africa Kruger Tour with Wild Planet Safari. In addition to seeing all the Big 5, we had an amazing culinary experience. Along with their customer service and witty banter, this is what also stood out. I can't thank them enough for introducing us to all the wild animals, and in such a great knowledgeable and informative manner. These guys were awesome and I recommend that 1,000%!

Perfect trip
The team is very professional. We manneged to spot all animals thanks to Ryan an Lumi. They picked us up and drop us off at the airport on time and always on a good mood. They cooked for us delicious local food and wine. Besides the day we had pasta salad, everything was tasty. Highly recommend!
