all expectations met
5/5

We went on a 5 day camping safari and had a great time looking for all kind of wild animals at litterly any time of the day (morning and night game drives). The 5 days in Kruger NP gave a great impression of the park and it's inhabitants. The experienced guide was also driving safely not only in the park, but also all the way from Johannesburg to the park and back. The Tents were in good shape and even had a cosy bed. The food was basic but tasty in regards to the circumstances in the bush. All in all a great experience.

A very enjoyable 4 days safari with Chris our guide and “Mr Fixit” his assistant. Chris was so knowledgable and informative about all the wildlife we encountered including the incredible variety of bird life in Kruger.

Awesome safari!
5/5

First of all, we really had a good time! Chris and Lungi are great guides: we’ve spotted lots of animals thanks to them. Also we learned a lot from them about the flora & fauna in the Krugerpark. We even saw a wild dog and a cheetah! :-)

The food was perfectly prepared by Lungi. He thought of every detail. It was delicious!

Chris and Lungi were always on time. They were very helpful and their information was clear. They did all the preparations very well. It felt like a real holiday :-)

Chris and Lungi form a good team. We hope that they will keep up the good work! At the moment we can’t think of any improvements.

3 nights, 4 days in Kruger
5/5

Ryan has been simply as good as a tour guide can be.
He was punctual, extremely knowledgeable and willing to share his life experiences with us. His wide-ranging knowledge of animals and their ethology allowed us to learn quite a lot in such a short time.
He answered all the umpteenth questions we asked him kindly and fully even at 5 o'clock in the morning while sipping coffee and nibbling some rusks before the gate opened and we could head into the wild.
Unquestioningly, if in the future we have the chance to spend some more time in South Africa, he will be our guide.

Thank you!

Wonderful safari with a young motivated family team providing a personalised adventure.
5/5

Our group of 6 mature Australians really enjoyed our peronalised 5 day Kruger and Panorama Route Safari with the owners and now our great friends, Ryan and Thale together with their delightful young African assistant Langi. All booking communication was prompt, easy and helpful. The personalised service, expert cultural and environmental commentary on the safari from start to finish was enthusiastic and informative. We really enjoyed the personalised bush catering and mid level camp accomodation. I highly recommend this family based company to all age groups who want value for money, without fancy frills, but who want to experience and learn about Africa to the maximum in the time available. Kruger is awesome!

Absolutely Amazing!
5/5

These guys are amazing!
I've just returned from an 11day North to South Tour of Kruger with my Grandfather- and i cant put to words how good it was.
We looked into several tour companies before coming across Wild Planet and im so glad we chose these guys but they were so helpful and professional compared to many of the others, from the very first email contact to the end of the tour couldn't have been a better experience; their knowledge of the area/wildlife and generally everything we came across was outstanding - the food was great, the sightings were unbelievable, and we had a fantastic time!
The only bad thing - is the tour came to an end :-( but its memories that will stay with us forever.. THANK YOU TO YOU BOTH SO MUCH! :-D :-D

Excellent guides and trip itinerary
5/5

The safari was better than we'd hoped for! We could not have asked for better guides- Ruan and Federica were AMAZING! The trip itinerary was well-planned and we really feel like we got to experience the best that the Kruger had to offer! Would totally recommend to anyone looking for an affordable, once in a lifetime adventure!!

Delightful young man, full of knowledge and an obvious love of "Kruger" animals & birds.
5/5

What an amazing experience we and 4 other "Aussies" had visiting "Kruger", in March 2018 under the wonderful leadership of Ryan & Thale & their very delightful African assistant Langi. An exceptional young couple who were a pleasure to spend time with around the campfire enjoying the delicious meals prepared by Langi. Ryan is a book of knowledge, in all areas whether it be animals, birds or the area we traveled in. He knew exactly the places to visit, and the right time of day to do so to find all the animals & birds we sighted.
A faultless 5 days way beyond our expectations. Would recommend them to all thinking of visiting "Kruger".

The best safari company to feel at home, a wild one.

We loved our tour with Wild Planet. They made us feel really confortable, even in a wild place. They were really aware what they were doing and we felt secure in their hands. The handmade cook was SUPERB. <3
