What a trip!
Hi Liselle,
I would like to thank you for organising a fantastic trip to South Africa. We all had an amazing time. The hotels in Cape Town and Franschhoek were great. Great staff and wonderful rooms. And the safari at Umkumbe was out of this world. Saw everything we wanted to except for a rhino. But that’s not a problem, as it gives us incentive to do it all again someday. The guides at Umkumbe were brilliant. So knowledgeable about the flora and fauna. This was a family holiday we will never forget.

Everything one expects and yet it goes beyond
Warning: boring review :)
This must have been something like my 10th safari and is Natasha always the one that make the magic happen. Reservations have always been smooth and not only on the camps itself but also the transport in between camps or airport.
Warned you that this would be a boring review as I can only agree on the many good reviews written about Sun Safaris and their superb reservation manager, Natasha Allen.

Fantastic trip every time.
For the second year in a row I booked a group Safari with Sun Safaris. Natasha has been my contact and she has guided me through every aspect of the trip. Everything was perfect and all aspects of planning and enjoying our Safari was beyond my expectations. If you choose Sun Safaris and Natasha and you are guaranteed a fantastic experience.

Thank You Sun Safaris for a truly memorable experience!
Sun Safaris was recommended by relatives who used their services five years ago. Could not have been a better recommendation.Natasha Allen worked with us patiently, professionally, and with a good sense of humor to discover our needs and to build a safari experience second to none. Cannot say enough positives about the pre-trip planning and on-trip execution. It was a wonderful experience exceeding all expectations. And there were some pleasant surprises arranged to celebrate birthdays. Thanks to Natasha Allen and Sun Safaris for the trip of a lifetime.

A trip of a lifetime
This was our first time going on safari and we depended greatly on Natasha at Sun Safari for all of our accommodations, road transfers, tours and small aircraft reservations. The trip exceeded our highest expectations, with every lodge and hotel, tour guide and tracker, being outstanding, professional and of the highest quality. We had not a moment of stress despite having numerous arrangements in a country unknown to us. Natasha handled every detail with professional skill and we can recommend her highly.

No Worries !!!!!
Recently worked with Natasha from Sun Safaris on booking two camps, Africa on Foot and Senalala. I simply cannot say enough about Natasha. She truly handled everything at no extra cost! Booking a safari can be a daunting experience but I can assure you it is totally worry free with Sun Safaris.
Africa on Foot was very nice for what it is, which is an older camp offering "on foot" walking safaris. The food was good the staff was very responsive.
Senalala was excellent!!! You can tell the staff really enjoy working with each other, the fod was excellent and the guides were great. This is a very nice camp with a water hole just across an dried river bed (at the time). Both nights we were there the lions serenaded us to sleep. A great bunch of people here.

Wonderful Team to Find Just the Right Safari!
In 2015, friends and I decided to go on safari, found the Sun Safaris website, booked with them, and have worked with them ever since. Their team of experts works quickly to find us just the right safari that fits our budget. What I really like about this team is that they send along a number of different options for lodges, ensuring that the criteria of the lodges are met (e.g., Internet access, credit cards, good game viewing, excellent accommodations and food, etc.). Specifically, once we booked a lodge, Sun Safaris worked extremely well with us to communicate to the lodges requests that we had. For example, we requested a particular game ranger and specific rooms, both of which Sun Safaris requested of the lodge. Any questions we had about individual lodges was immediately answered. A friend and I recently booked a two-lodge safari with Sun Safaris--both of which amazingly wonderful and fit our expectations (and budget!) completely. As return customers, the Sun Safari team knows the criteria around which we select our lodges, and they are extremely efficient in organizing all details from transfers, to specific rooms, to specific game rangers. They know the lodges well as they visit them to ensure the quality of the experience is top-notch. I want to give a big shout out to Natasha Allen and Michelle Astbury, both of whom who worked so professionally with us across the years. I really appreciate how the booking and payment are easy, and the details around arrival/departure, package details, etc. are fully explained. In future safaris (and there will be a number more), the Sun Safaris team will be the first I will contact!

Perfect safari
My girlfriend and I had a amazing safari and this is thanks to Natasha Allen from Sunsafari. After listening to our needs, she found a nice camp for us in the greater Kruger (Shindzela camp). The camp had everything we wanted and fits our needs perfectly. The communications with Natasha was clear, and we always had wuick and professional reply. We would deal with her again anytime.
Thanks to her

It was an amazing experience in all facets
I found the Africa on Foot camp so wonderful. The staff were fantastic, I liked the fact that we blended into the surroundings (the cabins and layout)without the five star fanfare. And the food was very good without being lavish, satisfying and plenty of it. The size of the groups was also very enjoyable.
I saw four out of five of the big ones, no elephants sadly but I had seen them on my previous trip in their natural habitat.
I did a walking tour which was amazing, I learnt so much. No one else wanted to walk so it was just the guide and myself. We didn’t see any big animals, I had already seen them the previous day, but I learnt a lot about critters, the trees, the patterns of the animals.
I really had a wonderful experience with nothing to criticise.

Extremely responsive, very flexible, unbeatable rates and so friendly!
I absolutely recommend sunsafaris and Natasha in particular! She's extremely responsive, answers all your questions literally within minutes. And nothing is too much to ask, you decide what you want and they get it done for you. They also showed us very kind flexibility when we wanted to make some changes later to both camps and transfers, much appreciated! People often think you pay for using an agent but the opposite is actually true, we got better rates than if we had booked the lodges/camps directly and you get the dedicated help of an experienced on the ground agent on top. Plus, Natasha is just very friendly, a pleasure to communicate with! Don't hesitate to send them your business!
