Excellent safari experience. Natasha was amazing at helping me with everything!
We had a FABULOUS time on safari in the Greater Kruger in South Africa.
The staff at both camps (Xanatseni and Tangala) were very friendly and helpful.
The lodge and tents were beautiful and the camps themselves were super nice.
Our drivers and trackers were so good at their jobs.
We were able to see the Big Five and the Ugly Five along with many more animals, including rare wild dogs.
We got up close and personal with all of the animals. We were amazed at the way the trackers were able to find hidden animals, like many lions and leopards.
We were also able to see baby elephants, lions, hippos, buffalos, and also a baby leopard. I loved watching the babies playing and trying to do as their mothers were doing.
Overall, this was much better than I could have ever imagined and the best trip ever.
Thank you so much to Natasha for booking this trip. She always responded to all of my questions and issues promptly.
Everything went very smoothly, and I didn't have to worry about anything.
I will definitely recommend you and your company to my friends and other family members.

Ticked all the boxes we sought in a Botswana holiday
Brett organised a bespoke tour for our family based on a few requests to see diverse locations, learn about the local culture and to have an adventure that engaged the family . The tour fulfilled all our requests and exceeded our expectations. The camps were exactly what we sought, being small personable and unique and well situated in the game areas. The days allocated to each was great and we didn’t feel we missed out anywhere. Unbelievable wildlife including lions, zebra migrating, leopard, elephants and hippos. Each destination on the tour gave us opportunities to see different ecological zones and life. We didn’t have any hitches with transfers despite moving between several locations by land air and boat. Great value and reliable service. We would highly recommend sunsafaris to others and already are looking to book another holiday!

Brett is knowledgeable and has terrific connections
Everything was incredible, for me it was truly a transformative experience. Everyone I met was polite, helpful and loved sharing their knowledge. They created lasting memories and I saw amazing animals, experienced super close encounters and was witness to nature at work in the bush. This was my first time as a solo traveler on a different continent; I was well cared for and felt safe the entire month of my journey. My heart is so happy!

All was perfect..
Our Safaris where gréât and so was the choice of camps.
The timing was respected and the staff in the camps very professional and sympathetic.
We certainly recommand to spend 3 night in each camp to have time to apprecciate the fauna and the service
Provided by the staff. .

Extremely knowledgeable and helpful!
Natasha was an absolute pleasure to work with. We were travelling with a group of 13 and she made our entire trip effortless. Even when we had airline delays from the U.S. she changed our internal flights in S.A. without any issues.
We did 2 different safaris and then 6 days in Cape Town. We didn't have to worry about a thing, Natasha had taken care of every little detail for us. Would highly recommend using Sun Safari's for your best vacation ever!!

Sun Safaris (Brett) was excellent to work with her extremely knowledgeable,competent & communicative
Brett was extremely reliable, prompt with answers to questions and very knowledgeable. We had researched where we wanted to go and he booked our safari and air travel for less than we could directly. His arrangements and communication took all the stress out of going on an unfamiliar kind of trip. We would highly recommend Brett and Sun Safaris based on this experience (and Sun Safaris was recommended to us by a friend who was also a very satisfied customer.)

Excellent City & Bush Holiday Experience!
We worked with Natasha at Sun Safaris to plan our 12 day ‘City and Bush’ family holiday. Our trip exceeded expectations! We loved Cape Town, the Cape Peninsula and the Wine Country. The Lawhill Apartments in Cape Town were an excellent choice - well located in the V&A Waterfront, nicely appointed, clean and excellent guest services. Natasha coordinated transfers and day trips in Cape Town and for the Safari camps - all very professional and knowledgeable.
Our safari experience was fantastic. Simbambili Game Lodge at Sabi Sands was a highlight of our trip - it was wonderful and I would not have changed a thing. The staff, food, environment, bush drives - everything - was absolutely perfect! We also enjoyed Jackalberry Lodge. Between the two lodges we saw so many animals and learned so much.
Natahsa was such a pleasure to work with and her knowledge of Cape Town and Safari was so helpful. She was very responsive, and coordinated all of the details that resulted in a memorable, seamless holiday experience. I highly recommend Natasha and will definitely use Sun Safaris again when we are ready to plan our next adventure!

Very professional.
Great agency. We worked with Natasha to set up a honeymoon safari tour around Botswana at very short notice. She set up a wonderful agenda with stops in Setari, Linyanti and Khwai. The lodges, guides and transfers were all perfect. Very good experience.

My first trip to Africa.
I was totally dependent on my friends knowledge of Africa & Brett from Sun Safari’s suggestions. All were exceptional.

Brett planned a flawless trip from start to finish - just EXCEPTIONAL!
This trip began with my childhood friend asking me to take her to Africa - her lifelong dream. I had been before - using SunSafaris - so I worked with Brett to put together this trip. 2020 - 2021 - COVID derailed our plans - 20222 - we were going big. I added five days - beginning with a fabulous stay at the Dutch Farm House/Gardens/Mts of Babylonstoren in Franschhoek. Brett suggested three nights which was the call - we eased into our trip with fantastic views - food - wine and outstanding accommodations.
Then Cape Town - Steve our driver to Bablonstoren provided commentary all the way so we planned a full day trip with him once back in Cape Town - capped off by his selection of an outstanding place for lunch on the water and a visit to the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens.
Then Safaris in the Private Reserves of South Africa - Zimbabwe and Victoria Falls - and Botswana's Chobe National Park. Every lodge -every person - every drive - every transfer - EXCEPTIONAL ! So well organized - we had the best time. We were three gals traveling. Two of us had been before - for my friend on her first trip to Africa, when we asked her her thoughts - she said "I only have one regret - that I did not do this sooner."
