Best Private Safari in South Africa!
My family and I spent 5 nights with Shaun on safari and have to say that we thoroughly enjoyed it... His knowledge of the attractions was good, but his wildlife knowledge is first class! My family and I learned so much about the small things that we never knew to even look for and we have been self driving inside Kruger for years... I can recommend his services to international and local travelers alike, all in all worth every penny

A never to forget experience that will always be etch in memory
Incredible knowledge about the environment. Delivery of service was extraordinary and exceeded my expectations. The safari tour was more than one could have dreamed of with every need and expectation met, right down to every meal served. And the little touches like the blankets, early morning and late afternoon game drive snacks. Every detail was thought threw for comfort and enjoyment. I loved the spoiling in the bush.

An unforgettable experience of a lifetime.
This trip exceeded our Safari expectations. Moriti Private Safaris is the best! Shaun was a pleasure, he made our first time in South Africa a truly unforgettable one. The accommodations were exceptionable, food incredible, sights remarkably beautiful and guide a true delight to spend time with. His knowledge was that of someone who holds a true respect to all of natures beauty. Shaun was very flexible in our schedule and took a vested interest in all of our desires for the trip. Would never consider booking with anyone else. Can't wait to book our next adventure!

Amazing Experience
Our experience with Moriti Private Safaris easily surpassed our expectations.
From the moment we arrived in South Africa, Shaun - our guide - made sure that all of our needs were met. The accommodations were stunning, and the food was spectacular. Shaun was easy-going, professional and extremely knowledgeable. What we most appreciated was his genuine care about the environment. From the most obscure riverside onion, to majestic elephants, Shaun provided us with the opportunity to interact with the bush in ways we never imagined. I would not hesitate in recommending Moroti to anyone who is looking for an intimate, ecologically friendly Safari.
We will be back.

Fun for everyone with an experienced in personal guide
Have been coming to South Africa since 2002. I have done many safaris in Kruger Park. This is by far the most exciting fun experience I have had in the bush. The guide was very knowledgeable and experienced, while also being extremely accommodating to the people on our trip. Next time I'm up for Safari I will not choose any other.
We started out with a guide named Shaun, we ended up leaving a good friend behind.

As the South Africans would say, it was lovely and couldn't have asked for anything better.
Our guide Shaun became like part of our family and will remember him for life. The living quarters were great and couldn't have asked for better meals, the cook was fabulous. Shaun was a great tour guide telling us about the animals and vegetation of the area. Thank you for the greatest Safari ever.

Personal attention with surprising added extras and an eye for detail!
From our initial e-mail correspondence, follow up phone calls, up to our arrival with my 7 American Guest, that had a Huge expectancy from their Very first SA Bush experience, to me, an experienced guide and been exposed to the industry to many, it all was all very detailed and professional, and although we knew exactly what the detailed and informative program held for the upcoming few days, yet, as from our arrival, we were spoiled with little extras of detail, from the detailed bush knowledge from our personal guide and host, (The Game drives, sundowners, walks, bush interaction, snacks on board, etc!!) to our amazing spread of interesting meals (Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner), prepared by our own amazing talented chef! In one sentence, an truly one of a kind unique Bush experience that brought us right to the touching distance to nature as it should have been, but with the luxuries and oversight of an expert owner/host/guide, that has been in this industry for years! It is Owner run, and it shows, in a Very Positive way!! Well done Moriti Private Safaris! Keep it up!

The ultimate, authentic safari you always dreamed of!
We just returned home from our week long Moriti Private Safari, I am pleased to say it exceeded our expectations in every way! The owner and guide Shaun Taylor, is a wonderful young man who has a deep knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of the bush. His care and attention to every detail made this trip a dream come true! We saw so much, learned so much, and ate so much wonderful food that the week couldn't have been any better. Our private chef, Lindsey cooked up delicious dishes at every meal, and we enjoyed her company along with Shaun and the other support staff. The accommodations were five star all the way, and I would highly recommend this company for your dream safari!

A wonderful trip of a lifetime!
We took a wonderful 7 day trip with Moriti Private Safaris with our private guide & owner Shaun Taylor. Shaun was a very friendly & informative guide and his knowledge, interest as well as love & respect for the animals was contagious. It was a prefect trip for us and our 4 teen/ young adult kids. They loved it as we did!! Learning to track & find animals, riding up front of the safari vehicle and just watching the amazing animals ( elephants,giraffe,zebra,rhino,hippos, impala,etc,etc) in their natural habitat was amazing & very special! We stayed at wonderful lodges- Angela's camp was a private sanctuary in an amazing spot over looking the Sabie river & we were treated to a roaring fire after our night drives & gourmet meals by our private chef Lindsay!! Wished we could have stayed longer!! Laughing Waters was another very special spot and we were so welcomed & cared for by the wonderful couple who owed it. They even helped my son out with his camera and made my birthday extra special!
Our only regret was not staying on safari longer & seeing lions. Thanks Shaun for a great trip!! We would love to go back & highly recommend it!!

Extraordinary, exciting experience.
What an amazing week we spent on safari with Shaun from Moriti Safaris.He was extremely patient and helpful from the time we first emailed him regarding the safari until we finally made all the changes and included other activities we wanted.
Shaun treated us to a fantastic safari. His knowledge of everything from the big 5 to the small 5 and everything in between including birds and plants is outstanding. He truly cares for the bush and animals, has a deep understanding of animal behaviour and how everything in the bush fits together into the ecosystem. He passes on his knowledge in a fun but informative way.
We had exciting morning and evening safaris every day seeing lots of animals each time. Mother nature and Shaun really looked after us.
The pride of lions eating the buffalo had to be a highlight. We sat extremely close to watch them eating. It was because of Shauns knowledge that he followed the lone lion from the water hole to the kill.
We were treated to sundowners watching a herd of elephant cross the river and babies playing in the mud at the edge of the river.
Seeing Wild dog didn’t mean a lot to us until Shaun told us how few there are in the park and how incredibly lucky we were to actually sit with them.
Even sitting in camp we were able to watch an abundance of animals at the waterhole and enjoyed the wort-hog family who made themselves at home around camp.
Our accommodation on the way to Camp George was stunning. Flycatcher castle will never be forgotten and the source of many laughs forever. Marnies hospitality was second to none.Laughing Waters also treated us well with a bonus night safari and delicious meals. Finally Camp George is a wonderful place to stay with lots of space both indoor and out.
Lindsay ensured that we didn’t go hungry by cooking fabulous meals three times a day with snacks for on safari. Her meals were so delicious we all had to loosen our belts by the end of our stay.
Shaun looked after our every need from the time he picked us up until he dropped us back at our accommodation. We felt like we left a long time friend when we said goodbye.
We highly recommend Shaun and Moriti Safaris for an experience that couldn’t be surpassed.
