Our first safari
My wife and I had a wonderful time on our first safari. All the staff that we met were more than helpful . We had a chance to see and learn about a lot of interesting things. We will certainly pass our experience on to our friends and family so maybe they can enjoy a trip like we did.

Stunning and bucket list once in a lifetime experience.
Had an amazing safari with Junglers Adventure tours. From start to finish organization and booking was easy. It was a private tour so felt very special. Our guides Eric and Bertjan were amazing, knowledgeable, friendly but professional and great fun. I had some amazing vegetarian dishes especially those cooked by the guides. The wildlife we see was out of this world, seeing the top 4 within an hour and lions the next day. An amazing leopard encounter, a lion couple on honeymoon and watching vultures and hyenas devour a kill stolen off some cheetahs. The guides were patient and allowed us plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the experience. I will never forget this experience and thank them for making my childhood dreams come to life and feel like I was David Attenborough.

Amazing country with lots of different qualities
We spent time in Cape Town, which is a beautiful city. It has its poorer side, as do all major cities, but is an amazing place to visit. The culture, Table Mountain and the waterfront are some of the highlights. Langa township is well worth a visit.
We then spent 4 days in the Kruger National Park and saw most of the wild animals that we wanted to see. Only the leopard remained illusive. Lots of lions with cubs, elephants, rhino's, giraffes and zebra to name a few. An amazing experience. Totally recommended.
South Africa is an amazing country.

South Africa is a country with great cultural and wildlife diversity.
Due to a flight change, we ended up with an extra day in Johannesburg, so we did a private one-day trip in Pilanesberg Park. The trip was very well organized and our guides were knowledgeable and very entertaining. It was a great way to spend a day.

Nice View, Various Tourist Attraction and Mostly Nice People
I was told before visiting South Africa that it is a dangerous country. But after visiting for 10 days, I would say it's not true. As long as you always alert, not taking only photos, you will find South Africa is a nice country that you should visit. Not only a beautiful country with a various activities (eg, sunset cruise, safari, etc), the cost of living is comparatively cheap. The most important thing I experienced from this trip is, South African people are so friendly, kindly and helpful.

Ivory Wilderness was Wonderful
We spent 4 days at Ivory Wilderness camp on the Klaserie River - just south of Kruger I have been on safari many times and this was as good as it gets. Animals everywhere. Lions, leopards, elephants, Rhinos, buffalo, hippo, wild dogs, hyena and a wonderous array of antelope. We even did a bush walk and encountered elephants. Frightening and exhilarating at the same time. The lodge was great with great food and atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Amazing trip
We are truly devastated that we have had to return to the UK.
Our stay at Greenfire lodge was absolutely fantastic and we can't wait to return. Everything from the collect at Johannesburg Airport to our return was 100%. Lavender at moafrika tours took our booking and from.the beginning I felt confident in the company.

It was a dream!
It was the most stunning beautiful trip and our first Safari but not the last for sure. We dreamt the eyes wide open.
Thank you a million for all your assistance and advises.
Looking for the next safari in Botswana maybe this time.
The best of all Worlds
Visiting SA for the first time, we didn't have any expectations, but what an amazing experience we were in for. Every day was a new adventure for us, and had us in awe each time.
Cape Town, was a dream, picturesque in every corner. Cuddled by the mountains on one side and an untouched Atlantic ocean on the other.
It was such an amazing chilled vibe, allowing you take life a little slow and soak it all in.
A little drive to Kalk Bay (colorful sea side town filled with cute little shops and boutique restaurants) to see some African Penguins in their natural habitat, via the beautiful Chapmans Peak, with a view of the South Atlantic ocean.
Be prepared for all weather conditions.
Rigter after we flew over to Johannesburg and opted for the 5 day Kruger Park Safari, and we were defnitley not disappointed.
Kruger National Park showed off in the best way posisble, giving us a view of the BIG 5 everyday but all in different settings.
We were blessed with our guide, Hoppy. His knowledge of the park was incredible, spotting the big 5 and alot of other animals, that the naked eye would have missed. Kruger National Park has some beautiful birds (normally overlooked by people only looking for the big 5), but he would point out their beautiful colors and sounds, and we would just get immersed.
He made sure that we had all our meals and stayed in some amazing properties, the first with a view of the hippos just chilling as they normally would, literally 15m away, and where elephants would come to graze as well.
We did a sunset tour while we stayed within the reserve at Satara, where we were literally a foot away from a Lion, just taking a nap, which would later come to have a sip of water just by the reserve.
On the way back, Hoppy took us along the Panorama Route, which is a whole other world of beautiful mountain ranges and lakes and colorful townships.
Thanks to Hoppy, we saw and learned so much more, and he gave us the time to just sometimes sit and enjoy it for awhile.
