Fantastic short safari
5/5

I booked a 2 night safari from Johannesburg, staying at greenfire and I had the time of my life. The transfers from my hotel in Johannesburg to the lodge gate, and back again were excellent and most importantly easy. The lodge itself was brilliant (12 out 10 recommend greenfire). Communication with Wayne was great, he was responsive and checked in on me during my stay. I was travelling for work so didn't want to think too hard over the weekend and Wayne and the team ment it was a wonderful weekend.

Excellent
5/5

I recently had the privilege of staying at Kruger Safari, and it truly exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home.
The camp itself is set in a stunning location, surrounded by nature and wildlife, providing an authentic safari experience.

Our tented accommodations were spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully.

The game drives were the highlight of our stay. Ours guides were incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and skilled at tracking wildlife. We saw an amazing variety of animals, including the Big Five, and the early morning and late afternoon drives gave us the perfect oppties to witness wildlife at its most active.

The meals were delicious. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, making each meal a memorable experience.

Thanks for all.

Excellent Service and communication
5/5

When my family decided on a safari for vacation, I immediately became overwhelmed with the options and locations available within Africa. Several inquiries with other companies just did not feel right. But from the minute I found Wayne with Kruger Safari Co, I knew I had found the right company. His communication was excellent in regards to the many questions I had and I felt no pressure at all to book. Our family spent 4 nights at Umkumbe Bush Lodge with a goal of seeing the Big 5. We flew from Johannesburg to Skukuza and from there were taken to our lodging. Umkumbe is located within Sabi Sand private game reserve and provides luxury tent glamping. When I say luxury, I mean air conditioning, turn down service, daily wake ups for the early morning game drives, wet towels for face and hands waiting for you when you arrive from the game drives and so much more. The location felt small and private as there are only 11 “tents”, there is a nice pool and bar at the treehouse with an overlook to an open field for game viewing, the food was very good and plentiful, the guides and trackers were knowledgeable funny, and very accommodating to our requests to try to see specific animals. The animal encounters are VERY close and I am excited to say that we saw the Big 5! I cannot recommend this experience enough as it met and exceeded all of our expectations.

Super helpful - handled everything!
5/5

We found Wayne and The Kruger Safari Co. as we were online trying to sort through the many venues, options, and types of safari adventures and accommodations online. We reached out to Wayne for guidance, and he took it from there! He patiently and promptly answered all our many questions, provided thoughtful suggestions, and guided us to the PERFECT all-inclusive stay for our family of eight adults. It was fabulous - - accommodations were lovely, food was delicious, safaris were exciting and fun. Everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful time. Many thanks to The Kruger Safari Co for setting up the vacation-of-a-lifetime for our whole family!

5* service from start to finish
5/5

The service we received from Kruger safari co from making enquires to completing our trip was flawless. We received fast responses to any questions and they even picked us up and dropped us off at our airport hotel at no extra cost.
The safari tours were very well organised and we saw so many animals on every day. The Adventure lodge was also fantastic with great food. I can not fault anything during our 5 day stay.

Excellent experience with Kruger Safari Co.
5/5

We booked our first-ever safari through Kruger Safari Co. We dealt with Wayne, who was excellent from start to finish — from booking to answering our questions and ensuring the trip went smoothly.

The safari was an unbelievable experience, and everything went exactly as planned.

If we ever go on another safari, we’ll be sure to use Kruger Safari Co. again.

Provided exactly what we needed
5/5

We were lost with the vast amount of options available for our South African safari. After reaching out to several companies, it was clear Kruger Safari Co and specifically Wayne would provide the best guidance and most attention to help us. Communication was easy and fast with Wayne and he provided us with multiple safari options to choose from. Everything we needed between Johannesburg airport and our room at Greenfire Game Lodge was taken care of for us. We saw the Big 5 on our first drive although we understand that is uncommon and not to be expected with a single drive. We saw more animals than we’d ever expect and witnessed rhinos fighting, lions chasing hyenas away from their dinner, and many other scenes I only expected to see on TV. Our guide Victor was able to find animals on every drive and provide information on everything we saw or had questions about. The food at the lodge was some of the best meals I’ve had from any travel experience and found that to be true across South Africa. I would recommend Kruger Safari CO. to any of my friends or family to match you with the best safari available at your price range.

Amazing Experience
5/5

We recently had an unforgettable safari with Kruger Safari Co. From the beginning Wayne simplified the process and made sure we had the safari that was right for us. On arrival Carol greeted us with staff and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. I can't say enough about the staff at Kruger Safari Co. They are so welcoming, friendly, and attentive always there to make sure your needs are met. The food was exceptional for every meal. It was like dining three times a day at Michelin rated restaurants.
Victor our guide for the entirety of our 5-day, 4-night stay was delightful, knowledgeable, and passionate. Victor's expertise and understanding of the land, following tracks, and overall disposition made our time exceptional.

I cannot recommend Victor and the Kruger Safari Co highly enough for an unmatched safari that will leave you with cherished memories and a full heart to last a lifetime!
