Fantastic week in the Kruger National Park with the very knowledgeable Chris
We had a fantastic week in the central and northern parts of KNP with Chris determined that we would see as much as possible! We had been on many self drive trips to KNP before but having a very knowledgeable guide adds a further dimension to your holiday experience. Chris and his assistant Scumboso looked after us very well and nothing was too much trouble for them Our booking had been handled very well over e mail by Thale and all communication was swift and Thale patiently dealt with all our requests and answered all our questions. The whole week was very well organised from our transfer from Joburg airport to our drop off at Hoedspruit airport for our flight to Cape Town An unforgettable experience and I have recommended Wild Planet Safari to my friends and colleagues

Wild Planet Safari guide was Ryan, who was the most informative, knowledgeable, friendly person.
This was our first safari, and we went with no expectations. But if we had any, then they surely would have been exceeded ! Four of us booked the 11 day safari from north to south Kruger. We stayed at different camps during our trip. Ryan and Josh were the best ! Cooking our meals and clearing up afterwards ! They both worked so hard to make our safari one of the best things we have ever done ! Ryan’s knowledge of the animals and birds, and also the different areas that we travelled through, was amazing ! The four of us learnt so much and it is no exaggeration to say that we saw just about every animal species possible during our 11 days, from a roaring male lion (right next to the safari vehicle !), to a baby giraffe, just a few hours old and struggling to stand ! If we were to ever return to do another safari, then Wild Planet would be our first choice. We had the best time, and really cannot put into words how beyond amazing the whole experience was ! Thank you Ryan, for a truly perfect experience ! We are still watching our videos and looking at some wonderful photos, which I don’t think we will ever tire from looking at ! With regard to the cost of the safari, we think it was exceptional value for money. It was just us four, and included just about all of our meals, all the camps, and we also included a night drive, overnight in a hide, and a bush walk. And the personal touch was great, from collecting us at Johannesburg airport, to taking us back there at the end of our safari. All included in the price. Thank you Wild Planet !

This safari was incredible!
Wild Planet Safari was absolutely incredible. We went on the four day safari, and our guides Chris and Hopeson were amazing. We were able to see all animals and the Big Five - ranging from rhinos, lions, cheetahs, buffalo, zebras, giraffes, and beyond. Chris and Hopeson were very knowledgable and provided us with a lot of information about Kruger, the animals, and the flora of the park. The food Chris and Hopeson cooked was also delicious - some of the best meals that I have ever eaten. I would recommend this safari to everyone!! It was life changing. We had the best time ever and can't thank Wild Planet Safari, Chris, and Hopeson enough for our amazing experience.

Our first Safari Experience
This was our first safari experience and it was amazing. After reading the various great reviews we selected Wild Planet Safari. To be honest, at the beginning we were a bit worried to pay all that money to a foreigner country but we took the risk and it was a good decision. From OR Tambo airport we were booked on a shared transfer service to Kruger park (5 hours drive). As soon as we reached Kruger we met Ryan and his assistent and the tour started. We were really exited as we spotted the first animals just about 1 hour after driving. Accomodation were very good, arrangments, meals and company was super. To be honest everything exided our expectation. Thank you everyone for this great experince.

The trip was amazing and really great.
It has been a pleasure to travel with wild planet safari. It has been 14 incredible fun and pleasant days. I have learned a lot. I did not know what I looked forward to, because I did not know anything. But the journey and everything was really great. I would recommend Wild Planet safari to anyone who wants to go on a safari.
