Outstanding safari experience
Thanks for the kind words Trienie! Much appreciated and hope to see you back soon
We booked through Viator, but unfortunately due to unexpected last minute changes to our lodging, we were unable to attend. The guide was extremely understanding and allowed us to cancel the night before, even after the cancelation window.
Thank you so much for the kind review. Although we were disappointed not to have you join us on safari, we completely understand that travel plans can change unexpectedly. We always try to be as flexible and accommodating as possible when situations arise beyond our guests’ control. We truly appreciate your communication and hope that when you are back in the Hoedspruit area, we’ll have the opportunity to take you out on an unforgettable safari experience with All or Nothing Adventures. Safe travels and hope to meet you in future some time
We always book a private game drive with Jakes when visiting Hoedspruit. Scenic drive in a comfortable safari vehicle. Fabulous Rhino and Lion sightings a specialty in this reserve. Jakes is a true expert on the natural world in this biosphere. He understands the animals and enables close encounters, whilst always ensuring safety of his guests. Tasty snacks and drinks with a sunset view and amazing stories about wildlife conservation in the reserve.
Thank you so much for your continued support and for choosing to join me on safari each time you visit Hoedspruit. It truly means a lot to have returning guests who share such a love and appreciation for the bush. Every drive is different, and it’s always rewarding to be able to share these incredible moments we had. The sunset stops, stories around conservation, and simply spending time out in nature with good company, are some of the things that make these experiences so special for me as well. Looking forward to welcoming you back again for many more adventures in the bush! Jakes All or Nothing Adventures
Brilliant evening safari with All or Nothing Adventures. Professional, knowledgeable guide, Jakes, well organised from start to finish. Memorable wildlife viewing and a great atmosphere. Highly recommended, and we’ll book again when we’re back in the area.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m really glad you enjoyed the sunset safari — it’s always a special time of day out in the bush. It was a pleasure sharing the experience with you and I truly appreciate your kind words about the organisation and guiding. Looking forward to welcoming you back for another adventure when you’re next in Hoedspruit! Warm regards, Jakes All or Nothing Adventures
Our safari with Jakes was truly unforgettable. From the very start, his calm yet engaging way of sharing his deep knowledge about the wildlife and environment made the experience so much more meaningful. We were treated to an incredible close encounter with a white rhino, watched a lion roar just meters from our vehicle, and had an elephant gracefully walk right past us – moments that felt straight out of a documentary. Beyond the breathtaking sightings, what stood out was Jakes’ passion for the ecosystem and his ability to explain the behaviors and connections between the animals and their surroundings. It wasn’t just a game drive, it was an education wrapped in adventure. Thank you, Jakes, for an experience we’ll be talking about for years to come!
Wow, what an incredible review — thank you! It was such a pleasure having you on safari, and I’m happy to hear the experience left such a strong impression. Those close-up moments with the big 5 really are something special, and I’m so glad we could share them. For me, it’s not just about ticking off sightings, but helping guests connect with the deeper story of the bush — so hearing that it felt both educational and adventurous means a lot. Hope our paths cross again out here in the wild!
Our private safari drive with Jakes was superb. He is a very experienced ranger, and tracker. The reserve is beautiful, with different ecological systems, and stunning views and trees. Jakes is extremely knowledgeable about wildlife, and the natural world. Incredible close rhino encounter with the Drakensberg mountains as backdrop. We loved every minute and already planning to do safaris with Jakes in the future. Thank you for the privilege and the memories.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Karen! It was truly a pleasure having you and your group on safari. I'm glad you enjoyed the diversity of the reserve and that unforgettable close-up moment with the rhino which was really a special moment indeed! Sharing my passion for wildlife and the natural world with guests like you is always an honour. I’m thrilled to hear you’re already planning another trip — I’ll be ready to take you on more incredible adventures when you return!
1000 thank you for this wonderful Night Safari!! Jack was great!! Hyper pedagogue, very helpful!! Jack is a passionate man and he passed on his passion to us!! I highly recommend it, it was fantastic
Bonjour! Thank you so much for your kind words — what a pleasure to read! We're so happy you enjoyed the safari. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure soon! Warm regards
The Safari was amazing, Collete is a professional attentive to every detail to serve your client well. You know the Leadwood State Gate reserve like no one else. He will really go after the animals and show you the best angle. About Leadwood, it's the wildest place we've been to in the Kruger region. I highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your safari and that Colette assisted with your booking. Leadwood — along with the greater Rietspruit Game Reserve — is indeed a special and untamed part of the Lowveld, and we're glad it left such a strong impression on you. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
We had a great experience with All or Nothing, from booking to safari with Jakes. We went as a family with our son of 4, for him this was also perfect in terms of experience and time. Nice to learn so much about the country, area and animals. In addition, the safari goes much more off the beaten track unlike for example Kruger, in short a top experience, Jakes and Colette thanks!
Thank you so much for your wonderful message! It was such a pleasure to take your family on safari, and I’m especially glad to hear your little one enjoyed it too — that makes it even more special. We always aim to create a more personal and off-the-beaten-path experience, so it's great to know that came through. Colette and I truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another adventure someday!
We went on a sunset Safari tour with Jakes as our guide. He was very informative and made good explanations about the animal life in the reserve. We had a magic encounter with four lions in the sunset and really enjoyed our tour.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure taking you out on the sunset safari. That moment with the four lions in the golden light was truly something special — I'm glad we got to share it. I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed the experience. Hope to see you again for another adventure in the wild!
