4-daagse Kruger National Park-tour

The tour is very well organized: transportation, accommodation and of course activities on reserves. J1 Pickup at the airport for transfer to Hoedspruit (6h). There we are greeted by David who drives us to the camp after a quick lunch. Set up camp in a superb lodge tent, with every comfort. Departure for the Sunset safari. From the first day we see many animals: giraffes, impalas, wildebeest, zebras, rhinoceros, and even lions! Dinner at camp with Lloyd and David. Gladys has regaled us with South African specialties. D2 Cruise on the Blyde river very well despite a sullen weather and visit the rehabilitation center where we see two beautiful white lions. D3 leaves at dawn with Lloyd for Kruger Park. We meet a lot of animals, a herd of elephants with babies, birds and even a pack of wild dogs. Lloyd is a passionate and exciting guide. It's been an exceptional day. Day four, morning walk with Lloyd. We follow the fresh tracks of the animals. And always full of exciting explanations. Back to Hoedspruit with David. Many thanks to you 3 for your welcome and these wonderful moments of discovery and sharing. I highly recommend.

They take care of EVERYTHING. They show up on time, scoop you from where you are, and provide such a smooth itinerary that is easy to follow and incredibly informative. I can't think of any other tours I've taken across the globe that were as worth it as this one.

The “4-Day Safari” at Kruger Park proved quite disappointing The reality is it was just two days. The first day was lost in the rather awkward journey from Johannesburg. Upon arrival we were taken straight to the “sunset safari” that was a fiasco: we went round a private reserve where there were no animals expected, or at least we didn’t see them. Then, when we went to the accommodation, we were not given the one we had hired but a substandard one, in a camp next to the one hired, with the additional discomfort of having to move the next day. When we finally got to the contracted room, it didn’t even have soap or shampoo (neither delivered later, when we noticed it), and at no time was it cleaned. The hot tub (or whatever it is called) was also not available. The food was mediocre. The last day we were only taken on a half-hour absurd hike up a hill without any attraction, and from there we were taken on the bus back to Johannesburg (a completely lost day). Specifically we only had one day in Kruger Park, which got short and did not allow us to see the different animals. The camp is far from the park (an hour's drive) and you lose a lot of time on the road, as well as having to leave the park very early and miss the best hours. The “cruise” the day before was in a beautiful place, but we saw neither crocodiles nor hippos as promised.

Thank you so much for some amazing days in South Africa! We can highly recommend a trip to Kruger with Lloyd and David – knowledgeable, warm-hearted, and welcoming hosts. You shared your knowledge in an incredibly engaging way. We're heading back to Norway with great memories and unforgettable experiences! Thank you from Cathrine and Nikolai.

This 4 day experience was unforgetable. Lloyd and David were personable and accommodating hosts. It was the trip of a lifetime. We enjoyed that this itinerary had diversity from the private game drive, to the day in Kruger Park, visit to the wildlife rehabilitation center, and even the boat river cruise in Blyde River Canyon. We stayed in the luxury tent accommodation which was very unique and unlike anything I have ever experienced. The home cooked breakfasts and dinners were also incredible. We had a chance to appreciate South Africa from different perspectives in nature, animals, and even from the cuisine. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to embrace South African culture.

The 4-day / 3-nights experience with Lloyd & team was absolutely fantastic and we'd recommend it without reservations. Everything went smoothly. I travelled with my mother. We found the package had the perfect schedule for us. We loved seeing the animals, the beautiful landscapes and learned so much. Kruger was amazing of course, but it was also really nice to get to see Blyde River Canyon, the wildlife rehab centre, meeting such lovely people, go on a bush walk and on the sunset safari at a private game reserve nearby. We also really enjoyed the lovely space for breakfast and cozy campfire atmosphere by the lake in the evenings. Lloyd was extremely accommodating with my coeliac disease and all the food was prepared safely gluten free and delicious. Travelling as a coeliac can be challenging and I will forever be grateful to the team for making this very special experience possible and adjusting to my dietary requirements. Thank you Safarii team, we hope to be back!

Excelent experience. Lloyd and David were deeply kind and had incredible knowledge on both the area and the animals around. Strong recommend!

Excellent tour, we met and saw many wild animals, of the big 5 we lacked the rhino, Lloyd and David's attention was exceptional, rich food and quantity.

We recently had the privilege of embarking on a meticulously curated four-day program that perfectly balanced adventure, exploration, and intimate encounters with South Africa’s stunning natural and cultural heritage. From magical safaris to awe-inspiring landscapes and meaningful experiences, this journey was unforgettable. A special thanks goes to David and Lloyd, whose outstanding planning and warm, attentive care ensured a seamless and enriching experience from start to finish. Day 1: Magical Sunset Safari in a Private Game Reserve Our journey began with a sunset safari in a private game reserve, setting the tone for the days ahead. At sunset, we encountered many animals as rhinos grazing peacefully, nimble impalas, and warthogs scurrying playfully. Day 2: A Full-Day Safari in Kruger National Park Day two was entirely devoted to exploring the world-famous Kruger National Park, and it exceeded all expectations. With David and Lloyd’s careful planning, we were accompanied by a skilled and knowledgeable guide Goodman, who ensured we didn’t miss a single moment of the park’s wonders. The day unfolded with unforgettable sightings: elephants splashing playfully at a waterhole and lions lounging in the shade. The combination of breathtaking wildlife and expert guidance made this safari an unparalleled experience. Day 3: Moholoholo Animal Rehabilitation Centre and Blyde River Canyon Our third day began with a visit to the Moholoholo Animal Rehabilitation Centre, a facility dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating injured and orphaned wildlife. During the tour, we learned about the center’s important conservation efforts. The highlight was meeting some of the animals up close, including a black leopard and a majestic eagle. The passionate team at Moholoholo inspired us with their commitment to protecting South Africa’s wildlife, leaving us with appreciation for the hard work involved in conservation. After the visit, we journeyed to the Blyde River Canyon, one of South Africa’s most breathtaking natural landmarks. The green cliffs and sweeping views of the canyon were astonishing. A boat cruise along the Blyde Dam offered a unique perspective on this stunning landscape, spotting crocodiles sunning themselves and hippos bobbing near the surface. Our guide’s insights into the canyon’s geology and ecosystems added depth to the experience, making it both visually and intellectually enriching. Day 4: Nature Walk and Hidden Wonders Around the Lodge Our final day was a exploration of the natural world surrounding our accommodation. A guided nature walk allowed us to slow down and marvel at the small but equally fascinating details of the bush. Lloyd introduced us to the industrious lives of termites, the shimmering beauty of beetles, and the vibrant colors of local birdlife. The walk was a perfect conclusion to our journey, offering a deeper understanding of the ecosystem and a sense of connection to the wilderness. Exceptional Planning and Warm Hospitality What truly elevated this experience was the exceptional planning and genuine care provided by David and Lloyd. Their attention to detail was remarkable—from ensuring seamless transitions between activities to arranging knowledgeable and passionate guides who enriched every moment. Their warm hospitality made us feel valued and cared for throughout the trip, adding a personal touch that made the experience unforgettable. We left South Africa with a deep sense of wonder and appreciation for its natural and cultural treasures. We cannot recommend this program highly enough—it is more than a journey; it is an experience that will stay with you forever.

We had the most Fantastic experience in the Kruger Park with SAFARII TRAVEL They organised transport from Johannesburg to the park (Hoedspruit)and back. Our Hosts Lloyd, David,Trista gave us such a great time. Lloyd is passionate about his work - he shared his amazing knowledge about all the animals, birds & fauna. We got to see the big 5. We went to a rehabilitation centre to see how they cared for injured animals. The boat ride on Blyde River Canyon was spectacular. On our last day we went on a Bush walk with Lloyd where he pointed out various plants, carcasses that leopards and hyenas had eaten. We stayed in a 2 bedroom luxury tent with bathroom and kitchen- this was very comfortable. Every night Lloyd and Trista cooked us an amazing large dinner- traditional South African food. You won’t starve! We can’t recommend them enough if you want an AMAZING EXPERIENCE in the Kruger Park.
