Safari Game Drive in Private Reserve out of Hoedspruit

Wild Wonder Safari Co. made our South Africa safari absolutely seamless from start to finish. Kallie handled all the planning and logistics beforehand — every detail was thought through, from timing to transfers, which took all the stress out of organising a trip like this. When one of our booked drives ran into an issue (the third-party vehicle broke down midway through), Kallie and Keegan sorted it out immediately and added a complimentary extra safari to make up for it — a great example of how seriously they take guest experience. Once we arrived in Hoedspruit, Keegan was outstanding. His knowledge of the bush, tracking skills, and ability to find incredible sightings across the reserve made every game drive feel special. He was patient, personable, and clearly passionate about what he does. Both Kallie and Keegan were incredibly warm and friendly throughout, which made the whole experience feel personal rather than just transactional. Between Kallie's planning, the way they handled a hiccup along the way, and Keegan's guiding, this was a five-star experience end to end. Highly recommend Wild Wonder Safari Co. to anyone planning a safari in the Kruger area.

Great experience!! There is a lot of supply in terms of game drives. These people are very friendly and responsive. We have spotted many animals, highly recommended

This was a once in a lifetime experience eating a 5 star dinner served in the bush - we were 500metres away from a pack of lions and behind a herd of zebra magical thank you

We were lucky to take part in two safaris organized by Wild Wonder Safari. Two very different experiences, in two different places, with two different guides – both in private reserves bordering Kruger National Park – and both absolutely amazing. The morning safari gave us the thrill of encountering a lion family and a beautiful cheetah, thanks to our driver staying in touch with others over the radio. Sightings were exciting, though the landscapes felt a bit more monotonous. The afternoon game drive, however, was pure magic thanks to our guide – Keegan. He took us to a stunning, peaceful spot by the river where we watched dozens, maybe even hundreds, of elephants! There was no noise of radios or other vehicles, just the two of us with Keegan in his brand-new, spotless safari vehicle. It was such a special experience. The scenery was breathtaking – despite the dry season, the riverbanks were lush and green. Truly beautiful. Keegan is a fantastic guide – warm, passionate, and deeply in love with wildlife. He has incredible knowledge of the bush and its inhabitants, and even after dark he managed to spot many well-hidden creatures. He also has a great sense of balance: knowing when to share information and when to simply let us enjoy the silence, the animals, and the magic of nature. Even though we’ve been on safaris before and heard many fascinating facts, we still learned new things from him. We loved our safari experience in South Africa so much that we’re already planning to come back in about a year and a half – and of course, we’ll be booking again with Kallie and Keegan! We will also happily share Wild Wonder Safari’s contact details with our friends and with our sons, who are also planning to visit this region.

From the minute you book Kallie is able to keep you updated about your trip I booked 2 trips and wasn’t disappointed with either I met Nick on my first trip who was very knowledgeable a really nice young man. On 2nd I met Keegan again very knowledgeable and again a very nice man. My trips were too Blue Canyon a massive reserve just outside Hoedspruit I was not disappointed on either trip the guide and tracker were really good at their job 1st trip we saw all the normal animals you would expect to find but we saw a special sighting of mum, son, daughter cheetah! 2nd trip we saw again all the animals you would expect to find and 2 more cheetah and my absolute favourite a leopard:) so if you would like to find the perfect tour guide company look no further than Kallie Keegan and Nick. I would 100% recommend these guys. Thank you too all 3 of you :( :(

It was such an amazing experience, highly recommend. Our tour guide and all the staff members were welcoming and friendly. They even provide education about the animals. CAN DEFINITELY DO IT AGAIN!!!!

Kegean gives a Personal approach and i very attentive, Keeps his commitments. Very driven with telling about animals and tracks. This is how he conveys the drive for the safari well

Had the pleasure of having Keegan as our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and so willing to answer any questions. He was accommodating and always trying to please his guests. I can highly recommend an outing with Keegan.

While staying in Houdspruit I went on safari with Keegan two times It was always a great pleasue and phantastic experience to be guided by him through the Pridelands Conservancy wilderness with its small and large treasures, be they plants or animals. Based on his profound knowledge and large experience he provided lots of information in a colloquial manner and also answers to sometimes pretty detailed questions. At the same time, Keegan has a subtle and profound sense of humor that makes it fun to listen to him. It never got boring and the time flew by. Having had that many unforgettable experiences and having learned so much on Keegan's safaris I am now curious for more. Thank you so much, Keegan.

Keegan is the best - a true expert who is professional, friendly, highly knowledgable and knows the bush inside out. Couldn't recommend highly enough - we had a fun, safe and exciting time on our game drives with him
