Excellent tour and...

Dorinda_W, May 2025

Excellent tour and guide/tracker. Ashley was very good at seeing animals in the distance. It was also a great learning experience. He quizzed us on what we were seeing and then provided the facts. It was an interesting approach. He is extremely knowledgeable about all the animals and imparted this knowledge in an entertaining manner.

Excellent guide!

We were picked up at the cruise port by Ashley. It was about 1 1/2 hour drive to the Hluhluwe–Imfolozi Park. Ashley was so knowledgeable about all of the plants, animals and the land that we saw. He went out of his way to make the best possible experience for us. When he located an animal, he stopped for us to take photos and even took some of the pictures for us. Our picnic lunch was prepared by Ashley's wife. It was yummy, complete with wine. We enjoyed the monkeys and antelope grazing nearby as we ate. We returned to the cruise port after dark with great photos and wonderful memories. What a perfect day!

A great day .

We had a fantastic day ! Ashley collected us from the ship and we enjoyed the drive to the park during which we chatted about South Africa and life there today . Once in the park we saw many animals and we could not have asked for a better guide . Ashley worked really hard to ensure we had a great day and we did ! Just book the tour !

We had an amazing day and saw some amazing wildlife Our guide made this all possible my Zulu friend was absolutely amazing he gave us information on Zulu culture and his sharp eyes found us some amazing wildlife He is an absolute credit to this company Would recommend him and this company to all

A day to remember!

December 11, 2024 was a day to remember! Our guide, Bonginkosi, was wonderful because he was so adept in finding many of the animals we would never have seen. Imagine seeing a group of resting Cheetahs. They blended in with the grass, but our guide saw them! Eagle eyes! Very informative, saw many wonderful animals. Our guide was patient and determined to make our day one to remember! Before our safari, the owners of the company answered our every question in a timely manner. They were wonderful. If you are thinking of booking this safari, Do it!

The best tour & guide

raymond_s, Mar 2024

This was a great tour with the most amazing guide, I cannot say enough praise for this tour & the people that run it ( a husband & wife). The day was not very nice with rain but somehow the guide managed to get us to see almost every animal that there was, I don't think that without his knowledge we would have seen any. We booked this tour while on a cruise & All the other tours were cancelled because of the rain but our guide (Ashley) made it happen. The lunch was very good but changed to a cold lunch from a BBQ because of the rain. I give this tour & guide 5 stars. Do yourself a favor, book this tour & no other.

Awesome guide.

Debra_V, Mar 2024

Our day was very rainy. So limited in animal sitings. But we did manage to see quite a few. Ashley was a great tour guide.

A memorable experience...

Clive_P, Mar 2024

A memorable experience which was really enhanced by our knowledgeable guide Ashley, who ensured that we all shared his love for the large number of animals that we sighted on the day. So many highlights and a lovely picnic lunch which was just right for us. An ideal trip for day visitors to Richards Bay.

Perfect day in Richard’s Bay

Angela_H, Jan 2024

Totally unbelievable experience with Ashley who provided such an excellent drive, educational experience, and navigating into the park. He knew the park inside and out, the animal habitat, tracks, markings, and history of the area. We could not have asked for a better day!
