8 nights in Kruger
5/5

This company was recommended to us by people who had been on over a dozen safaris. They said this was the best they had been on, so our expectations were high. Our expectations were in fact exceeded! Ryan and Thale are wonderful hosts, guides and now friends. It is an overused expression, but I can honestly say this was a holiday of a lifetime. Recommended.

An overwhelming Christmas- adventure
5/5

We had the best time of our life with Wild Planet Safari christmas 2014
We went on a 11 days tour from J.burg-Hazywiew- Merloth-Swaziland-St. Lucia- Durban- J.burg. And would do it all again tomorrow without any hesitation.
The knowlegde of both Ryan and Thale made our trip complete, and with the patience for our four children (5,8,9,10) it was absolutely phenomenal.
Travelling with Wild Planet Safari is highly recomendable, and you will get the best service, food and experiences of 'em all!:)

The trip was amazing and really great.
5/5

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.

5/5

My family and I have been on our most exciting tour with Ryan and Thale. We have been well received. We saw the big five, and have seen loads of other exciting animals. I am impressed by the knowledge of everything from trees, grass, rocks, animals and history. We had 13 days of good food and good stories and many great experiences. This can be highly recommended. Thanks Thale and Ryan that you made ​​this an experience of a lifetime.

Three weeks we never will forget
5/5

Thank you so much for the three greatest adventures weeks we have had. We traveled through South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana.

We saw every animal we could ever dream of. Beautiful sceneries, places and fantastic national pearls.

The guides from Wild Planet Safari, Thale and Ryan, made the trip unforgetable. The knowlage about every animal, flora, fauna and places were explizit. Ryan could spot a animal from a great distance and Thale would make up the best dishes. Since the trip was a personal trip with the only two of us, we were able to take full advantage of our guides and were able to stop when we wanted, get the game drives we wanted and last but not least get the photos we wanted.

The food was delicious, variated and tasty. We still talk about all the different delicious sausages we had every day in addition to dinner. We had all the great camping sites with comforting tents. We espesially remembering the campsite at Mapungubwe where the bushbuck walk next to us whilst we had breakfast, and the monkeyes with some cheeky monkey business.

If you want a tailor made and personal trip, with guides that have the knowlage we would love to recommend Wild Planet Safari with Thale and Ryan!!

Thank you so much for the tour.

Wonderful days in South Africa!
5/5

It's a week now since I came back from South Africa, but most of the day I still think about the wonderful time there. 17 days of adventure, from we arrived in Johannesburg and were met by our guides Thale and Ryan and taken to our B & B to rest some hours before starting the tour through this beautiful country. 3 days in Kruger with exciting game-drives. Then we went on to Hluhluwe National Park(so beautiful! My favorite!) Next stop was Uhmlanga outside Durban. I still hear the roaring waves, sitting in a restaurant near the beach in the dark evening. We went on to Addo Elephant Park. Majestic male lions is a marvellous memory from there. Then Tsitsikamma - even the name sounds like an adventure. Suspension Bridge over roaring waves. An exciting place to stay. Knysna is a very beautiful town at the coast. We stayed there for 2 unforgettable days.On our way to Cape Town we also passed the most southern point of the African continent - Cape Agulhas. And then Cape Town - the last stop before going home. We stayed there for 2 days, using one of them to visit Robben Island to see "the home" for 18 years of their great leader Mandela. And we will never forget Table Mountain and the view around from the top. But nothing lasts for ever - we had to go home. I left Africa with my heart and head filled with love and respect for this country's fantastic animals and nature. During the whole stay I felt so safe in every way and everywhere, due to the long experience of our guides. I am so grateful for all the good service given by Wild Planet Safari. Thank you Thale and Ryan for showing me South Africa, with all that love and knowledge I can feel that you have for your country. I will be back to see more of it. With Wild Planet Safari.

Great times with Wild planet safari
5/5

It was very good!! The guys who had the safari really cared about what we wanted to do and listened to us.
They showed us a lot of cool stuff and we saw a lot of animals! they also knew very much about the animals and also
a lot of the trees and other stuff in the nature. Loved the food we had every night and had some cool nights beside the bonfire.
Really recommend this company!!!

Lekker
5/5

This was a great adventure in the wild... We saw everything you could ask for, all from birds, hippos, lions, leopards and wild dogs and of course amazing scenery!!
Next time I am going back to Southern Africa for safari i will definitely go with Wild Planet Safaris again. The staff has very good knowledge about every animal and the surroundings where we were and was very friendly and helpfull. You feel that these people live to be in the wild.
The food everynight was always very good and tasty.. We had elephant sausage and other good tasting steaks from animals we could see in the parks..
