What a fantastic experience ! - We were hoping to have a good time at the Krugerpark but the 3 days were great! The "basic"campsite was a glamping site; good tents, comfortable beds nicely decorated with pillow, bedside table , throws and near the facilities. Muzi, our excellent host, prepared twice a tasteful dinner(and breakfast) with nice presentations and even wine! He also organised our timely transport to and fro the campsite and our meetings with the rangers/ guides who took us on tours. The full day panoramic tour by Fiso brought us to 5 spectacular viewing points along the Blyde River Canyon. The 8 hours safari tour by Sebenzile was fantastic! She went out of her way to choose a difficult track that would show us many animals. And she was right! We saw cheetahs and wild dogs; animals that aren't very common at Kruger compared with impalas and elephants. We could tick all the boxes of Big 5 and ugly 5 and many more thanks to Sebenzile's effort to find them for us . She was also very knowledgeable about the wildlife and fun to listen to. Many thanks to Muzi, Fiso, Citie and Sebezile for showing us the Krugerpark!

Wonderful company! - We had a wonderful experience with Mbombela! They helped us with the transfer from Maputo to Kruger, and did a great job in the park :) we saw the big 5 and many other beautiful animals and landscapes! Excellent guides, great meals. We were in 4 people and we stayed in 2 very comfortable tents!

Note 10! - Our experience with Mbombela was perfect! From the initial contact via email, hotel suggestion to stay before the start of the tour, the transfer to get to the campsite, the tents, the place of the cabins, cleaning , service, guides, food, tours, organization, sympathy! On the way back they also left us at the place where we were going to stay in Johannesburg. Special thanks to the wonderful staff that served us: Sibiya music, sympathy, perfect cook, very attentive and cheerful; Roy Nkuna, who made the transfer to the camp and then was our Guide to see the animals, giving explanations, respecting our rhythm, desires and curiosities and finally, Manzini , super attentive and with a lot of knowledge and availability on our wonderful panoramic tour. Super recommend!

Amazing Safari and panoramic tour - Thank you Mbombela Experiences for everything !!! The safari tour (we have seen lion, rhino, etc.. not leopard), the guide Mylord (very kind and passionated by his job), the camp was very beautiful and clean. The panoramic tour was beautiful. And more than everything, we went at Kruger with my wife for my birthday and Nieto, manager, invites us at the restaurant to celebrate my birthday, with a night offered in a very good hôtel in Mbombela. So I will recommend them 1000% for the tour who were perfect, because they are nice and passionated, and you have really human connections with them.

It couls have began better.... - The experience didn't begin well because i was hacked by a false Mbombela Tours on my email so i paid twice my tour. The 3 days in Kruger Park and the 4th day at the Blyde River Canyon were great and the staff very professionnal and nice. The dinner at the camp could be a little bit more varied.
