Our Safari Tour Experience – 47 Happy Travelers! - I organized a group of 47 of us for a safari tour in May 2025 while we were on an NCL cruise, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the experience provided by Heritage Tours. Nele has been an incredible help in setting up everything for our group—her professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to excellent service really stood out. She’s been patient, thorough, and even kindly offered me her own jacket when the weather turned cold and windy—above and beyond! Our guide, Lindo, was fantastic as well. He made sure we had a great time and went out of his way to help us spot as many animals as possible in the park. His enthusiasm and knowledge added so much to the experience. If you're looking for a truly memorable safari with outstanding service, I highly recommend Heritage Tours. They made everything smooth, enjoyable, and unforgettable for our entire group.

Best Full day Safari - We booked the full day Safari tour with 12 of our friends from Germany! Nele contacted us within hours of booking through WhatsApp and asked us if we had any dietary requirements or if it was a special occassion! Our 2 guides, Fred and Sifiso put in so much effort to try ensure we saw as many animals as possible and even surprised us with a cake and champagne at the end of the day in celebration of us getting married 3 days before. Thank you so much to all of you involved !

family day safari - Beautiful day! Thanks to our guide Yam we were able to see many animals (rhino, antelope, elephant, giraffes, Lycaon, cheetah etc). Yam explained to us their different behaviors and lifestyles as well as their interactions between species. We were treated to a good breakfast and lunch, amidst antelope and warthog. We are delighted with this day. It was superb. Thanks again!

Lovely day - Under the knowledgeable and pleasant guidance of Sifiso Nzuza we had a great day. It was early away from our cottage and 70 min drive to the gate, but the included blankets were fine and the cold was not too bad. Many seen: wild dogs, warthogs, elephants, buffalo, Nyalas, baboons. Unfortunately, no big cats. Fresh thorns v cheetah and lion. Delicious fresh breakfast and well-kept braai. Thank you sifiso, for everything you know and loved to share

A great day spent! - What an amazing day! Our guide Sifiso was brilliant and had a lot of knowledge about the animals and the history of the reserve, he was also extremely friendly and made our trip so fun. The reserve itself was awesome and we had the luck of seeing a pack of wild dogs which was the highlight of the day. It felt as if one day was not enough to see it all, would definitely return for another visit.
