One of my best tours ever! - What a professional, yet friendly tour! 1-Our guide; Sifiso: Arrived a few minutes early (always a plus at 0500). He was experienced, personable, and remembered all our names. Had our breakfast and hot lunch ready as per schedule, knew the park, extremely animal and bird friendly. 5-stars! 2-Our drive: Elephants! Giraffes! Cape Buffalo! Warthogs! Kudu - Impala - Duiker - Meerkats! Baboons! And not from a distance, we had elephants, Impala, Kudo almost face-to-face with us! 3- The 6 x 6 tour is worth the extra money. Seating is easy; taking photos is easy, and frankly a small group quickly gets friendly; I was a solo traveler, the other 5 were a French family with friends from Reunion Island; 5 minutes in we were all chatting, and by the end we were all friends exchanging our What'sApp #. How nice was that! 4- The Net-Net: Use Heritage, and be sure to request Sifiso as your guide; lots of groups talk a great game; Heritage and Sifiso deliver!

Fantastic experience - Had an absolutely amazing game drive with Fred. Saw plenty of wildlife including 4 out of the big 5. Fred was knowledgeable and made sure to act fast on every sighting notification he received. Breakfast and lunch were great. Thank you to Nele also for all the help with facilitating such a well planned and exciting day.

Amazing animal experience - Amazing personalised trip led by a great guide, Zama. Loved the blankets and use of quality binoculars to see the animals. We saw a huge range of animals, especially loved the cheetah, and had plenty of time to watch them and take photos. Zama served us a delicious breakfast and lunch and went out of his way to ensure we enjoyed our day. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Highly recommended safari - We had a super fun day with Fred. A good breakfast, yogurt with granola and fruit, biscuit and coffee or tea. Fred explains a lot about the animals and plants. It was a bit cold that day with unfortunately rain but there are warm blankets, ponchos and not to mention binoculars. The braai was delicious, a big steak and a piece of sausage and bowls with salad. For us a very successful day Because we had reserved se safari for six, lots of space and each a place on the outside.

Unforgettable safari experience with a great guide! - We (family with 3 kids, 19, 17 and 12 years) participated in the Six On Safari to the Hluhluwe–Imfolozi Game Reserve and were absolutely thrilled! Our guide was incredibly competent, friendly and humorous – he knew every animal and knew how to tell exciting stories about the wildlife’s behaviour and lifestyle. Shortly after take-off, we were able to observe elephants, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and many antelopes – sometimes at impressive close range. We especially loved the fact that our guide always knew exactly where to stop to take the best photos, while at the same time paying attention to the safety and tranquility of the animals. At the end of the safari we were rewarded with an entire elephant family! Breakfast and lunch were very delicious, everything was perfectly organized. Overall, it was an unforgettable day that we can recommend to anyone. We would do the tour again immediately!

Great experience! I recommend it highly! - We had a great day, saw lots of magnificent animals! It was our first safari and found it amazing! The open jeep was safe and really brilliant. During the booking process Nele Jiyane was always very helpful and acommodated our needs. During the tour, our guide Siyabonga was friendly and very knowledgebable, and made a great effort chasing sightings. Thank you both! One thing that could be improved is the Centennary Craft Shop: it's beautiful, but unfortunately, it's located inside the park and we wanted to use precious morning time seeing animals. If it had been at the exit, we would have bought multiple things to take back.
