Our half day tour with our guide Allan was truely amazing! Allan had great knowledge about the park and all the animals. He picked us up at our apartment at 08:20 am (really punctually) with his nice Safari vehicle. Already within the first half hour of our tour, we saw kudos, zebras, elefants and 4 lions. While the guides in the other cars did not spot the lions, Allan recognized them in the bush at first sight. During the entire tour, Allan provided us interesting information about the animals and knew the right spots to go to. When we told him the need to search for a restroom, he immediately brought us to the bathroom area within the park. At 11:30 we had a nice picnic with freshly baked bread in the picnic area. We spent some time at the water holes where elephants passed approx 50cm in front of our car and we took many nice pictures. We left the park at 13:15 and had a wonderful stay! Allan even organized with the park crew that we could reuse our ticket to re-enter the park with our own vehicle in the afternoon. We would definitely book this trip once again and highly recommend it! Greetings to Allan, thanks again for this nice experience!
It was amazing to see so many elephants congregated at the waterholes, as well as small groups travelling along the road/track. To experience an elephant gaze into your soul from only a metre away was unforgettable. So many other animal encounters on the day - monkeys, baboons, tortoises, wide array of antelope, zebras and bird life. Lots of Pumba the warthog! No lions today, but three additional lions were to be released the next day. An unforgettable day, I fully recommend this tour with a very informative tour guide.
The trip was amazing! Our tour guide Stephan was spectacular, had a wealth of knowledge and was very accommodating. We must have seen about 150 elephants or more! The picnic was fantastic thanks to Stephan. A very nice treat indeed. Finally I would recommend this trip to anyone who is looking for a 5 hour safari trip if you are in and around the Eastern Cape area.
We went on safari with our gide steven. He was the best guide we could have! he tell us a lot about the animals and the history of the park. The weather was not really good (it rains a lot this day), but we have seen elephants, zebra's, kudu's, österichs, monkey's, antelope and last but not least the Lion! steven, our guide, heart that some people have seen them that morning en leads us to this beatifull animals! we enjoyed our trip a lot and will defenitly recommend this trip to others.
Our Tour driver was perfect and friendly…We met people from UK it was nice, although we saw only 3 of the big 5 animals. Our Driver was trying his best to meet the objectives of the game reserve
