Absolutely amazing experience! The hosts and drivers were all so lovely and went above and beyond for us. We got to see all the big 5!

I booked my trip on balanta website and not via Trip Advisor. The communication could have been a lot better than what it was. I had no communication until I reached out a few days before my trip with questions on coordination. Per their website itinerary it states pickup from airport, hotel to the lodge. I was transported via private pick up to airport, then bus to Nelspruit and private pick up from Nelspruit to the lodge and same thing on the way back. This itinerary, and transfers were never communicated to me ahead of time. I was put on a public bus without advance notice and information on transfers. Getting to my lodge was a confusing journey. The fees not covered by the tours were not clearly stated: first it was additional fee for single supplement of the room as I was traveling solo, then it was another extra cost for pickup/drop off from hotel in Joburg, then there is a daily entrance fee into Kruger park that I had to cover which was included in cost of the tour. So this skews the total cost of the tour if you were trying to compare with other services as all the costs are not disclosed nor included. For someone that plans, organizes and compares and just for transparency purposes fees not covered should be disclosed upfront especially prior to purchase. Despite this I enjoyed the safari experience, Two days was enough time for me at the safari. Our tour guide Oberi made sure we saw a lot of the animals especially those we had on our lists as wanting to see. The lodge was beautiful, the food was good and staff was welcoming and provided great service. Do your research

Overall the safari experience was wonderful. The lodging and the guides were very accommodating and made sure we were well looked after. We saw all of the Big 5 thanks to our great guide. Thank you to the whole staff. The downside of the experience was the lack of communication with the tour organizer - we reached out multiple times before our trip for information and were only given details the day we flew to Africa. Also note that transport is NOT private and in a shared shuttle bus. This was a surprise to us, especially with the cost of the trip.

I expected slightly nicer lodgings especially for the price. Power went out after a storm so we had no power for most of our stay. The food was mediocre although the staff was super sweet. We had to be up in the wee hours for our trek, would have been nice to have some juice/coffee to start our day. Our safari was sun though and your guide was amazing. He navigated us through an intense and spontaneous hail storm. All in all was great but not sure I would recommend to friends

The entire trip was amazing. You practically couldn’t ask for better and the only animal in the Big Five that we didn’t see was leopards. Other than that, the lodging was great along with the meals that they provided. Special thanks to our safari guide Aubrey, chef Precious, and host Swazi who went above and beyond with their service and their knowledge of the park and animals.
