I have done other safaris in Kenya but the kruger park in South Africa is wonderful, abounds in wildlife and green flora. We spotted many animals including a pack of 14 lionesses hunting at dawn and then elephants, leopards impala, hippos, rhinos, etc. We stayed in Melalane near the entrance of the park and went on a day safari with a very good and nice guide I think it was called Sipho. In the morning we left at dawn at 5, it was late April and in the morning until the sun warmed it was 5cold so bring a jacket or down jacket. Experience fi a beautiful safari! Would stay there again and again! I think maybe two days on this side of the park is good.

What a great tour we had today. Picked up by Bernard and his brother Hennie in the 4x4 and with the cooperation of the weather (around 17 degrees and heavily cloudy) we got treat after treat: leopard (where he was also sitting yesterday Bernard told us), lions (clearly a couple in love saw Bernard immediately) that went to mate. Another leopard, more lions stalking buffalo, a leopard with a kill in the tree, elephants, zebras and goats, mega lots of facts about the animals in between (such as numbers in the park, habits and behaviors), Bernard knew so much! I can keep going on about the tour, it was great in one word. Knowledge and enthusiasm, photos we got after behind that Bernard himself shoots very professionally from the car, it was more than the expectation exceeded. And that while it was my 3rd time kruger.. a must for anyone considering this, go out with the brothers!

Adrian was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much with us. He knew where to go to see the animals we wanted to (even on a tough day after a rainstorm), and the stories he shared helped bring things to life even more. Highly recommend.

What an amazing experience. Our guide for the afternoon was Hennie who was informative , thoughtful and welcoming.The weather wasn’t in our favour but we were given raincoats and truly enjoyed the experience. Hennie gave us an amazing experience which we’ll cherish and will definitely recommend. He took amazing pictures in the bush for us too. We enjoyed the marvel of creation that day! On any given day, I will recommend PK Safaris without hesitation to friends and family! Keep up the great service Hennie and Bernard

The best tour we have EVER been on. Not only did we see the most amazing and unforgettable sightings, our guide ( Hennie ) gave us something we will cherish just as much ... knowledge. He was patient with us and answered every single question we had ( we ask a lot). He taught us so much about the park, the animals, the surrounding scenery and everything in between. His knowledge and passion made this experience everything it truly was- AMAZING. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who loves the park or even wants to experience it for the first time. This was by far the best day we have had inside the park.

We did a half-day p.m. tour and a half-day a.m. tour the next day. We had debated just touring the park ourselves (as others do), but glad we paid for the tour - in that the guides are constantly on the radio with one another reporting sightings that we would have surely missed on our own (such as where to find lions). The next day (after the two tours) we did spend a half day on our own as well, and saw some wildlife, but not as much as with the guides and their eagle eyes for spotting things we likely would have missed. We were able to see 4 of the big 5....and just missed a leopard by about 30 seconds...although our guide made a heroic effort to locate!

Great! A lot of knowledge of both the Kruger park and all animals. We didn't just see the Big Five, we even saw the Great Eight! Our guide (Hennie) was particularly knowledgeable and a quiet, pleasant guy to be out with. In addition, the contact prior to the trip was pleasant and agreements are kept. The 5 stars are therefore more than deserved. If you want a private tour I highly recommend PK Safaris!
