Thank you to the amazing team at My Africa. They helped me plan my engagement and made it so special. We started with a sunset Safari and got to see lions, zebra, a Zazu bird and elephants. The guide was the best and so knowledgeable. We then ended with a special romantic setup at a watering hole where I proposed to my now fiancé. All thanks to the amazing team at My Africa.

Wonderful experience! For my wife's birthday, I organised a family safari photoshoot in a private game reserve with My Africa. We choose Olifants reserve and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Joe (the safari guide) was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic and was very helpful in fulfilling the photographer's wishes and finding locations for us to take shots. Our game drive was stunning and we had a fantastic close encounter with a male lion as well as getting up close to a herd of elephants. Incredible memories that will last a lifetime!
Wonderful experience and company!

My Africa was an amazing company to book this tour with. Meg who was the “MyAfrica” consultant I dealt with was so nice to talk to and so efficient during the booking process via email and then while in Africa she was so easy to communicate with via WhatsApp for any last minute details I needed. She made sure everything was organized and taken care of. Our sunset Safari tour in a private game reserve was amazing…our driver John was a great driver and full of knowledge about the various animals we saw. We had a spotter on our truck too Donovan who was great at spotting the animals for us. They picked us up right at our hotel and were on time and everything went as scheduled. We then had the most amazing meal (I would say one of if not the best one of our trip) in the bush! You get a drink included as well and it’s all set up with lanterns and candles. It was the perfect ending to our Safari! I would highly recommend MyAfrica for any of their tours, they have tons of different options and great prices and they make everything so easy to arrange. We also did a Blyde River Canyon tour arranged by them which was also amazing!!! Highly recommend you will not be disappointed. If I am ever so lucky as to return to South Africa I will be using my Africa again.

We went on 4 game drives with My Africa during our time on Safari and I cannot recommend them enough. From the booking through to the drives themselves everything was seamless. We managed to see 4 out of the big 5, with only the leopards hiding from us, not for the want of trying and just means we will have to return. We did a full Kruger day tour, Evening Safari, Morning Safari and evening Safari including bush dinner, each time at a different game reserve.

We had an incredible private safari trip with Aaron, and it was absolutely amazing! His service was exceptional throughout the entire journey. Aaron was professional, friendly, and attentive, ensuring that we had a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Although we didn’t get to see the Big Five, we were fortunate enough to spot a few beautiful animals towards the end of the drive. There were rhinos, giraffes, duikers, zebras, impalas, and an honourable mention of the yellow-billed hornbill, “Zazu.” This added to the overall magic of the trip. Aaron’s knowledge of the area and wildlife was impressive. He took his time to share interesting facts and made sure we were comfortable throughout the drive. The vehicle was clean and well-maintained, and we always felt safe and well-looked after. The trip was peaceful and memorable, and Aaron’s warm and thoughtful approach truly made it stand out. We highly recommend Aaron’s services for a safari experience like no other!🦓🦏🐾🦒🐃🐾

We had the most amazing trip with My Africa Adventures. Siya (who we officially named Captain now) was phenomenal! He explained in detail when the kiddies had questions and made every effort to ensure we see as much as possible. We experienced unbelievable sightings and feel so blessed.
Wonderful and memorable experience with Aaron

We went on a game tour and were able to see elephants and other animals, it was magical! Aaron was our guide, and he was great, taught us a lot about the reserve and its animals. He shared his joy and passion, making our experience even richer. Thank you so much!

MyAfrica's very own, Never and Stephan/Stephen were our guides and I'd like to give Never a special mention. As Zimbabweans, we've had the honour of doing many Safaris over the years, but today was different. Never made it super personalised, going the extra mile to ensure we left having seen every animal on our lists. His in depth knowledge shone through and he was very passionate about his job. As my toddler put it, 'best day ever!,'
Wonderful experience
