We had booked a safari with Frank and had to unfortunately cancel the trip because of my father's ill health. And through this all Frank has been so kind and helpful and cooperative with all of our ever-changing plans. So although I won't make it to Kruger this year, whenever I go next, I will be sure to book with... More

Frank Watts was a wonderful Bush guide. His many years of experience in Kruger National Park gives him a wealth of knowledge of the place and its animals. He has a convivial and out-going personality that makes you feel like you've been friends forever after just an hour or two. We saw something like 15 mammal species in our first... More

My wife and I were Frank's only customers for the maiden safari in his new vehicle on 5th April 2013 The day was very special and one we will treasure. I won't list all the animals and other things we saw as they were too numerous and continued throughout the day. Needless to say this far exceeded our expectations. Frank... More

We contacted Frank of The Other Animals Safaris after seeing reviews on Tripadvisor and he didn't disappoint. Frank helped to arrange our accommodation at Dreamfields, which was excellent, and though he couldn't do our safari himself arranged for Josh Beaton to take us. Thanks to Josh our journeys around Kruger were excellent. His knowledge was both personal and encyclopaedic, he... More

My boyfriend and I had a full private day with Frank and it was a great experience. he was incredibly knowledgeable and full of... More

Absolute delight to have Frank as guide. He is funny, knowledgable, informative and loves animals. He knows where to find the animals. We loved our Safari and will go back soon!

My boyfriend and I were lucky enough to get Frank all to ourselves for a full day safari and we couldn't have been happier with the outcome. We saw a ton of animals and Frank was able to answer all of our questions. His knowledge of the region is extensive and his instincts regarding animal behaviour were always accurate. He... More

Frank made our trip to Kruger very special. His enthusiasm is contagious and you could listen to his stories for days. Even if you saw nothing it would still be worthwhile having Frank as your guide. But with his knowledge combined with the other guides always in contact by radio, I reckon it's very unlikely you will be disappointed. We... More
