      One never know which animal you will encounter around the next corner when driving through the Kruger National Park. Finding the Big 5 is our guides' goal, and they know just where to look! This Private Kruger Safari is ideal for Family Groups which include children younger than 8 years of age, groups of keen Photographers or special interest groups, such as Bird Watchers. NB: Please collect breakfast packs from the lodge. Our office will confirm a pick-up time the day before with your lodge reception. The guide will stop at a rest camp for breakfast and at a different rest camp for clients to enjoy lunch at their restaurant (which is for clients' own account).

      Ask for Nhlamulo as your safari guide
      We did the sunrise visit in mid-January. The service was on time and provided a delightful day. Our day’s guide was Nhlamulo. We felt perfectly safe the entire time and he maneuvered our vehicle to provide everyone a view of the animals. Nhlamulo shared that he studied two years to become a guide and it showed. His passion was the birds but he was able to share his knowledge of the animals, some animal physiology (do you know which animals have one vs multiple stomachs?), animal behavior, geology and local knowledge of where the animals were. We saw 4 of the big 5, only missing rhinos. Crowds were not a problem. Fun times!

      Highly recommended for nature enthusiasts and adventurers alike!
      Incredible and unforgettable experience with the best driver, Enock! He was very good in spotting even the smallest animals and very knowledgeable about the Krüger National Park and its animals. We learned a lot during the tour and really enjoyed it.

      The experience was extraordinary. Happy was our Guide and he was exceptionally knowledgeable about the park and the animals. I learned so much and will request him when we travel again to Kruger National. Definitely one for the Play List.

      A good experience with Kurt Safari
      We spent 4 days in an eco lodge just outside Hazyview. Each day we were picked up by Kurt Safari by our guide Gareth. He was friendly, polite and extremely knowledgeable. He went to great lengths to ensure we saw a large selection of the wild life, and could answer any question our small group asked. He also took us up to God’s Window, and Blyde River areas. A wonderful day out which he enhanced by his care and charm. My only negative comment was that on the first day Kurt travel subcontracted the tour to a different company. Their vehicle had disfunctional seat belts. At one point four of us were trapped in our seats! We eventually were released and did not use them again, despite a notice telling us to wear them! I would recommend Kurt Travel and Gareth.

      Amazing Guide on Morning Safari
      We visited the park on the 3rd of January 2025 and what an amazing trip it was! We had an incredible experience with Kurt Safari’s! As we were waiting for our pickup from Umbhaba Lodge, it was pouring with rain. Upon his arrival, our guide, Dixson, immediately offered rain ponchos and rolled down the side flaps to ensure that we did not get drenched in the rain. Entering the park was smooth sailing as Dixson handled all the registrations seamlessly. He took his time explaining all the animals we saw and took us on all the side roads to ensure we saw predators up close. During one encounter, an elephant came right up to the game viewer, which was absolutely amazing. Dixson has so much knowledge and explained the behavior of the animals and what we need to look for if we choose to drive ourselves one day. We stopped for a restroom break and coffee at the picnic spot, which was a treat! The Phabeni gate flooded just after we entered, resulting in us needing to exit from the Numbi gate as we needed to get back to Hazyview. We were really scared as the Numbi area is not that great, but Dixson assured us that he had taken all precautionary measures to ensure our safety and dropped us off at the lodge with no issues. I will definitely recommend Kurt Safari’s to anyone who wants to visit the park and not drive themselves.

      Breathtaking
      We took a private sunrise Safari with our family of 4 ( 2 adults, 6 year old and 4 year old) led by “famous Amos”. I can’t say enough good things about the experience. Amos provided a lot of information about the animals and was very engaged with our family. We saw all of the big 5 and lots of other animals. Highly recommend for your trip to Kruger NP.

      Amazing safaris with Kurt Safari
      We were staying at the Kruger Gate Hotel and booked the safaris from Kurt Safari via our hotel. We had a afternoon safari with Senzo, a full day safari with Fortune and and a morning safari with Enock. All our guides were amazing and we enjoyed the safaris very much. Our last safari was with Enock who was a very kind and knowledgeable guide and he knew exactly how to get the best out of every situation. He also gave his very best so that we could see what we wanted and he did his job perfectly! We saw all Big 5 in one session and the absolute highlight was seeing 5 lions with 4 cubs at the end and we were always in perfect position to see them and take pictures of them. We couldn‘t have ended our safari better! Our first safari was the afternoon safari with Senzo. He was extremely funny and charming and joked a lot. We were very lucky with him as well and saw a lot of rare animals, such as wild dogs or the honey badger. We even saw a leopard at the very beginning (unfortunately it was hidden well under the trees and bushes). It was a great start for our safaris. With fortune we had a lot of luck as well on our full day safari and he knew a lot and told us so many interesting things. We saw wild dogs and a male and female lion amongst other things and we appreciated learning a lot about them throughout the day. Fortune also brought us to a great lunch spot and we were very happy!

      Great safari & panorama tour
      We did the 4 day package Kruger safari & panorama tour. The beginning of our journey through South Africa couldn‘t be better. Had amazing days in Kruger park and we‘ve seen all of the BiG 5. Our guide Nhlamulo did a really great job, thank you so much for this experience. Also the panorama route offered amazing views. The organisation at all was excellent, we didn’t have to worry about anything. Highly recommend it!

      The BEST driver - 12/10 experience
      Amos Tibne was the BEST driver and tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable on the park, the animals within and where they may potentially be. He was extremely flexible and let us stop as many times as we wanted. Could not recommend Amos more!

      The Best in Kruger
      We (family of 4, 2A/2C 15 & 12) have just finished the 3-day “Best of Kruger” safari with Kurt safari and our guide Didi. Fantastic 3 days and delivered as the packet stated… it certainly was the Best of Kruger! Didi was an awesome guide and made sure we covered the park including seeing the top 5, the ugly 5 as well as everything in between!! Thanks so much to Didi. Huge thanks also to Christa who organised everything, the communication and attention to detail was first class from first contact. Thoroughly recommend Kurt Safari.

    We did a full day private safari for 3x people and we can only recommend Kurt Safari.
    It was very easy to book it in advance and the team was always friendly and helpful, answering all the questions we had in advance.
    On the day of the safari, our guide Happy Nkuna made this experience an unforgettable one. We saw 3/5 within the 1st hour and more than 20 animals. Happy was extremely nice, knowledgeable, friendly, funny and patient :) He made this day one we will never forget! We did not see any leopards or rhinos but Happy tried his best :) Thank you once again for these lovely memories.

    We highly recommend Kurt Safari!!!

    Good luck with the big 5 and enjoy Kruger Park :)

    After contacting many safari companies, I finally decided on Kurt Safari, as their package seemed reasonably priced, but also included 3 safari drives:

    [2 night stay stay, with 1 evening safari, 1 full day safari and 1 morning safari]

    I was probably not easy to deal with, and had many questions, but they always answered any questions I had promptly.

    Due to Coronavirus, my trip to South Africa had to be suddenly brought forward by 3 weeks to new dates. I had already paid for the safari. However, Christa said not to worry, they will change our dates or provide a full refund!

    The company used Ashton Travel to transport us from OR Tambo, Johannesburg Airport to our hotel in Hazyview. (Ashton use small, but comfortable mini busses). Kurt Safari booked us in at Sanbonani Hotel. We were given a room inside the hotel, which was lovely and included breakfast and dinner.

    When we arrived, we went with driver Muzi on an evening safari and had a close encounter with a male lion! Fantastic start.

    The following morning, Muzi was our driver again. I couldn’t believe how fantastic he was at spotting the animals, especially while driving! He could spot animals many times while driving that would still take us 1 minute to find! He was well-informed about Kruger and all the animals, he was a safe driver, but most importantly, he was fun, friendly and had a fantastic sense of humour!

    On our second day (full day safari) we saw the ‘big 5’ all up close! Brilliant day out.

    Unfortunately, we had to suddenly skip out morning safari on the 3rd day as we had to catch a flight home quickly (again, due to coronavirus.) Christa continued to text to make sure we were safe and thanked us for coming.

    Huge thumbs up to Kurt!

    My family and I booked the 4-day safari which included a Panorama tour, 2 full day safaris, and a sunset/night safari. Our expert guide was DiDi, who gave us an unforgettable, perfect experience. We saw gorgeous vistas, waterfalls, and scenery that were some of the most beautiful in all of South Africa. During our safari days, we saw not only all Big 5, but a total of 40 various animals, plants, and birds. Our guide DiDi was knowledgeable about it all, and made a point to keep things interesting throughout our time together. I had my camera with me, ready for pictures, and DiDi helped us capture excellent photos by stopping as often as we asked, and even moving the vehicle to certain angles to get the best shots.

    Our family included 2 young girls, one of whom celebrated her 9th birthday while on the trip. DiDi and his team arranged for balloons and even a vegan cake to be sent to our table at Umbhaba Eco Lodge (how awesome is that??!!). We also brought along my 75 year old mother, who had a bit of trouble getting in and out of the vehicles. He brought along an extra step just for her to make things easier.

    Needless to say, by the time we left our trip the entire family already missed DiDi and the team as much as we missed beautiful South Africa! I can't recommend this company more. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Had a great time, Patrick, our guide and driver did a tremendous job finding dozens of animals and birds including positioning us alongside a pride of 5 Lions wandering along the road. We saw 4 of the big 5, missed the Leopard but it was raining most of the day.
    The knowledge and information Patrick shared with us added great value for us

    We did a 3-day trip from Johannesburg to Kruger Park through the scenic road and Blyde River canyon with Kurt Safari.
    I guess many other companies would offer you the same trip and itinerary so it does not make it easy to choose one specifically, and at the end of the day what will matter the most if the guide you’ll have. Great guide = great experience. We have been so lucky to be with Elvis - he has been the kindest, interesting, passionate, easy-going, ponctual, always smiling and doing his very best to make this experience the best for us. He knows all about the animals and their life and has explained us so much about it. We spotted the Big Five in only 1 day and a half and this was only thanks to his perfect knowledge of the park, his perseverance and his sharp eyes! We felt very privileged and secure with Elvis, who is not only one of the best rangers but also the safest driver and a lovely human being!

    Liesl was a fantastic guide on our safari. She not only responded to participants questions and sightings but she added so much more- knowledge of the botany of the region, insight about our many bird sightings, and just such pleasure to show us the world she loves. We saw many animals despite it being a rainy day.

    We went on the '3 Day: Best of Kruger' safari. We had high expectations but Kurt Safari exceeded them!

    Before we left for the trip, Christa was amazing at organising the safari for us and keeping us updated. She provided fast responses to all of our questions and everything was clear.

    We were picked up exactly on time in Johannesburg. The accommodation chosen by Kurt Safaris was amazing - it felt like luxury, but at a non-luxury price.

    Didi was our guide and was sensational. He had so much knowledge on everything and had a great eye for spotting the wildlife. He went out of his way to find us animals based on what other guides had seen on the day and we managed to spot the big 5!

    The whole experience was amazing. This is a great package if you're looking to pack a lot of safari time into a short number of days, as other companies give you so much less for so much more money,

    We are so happy that we chose Kurt safari and it is a pleasure to recommend them!

    For us this was to be a once in a lifetime experience that we had saved up for, and we excitedly booked a full day safari due to Kurt Safari’s high ratings. Unfortunately we were really disappointed by the outcome.

    Our guide barely spoken to us for the entire trip. We expected to be guided through the park and given plenty of information about the surroundings and the animals. In reality our guide only gave us the life span and gestation period of each animal we saw, and hardly stopped to see them, even when we came across lions we moved on quickly rather than tracking them and watching their movements. We did try to ask questions and press for some conversation but our guide seemed totally uninterested. Not only by us, but by the animals and the park too which was really surprising. We are understanding, and every person has good and bad days, the guides are only human, and we don’t need them to be interested in us! However if you pay hundreds of pounds for a service that a business offers, you expect a certain level of guidance and at the very least an interest in this incredible park of animals, and that was simply not there. We passed so many fascinating birds, trees and of course large animals of which we were told nothing.

    We were the first to arrive and rest stops and the last to leave, which felt like a waste of time. Also you should remember that this tour offers no snacks, refreshments or meals. In fact they only gave us blankets when we asked for them and (as the guides well know) it was absolutely freezing at 5am in a moving vehicle.

    The beauty of Kruger and the magnificence of the animals was the saving grace of the day.

    We did inform Kurt safari of this afterwards and we received only an apology and an assurance that they would follow this up with the guide. There was no effort made to remedy the situation with us, no offer of a refund or of another tour.

    We would really not advise booking with Kurt Safari, but rather calling the park gate that you are closest to and booking directly with them. You unnecessarily pay a huge amount of money for this tour with Kurt Safari and it was not worth it at all, you can get a guided tour directly from the gate which is likely to be much better and more reasonable in price.

    After decades of dreaming and years of planning, I finally ticked the most awaited experience off my bucket list – a private safari in the majestic Kruger National Park, and all I can say is, it surpassed every single expectation, thanks to Kurt Safari and, more specifically, our phenomenal guide, Pleasure.

    From the moment we embarked on our adventure, it was clear that this wasn't going to be just any safari; it was a journey meticulously crafted to awe and inspire. Pleasure, our guide, was not just a name but the very essence of our experience. His knowledge of the park, its history, and its inhabitants was unparalleled. But what truly set him apart was his infectious enthusiasm and genuine dedication to ensuring we had the time of our lives.

    Seeing The Big 5 was the pinnacle of the safari, an experience many long for but few achieve, especially in such a spectacular fashion. Pleasure seemed to have an almost magical ability to be in the right place at the right time, allowing us to witness these magnificent animals in their natural habitat, behaving as if we were not there. His respect for wildlife and the park's rules was evident in every decision he made, ensuring that our encounters were ethical and sustainable.

    But it wasn't just the sightings that made this safari unforgettable. Pleasure went out of his way to enrich our understanding of each creature, sharing stories and facts that brought each animal to life in our imaginations long after they had disappeared into the bush. His patience and eagerness to answer our endless questions made us feel like we were not just tourists, but explorers in our own right.

    The private safaris were thoughtfully planned, from the routes taken to the timing, ensuring we experienced the vast landscapes and diverse ecosystems of Kruger in all their glory. The sunrises we witnessed from vantage points only someone with Pleasure’s expertise could know left us breathless, embedding memories in our hearts that will last a lifetime.

    This safari was not just a trip; it was the adventure of a lifetime, masterfully orchestrated by Kurt Safari and brought to life by our guide, Pleasure. If you're considering a safari, do yourself a favor and book with Kurt Safari. And if you can, request Pleasure as your guide. It’s not just a journey through the bush; it’s a voyage into the heart of nature itself, guided by someone who embodies the spirit of the wild and the warmth of true hospitality.

    We had the best time with our guide Pleasure. It is so worth it to do the full day and sunrise start as we saw a male lion just past sunrise! The guides all radio each other to help one another out when they spot something which was key. We were within feet of giant elephants and giraffes and zebras. We saw a lion and leopard in the distance as well as rhinos. Brining binoculars and a quality camera with a good zoom feature is helpful. Also if going in the colder months dress warm for the morning party as they drive pretty fast and there is quite a wind chill in your face with the open vehicles concept.
