Fantastic experience

Had an absolutely amazing game drive with Fred. Saw plenty of wildlife including 4 out of the big 5. Fred was knowledgeable and made sure to act fast on every sighting notification he received. Breakfast and lunch were great. Thank you to Nele also for all the help with facilitating such a well planned and exciting day.

What an amazing day!!

A fabulous day had by all of us, made even more special by our amazing driver and guide Fred, who was also a brilliant bbq chef. Fred went over and above to try and find a lion for our daughter to see. Definitely recommend this tour for everyone.

Operator response

Amazing animal experience

Amazing personalised trip led by a great guide, Zama. Loved the blankets and use of quality binoculars to see the animals. We saw a huge range of animals, especially loved the cheetah, and had plenty of time to watch them and take photos. Zama served us a delicious breakfast and lunch and went out of his way to ensure we enjoyed our day. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Operator response

😊 Thank you for sharing your incredible experience with us! We're thrilled Zama made your trip so special - he's one of our top guides, and delighted he went the extra mile for you. The cheetah sighting sounds awesome, and glad you had plenty of time to soak it in. Thanks for choosing Heritage Tours, and we'll look forward to welcoming you back!

Great experience! I recommend it highly!

We had a great day, saw lots of magnificent animals! It was our first safari and found it amazing! The open jeep was safe and really brilliant. During the booking process Nele Jiyane was always very helpful and acommodated our needs. During the tour, our guide Siyabonga was friendly and very knowledgebable, and made a great effort chasing sightings. Thank you both! One thing that could be improved is the Centennary Craft Shop: it's beautiful, but unfortunately, it's located inside the park and we wanted to use precious morning time seeing animals. If it had been at the exit, we would have bought multiple things to take back.

Operator response

Thanks so much for the fantastic feedback! 😊 We're thrilled you had an amazing first safari experience with us. Siyabonga's a star, and Nele's admin skills are top-notch! Thank you again for choosing Heritage Tours - we look forward to welcoming you back!

Highly recommended safari

We had a super fun day with Fred. A good breakfast, yogurt with granola and fruit, biscuit and coffee or tea. Fred explains a lot about the animals and plants. It was a bit cold that day with unfortunately rain but there are warm blankets, ponchos and not to mention binoculars. The braai was delicious, a big steak and a piece of sausage and bowls with salad. For us a very successful day Because we had reserved se safari for six, lots of space and each a place on the outside.

Unforgettable safari experience with a great guide!

We (family with 3 kids, 19, 17 and 12 years) participated in the Six On Safari to the Hluhluwe–Imfolozi Game Reserve and were absolutely thrilled! Our guide was incredibly competent, friendly and humorous – he knew every animal and knew how to tell exciting stories about the wildlife’s behaviour and lifestyle. Shortly after take-off, we were able to observe elephants, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and many antelopes – sometimes at impressive close range. We especially loved the fact that our guide always knew exactly where to stop to take the best photos, while at the same time paying attention to the safety and tranquility of the animals. At the end of the safari we were rewarded with an entire elephant family! Breakfast and lunch were very delicious, everything was perfectly organized. Overall, it was an unforgettable day that we can recommend to anyone. We would do the tour again immediately!

Operator response

Wauw, wat een ongelooflijke beoordeling! Heel erg bedankt dat je je onvergetelijke safari-ervaring met ons hebt gedeeld! We zijn verheugd om te horen dat je gids deskundig, vriendelijk en humoristisch was, en dat je zoveel geweldige dieren van dichtbij hebt kunnen zien. Het zien van de olifantenfamilie klinkt als een perfecte afsluiting van een geweldige dag! We zijn blij dat je van het eten en de organisatie hebt genoten en waarderen je aanbeveling. We kunnen niet wachten om je weer te verwelkomen bij een nieuw avontuur!
