Great tour with Sammy-M - We enjoyed 2 day tours in the park. Our driver Sammy-M was great. There could be no better one for guiding. On both days we saw all big fice + many more animals. It was worth every cent we spent.

Safari Kruger NP 5 days - We spent 5 nights at the Umbhaba Eco Lodge in Hazyview. The grounds and the room were very nice, clean and well maintained. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The 4 game drives by Kurt Safari were very well organized. The vehicles were in top condition. We saw lots of animals and were impressed. Many thanks to our friendly and very competent driver/guide Abraham Mat. We can highly recommend him. The price/performance ratio of the trip was very good. We would be happy to go with Kurt Safari again.

Amazing 2 full day safari with Kurt safari! - We went with an organised tour on a 2 full day safari with Kurt safari. Our guide was 'Happy' and he was a very nice joyful ranger who knew everything about all the animals and vegetation. Of course the passengers should be on the lookout for animals as well, but Happy mostly always spotted them crazy fast en took us there. Thanks to him we even got to see 2 leopards (1 each day, you have to be lucky but we wouldn't have seen them outselves). Highly recommend!

Very memorable safari tour with Fortune and Kurt safari - We had an excellent 2 nights 3 days safari tours with Kurt Safari. The initial preparation with Crista through whatsapp was very smooth and informative. We were very fortunate to have Fortune as our safari guide. He was very knowledgeable and attentive. Within 2 days, we have seen all the big 5 and on the 3rd day, even managed to see a pair of cheetah by the roadside . He gave us ample time to observe and take pictures of the animals . The Eco-resort was clean and comfortable . The nightly buffet was delicious too . I would likely recommend this safari tour company and excellent guide Fortune. I will definitely choose them again if I decide to return to Kruger park safari.

great time in Kruger - Thanks to our excellent guide N. Nhlamulo we had 2 wonderful days in Kruger Park. He never gave up finding the animals we most wanted to watch and that`s why we really made the Big Five and many more fascinating animals. We could even watch a lion couple just in front of us on the road in their most private action. Mr. Nhlamulo is a very competent guide / driver who knows a lot about wild animals and nature and who is always kind and helpful to his guests. Thanks for a great time :-) :-) :-)

Amazing and Unforgettable Experience - Big thanks to our guide, Chris Silbuy, who was always on time, and his expertise helped us to witness the big 7 and more. The whole tour was beyond our expectations. The coordination between Kurt safari staff was impeccable. They have checked upon us and guided us to reach Umbhabha Eco Lodge. We are beyond thrilled and happy with the whole package that we would recommend it to people who are looking for luxurious safari on a budget.

Abraham's Great Day - A prearranged trip with GAdventures. We stayed at Umbhaba Lodge, Hazyview. Early go time departing into KNP at 0600 via the Numbi gate. Abraham Mat was our driver/guide. He's very experienced knowing some animals, ex: cheetah brothers on sight. He also has an uncanny ability to find animals that it took a moment for the rest of us to see. He was knowledgeable about animal behavior & ecology. And, he was funny!!
