        An incredible experience
        We had an amazing trip to South Africa including three weeks organised by Legend Safaris, during which time we visited Kruger National Park, Mala Mala, Umhlanga, Hluhluwe and Addo National Park. We wanted to use a local agent to organise the safaris, flights, hotel and car hire. We were absolutely delighted with Shaneen and his team, particularly Pravir and Bradley, who guided our first week. Pravir provided excellent photographic support in Kruger and Mala Mala. The whole team was very knowledgeable and great fun. We would highly recommend Shaheen and Legend Safaris, and hope to travel with them again in the not too distant future.

        A Dream Come True with Legend Safaris
        My family and I recently went on a 7-night safari to the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, expertly organized by Legend Safaris. From the initial planning to the end of our trip, every detail was thoughtfully arranged. Mr. Shaheen Patel ensured that our journey was customized to meet our specific needs, including dietary preferences, and communicated these effectively to the lodges. We were fortunate to have Mr. Pravir Patel as our private guide, who accompanied us throughout the trip. He made sure that we had a memorable experience at each lodge we visited. Pravir's knowledge and his tips on photography were invaluable. I highly recommend Legend Safaris to anyone planning a safari. Their professionalism and commitment towards delivering a seamless experience for their clients is unparalleled.

        Great day in the park!
        I did the Kruger Safari tour with 8 other people doing a bigger tour. Our guide was Abraham M. He was knowledgeable and informed about the park and the animals found there. He located many different animals and birds and gave us time to enjoy each animal experience as well as time to get photos. He drove considerately and safely . I had a wonderful day and would recommend this tour with Abraham to friends. Well done!! 👍

        Second day with Mr Pleasure guide just as good as first. This man must be THE BEST guide. Makes every moment a pleasurable happy experience while delivering the most informative comments and an eagle eye that never misses a siting. Requested him for a second day and was well rewarded with the safari he delivered. Many many thanks for two BEST happiest days. A real education about the park and its wildlife..

        We would like to thank our tour guide! Sipho Zitha. Very informative tour around Kruger Park. He told us about animal habits, habitats & behaviours, also shared information about different trees and plants! Told us plants that can be used for medicinal purposes.

        Brilliant! Our guided tour was a very interesting, unforgettable educational experience . While my family managed to see only four of the big five, the diverse wildlife (including bird life) at the Kruger National Park was equally fascinating- thanks to our tour guide

        Leopards up close
        This is the second tour we booked through Legend, a very different experience than full day drive as it’s on a private reserve in an area that’s green with water supply year round. We were picked up on time around 2:30pm and taken to the private reserve, it is a long drive to get into that part of KNP. We saw 3 leopards and a leopard cub pretty close, along with many wild life. Dinner was good.

        Unique experience
        We had a great half day morning tour with Bradley. He picked us up from our accommodation on time and we were on our way. He was very polite and knowledgeable and ready to answer all questions. His knowledge about the park, animals and even the forest was great. On our tour we saw Elephants, Lion, Giraffes, zebras, wild dogs, blue wilder beasts, Hippo, Antelopes, Ostrich. We didn’t see Rhino, Buffaloes, Chetah, Leopard. I guess it depends on the day, weather, where the animals are and a lot of unknowns. Bradley tried his best to find all and we appreciate his efforts. I did like not driving and having a knowledgeable guide show you around and maximize the number of sightings you can have. Definitely worth going with an experienced guide if you are unsure or not done such an experience before.

      Thank you so much for all your help and hospitality.
      We all had an amazing time with your tour guide Bradley. He was extremely patient, polite and courteous. He paid special attention to the elderly and our needs- food, washrooms and comfort. He was very careful with the vehicle at all times as well.
      We had arranged an all day tour and surprisingly seen the Big Five in 4 hours.
      I sincerely recommend this tour group (Legend Safaris) for seniors to safari the Kruger Park with comfort and safety.

      I researched many of the safari companies while I was planning a trip to South Africa and into Kruger Park. Legend Safari's kept coming to the top, meeting all the criteria I was looking for. From the first email requesting information, I knew I was making the right choice. Sarah was impressively responsive and took care of all the booking details. She was professional and personable. I knew my booking would go without a hitch.
      She arranged a shuttle from White River to Hazyview as I didn't want to drive at 4:30am. Bradley Cooper was the shuttle driver and then our day tour guide. He didn't sing !!! like the actor Bradley Cooper but was one of the best guides we have had. He was an excellent driver and turned the vehicle around in many directions to give us the best view. He communicated with many of the other guides on the radio and on his Guides WhatApp group who he knows well. to pinpoint where game could be found during our 8hr tour. He found all of the Big 5 which is almost unheard of. He was full of information about all of the animals we saw. His information regarding the symbiotic relationships between many animals and birds was so interesting. He was fun, and professional and clearly has a passion for sharing his country and the Kruger Park with visitors. Altogether we saw 16 different animals. 10 birds and thousands of Impala !!!. He even drove 20 Kms to see if a leopard and his porcupine prey was still right off the road, it was and was amazing, so was the traffic jam of cars wanting to see it as well. I highly recommend Legend Safaris,Sarah and Bradley. One helpful tip!! the breakfast stop for 30mins and lunch stop 45 minutes is very tight as the food service is extremely slow in all places. So perhaps bring your own or order and eat quickly ! Use the restroom quickly too as those are the only restroom stops.After all we were there to see the game not really to eat !!! Thank you Legend Safaris

      The tour was absolutely amazing, Bradley our tour guide was so spot on, we saw the entire big five plus more! He knew exactly where to go and when to go, plus they were so close to us so we got to take great pictures. Shaheen was also super accommodating as I called last minute and he still called me back to fit me in for the next day. Great services I will definitely be back.

      As we made our way out towards exiting the park, we had an excellent daywith Legend Safaris.
      Excellent services provided not withstanding the great guide Bradley and his knowledge that he has about his environment and work.
      We were fortunate 4 out of Big-5, but the lack of that elusive Leopard was made up by the Cheetah...
      Overall, it's simple- we would recommend Legend Safaris for your next KNP experience.

      We had a great day's viewing with Bradley from Legend seeing four of the Big Five before breakfast.
      So pleased we booked an organised tour into the Kruger NP as we met several self-drive tourists who had seen very little by comparison.
      From start to finish this was very professionally organised. Communications post booking were excellent, the pick up from our accommodation in Hazyview punctual and Bradley knew how to make the most of our visit. Superb viewing. We'll have to come back for the leopard.:-)

      While we did have nice guides, Amaze and Tracy, the tour was definitely lacking. Most of the animals were so far in the distance so we couldn't really see them. He drove the same 2 roads. After lunch I heard Tracy say we took the wrong roads. Other guides were giving him tips but he didn't seem interested. People that went with other companies saw so much more, up close. At one stage Amaze pulled up at a tree and said I know you haven't seen animals but this tree is called apple leaf tree, and gave us information. If this had of been our first tour in Kruger I would never suggest anyone go there ever.

      Thanks for the booking and for the review. Unfortunately the Kruger is not a zoo and sightings cannot be guaranteed, as naturally, animals move in its open ecosystem. I have chatted to my guides and the route that they took on the day was the route which on the previous day they had incredible sightings. Kruger is huge and one cannot be everywhere all the time, hence why some see more than others. Hope you have better luck next time.

      We did a full day Safari tour and were able to see lots of elephants, lions up close multiple times, baby hyenas with mom, leopards from far away, and countless other wild life in their natural habitat. Our driver is in constant communication to find wild life for us to see. Booking process was easy, and Sarah answered all our questions promptly through the booking process. Highly recommended!

      We had an amazing experience with Legend Safaris last year! Bradley was the best guide who was determined to show us the big 5 in one day - so glad we got to see them all and so many more sightings. He also provided great commentary and jokes along the way. Would really recommend this company!

      Beautiful & memorable experience, our guide Nomatter was wonderful. His knowledge & passion made the tour even more special. Nomatter gladly answered all our questions & sharing his experiences too. He's clearly an expert in his field. Nomatter made us feel comfortable, making the tour exciting & relaxing at the same time.

      Seeing the big 5 & many other animals and creatures in their natural habitat is amazing.

      Worth the early morning wake up, cannot wait to book again soon. The Legends Safari team (Sarah & Shaheen) are professional and friendly, seamless booking process from start to finish.

      Great value for money, highly recommend!!!

      Facilities in Kruger National Park are great. Unfortunately no halaal food vendors in the Park, but day visitors are allowed to bring in food & drinks.
