- Jean Marc P5 contributionsAlways amazed by the beauty of the park. We visit regularly as we moved near the park for retirement. Will never get bored of the beauty of nature. Best times for viewing are early(and I mean early!) and after 4 pm. Open your eyes and enjoy...Written 25 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

I expected to leave a message and didn't hold out much hope for a callback but Jill answered the phone, put us through to Carl and we had a great first conversation!
Thank you Carl, Jill!!! What a great way to start travelling again!!!
From our first conversation covering what we wanted to see, where we wanted to go, Carl's itinerary covered our want list and more. We got history, glamping, big 5, delicious food, met with wonderful people and received amazing support from home when we needed it - (got caught in the Cape Town storm of the century. Was totally surprised to have Carl contact us to see if we were okay because he saw that roads - N1, N2 - were closed. I can't describe the feeling knowing that someone was looking out for us); forgot our camera at one of our safaris... Yes, Carl got it to us before we flew out.
Home now, just under 2 weeks and we're ready to go again (actually, mom wasn't ready to come home!).
Only feature missing was Carl as our guide (previous reviews, he was the guide) but the local guides he arranged for us were very good.Written 18 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Lawsons made all the arrangements for us and booked our amazing guide Nic. We started with a night at Blyde Canyon, then 5 nights in 3 rest camps at Kruger then 3 nights at Idube. Collected and dropped at Nelspruit airport. We were taken care of so very well and it was an honour to be guided by somebody with Nic’s expertise. Lawsons communicated well throughout the booking process and their attention to detail enabled me to relax completely and enjoy the experience. I believe this trip was very good value for money for the standard of the trip and I look forward to booking with Lawsons again. Thank you.Written 6 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- enoohsingapore166 contributionsMornay was a knowledgable tour guide who took good care of me and my partner while we visited Kruger National Park. Mornay was himself passionate about wildlife and he shared voraciously about his knowledge of the animals we encountered as we drove through the safari. He knew instinctively how to approach animals safely and he successfully got us up close to see and hear a large male elephant! Beyond the wildlife, his general knowledge of South Africa also gave us a good glimpse of the local way of life. He also introduced us to fresh Biltong, which my partner and I fell in love with instantaneously. What a great snack to have while enjoying the safari!Written 23 May 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Vanessa AtimNelspruit, South Africa2 contributionsI took my boyfriend to Dakota Ranch for his birthday and we both had the best time. The guides are super sociable, kind and funny. The horses are gorgeous and the whole place has real character.Written 3 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
