Thanks for an amazing safari experience
Hi Corlie, Our family would like to extend our sincere thanks for an amazing safari experience! Your patience and understanding going over options and details were greatly appreciated, and all the logistics were flawless. The hotel in Johannesburg was nice and convenient, and our driver to Kruger Park (Brian) was prompt, courteous, and extremely informative discussing numerous aspects of South African history, geography, and culture along the way.
After a seamless transition to our safari vehicle and guide (Frank), we entered Kruger Park for four days of spectacular scenery and wildlife viewing. Frank's phenomenal experience, dedication, and thoughtfulness were immediately evident, and his extraordinary effort provided an adventure of a lifetime we will surely never forget.
Each game drive brought new excitement, as we literally never knew what we would see around the next bend. Frank ensured we not only saw every bit of aesthetic beauty the park had to offer but also that we grew to appreciate fascinating details of animal behavior and complex interrelationships within the local ecosystem. He was so engaging, even our teenage daughters were captivated to the point they didn't even miss their electronics, other than to take pictures of course.
As if that weren't enough, bonding while sharing stories at mealtime with Frank (and Chef Jacques, who prepared an exquisite array of delicious local cuisine!), made each day even more memorable. Their genuine hospitality truly made us feel as if we were guests in their own home, and we went to bed every night with full bellies and smiling faces, reliving the wonders of the day while anticipating what the dawn may bring.
The only difficulty we experienced was facing the inevitable reality that our safari, and time with our new South African "family", must sadly come to an end as we made (slept) our way back to the airport to return home. However, the elation of the entire experience lives on in each of us, and we hope to return someday.
