Norman and his team exhibit remarkable professionalism and warmth, attending to every detail needed for our comfort. The hotel and its staff provided a great beach experience. I must mention Lloyd, who took care of our transport to and from Johannesburg. His service was impeccable, timely, friendly, and always eager to meet our needs. We highly recommend their services.
After researching Kruger Safari Tours online, I chose Nhlalala Travel because of Norman's comprehensive and clear answers to my inquiries. His responsiveness and fair pricing won me over, and reviews further supported my decision. Our three-day safari experience in Kruger Park at the end of October 2025 included private transportation to and from Johannesburg OR Tambo Airport. Loyd picked us up at our hotel around 7:30 a.m. on the first day and drove us to Kruger Gate Hotel, where we checked in around 2 p.m. After some relaxation time, we enjoyed a sunset safari drive at 4 p.m. I highly recommend Kruger Gate Hotel for its proximity to the park entrance, well-maintained rooms, and excellent amenities like a zero-edge pool and quality buffet dinner. The second day featured a full-day private safari starting at 5 a.m. with about a dozen participants. Our guide, Roger, was knowledgeable and attentive to our requests, leading us to see numerous animals close up, including elephants, giraffes, and more. While we missed lions and rhinos, the overall experience was fulfilling. On our third day, Loyd again provided a private transfer after breakfast at 8 a.m. We took a scenic route through God's Window and Blyde River Canyon, which took longer but offered breathtaking views. We arrived back in Johannesburg around 6 p.m. at our hotel. The total cost of approximately 800€ per person was justified by the quality of service: two private transfers, two nights at a beautiful hotel with meals included, and both a sunset safari and a full-day private safari. Norman's professionalism throughout the booking process was commendable, as payments were straightforward. I wholeheartedly recommend Nhlalala Travel, and I'm grateful to Norman, Loyd, and Roger for a fantastic experience.
Nhlalala Travel Agency provided an outstanding experience for our group of six during our safari in South Africa. Their meticulous attention to detail and genuine concern for all our needs exceeded our expectations. Everything was smooth, personalized, and executed with real professionalism from beginning to end. Norman deserves special mention as he was the trip's backbone. His expertise, patience, and commitment elevated the experience to new heights—he truly deserves a raise. We will definitely be booking with Nhlalala again and highly recommend them.
We booked a 4-day Kruger package with Nhlalala Travel several months ahead of time, and their service has been exceptional from the start. Norman was responsive, accommodating, and tailored our itinerary to suit our preferences. Even when we added extra people shortly before we left, it was all handled smoothly. On travel day, our guide Norman picked us up in Johannesburg and managed the 6-hour drive to the Kruger Gate Hotel with ease and professionalism. The hotel was impressive, boasting a stunning location right at the entrance, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and excellent food. Norman truly enhanced our experience. He ranks among the finest guides we've encountered globally—knowledgeable, passionate, kind, humorous, and genuinely caring. He was quick to adjust our plans whenever we requested changes and often delivered even better alternatives. His enthusiasm for Kruger is infectious; it's clear he loves his work. We encountered the Big 5 numerous times, along with countless close-up elephant sightings, wild dogs, giraffes, hyenas, zebras, lions, hippos, and many unforgettable experiences. The entire trip was well-organized yet never felt hurried or overly commercialized. It was a personal and unique experience from beginning to end. Norman maintained communication through WhatsApp throughout. If you're considering a safari in Kruger, choose Nhlalala Travel and ask for Norman; it will be an experience you won't regret. A heartfelt thank you to the Nhlalala team for an incredible adventure. We look forward to returning!

I had an amazing 4-day safari in Kruger National Park, which included the panoramic route. Our driver was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, expertly guiding us to see the Big Five while sharing interesting background information. His humorous personality made the experience even more enjoyable. I would absolutely do this again. Thank you!

The safari was incredibly well-organized from beginning to end. Everything ran smoothly and was handled with genuine care. It was an unforgettable experience—truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment. The hotel was breathtaking and stood out as a highlight. Norman made planning effortless and tailored it to our needs. Our driver enhanced the journey significantly, making a 7-hour drive enjoyable while sharing a wealth of information. This reflects their professionalism and warmth. If I return, I won't consider any other company.
My dad and I just wrapped up an incredible 3-day tour of Kruger National Park with our guide, KHONGI. He was not only knowledgeable and professional but also punctual throughout the trip. He took us to several unique stops that left a lasting impression. KHONGI was genuinely caring and attentive, ensuring we had a fantastic experience. We both felt like we made a close friend. We will certainly book another safari tour with KHONGI when we return. The views on the panorama were breathtaking, and the evening safari sunset was truly special. We look forward to coming back.
This was an excellent experience. Our driver, Khongi, was very entertaining. We had the opportunity to see the Big 5 during our safari.
