EXCELLENT Based on 19 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor meeVerified An Awesome Experience One of the best decisions we made while planning for our South Africa trip was to choose these people to show us the infamous Kruger National Park. We had two incredible days with VJ inside the park. An no words would be enough to thank VJ for his vast knowledge perfectly blended with professionalism. Between two days we spent almost 18 hours within the park and we managed to see all possible animals. More importantly, we gathered wealth of knowledge about this incredible park. As a company Wild Photo Africa Safaris has proven me wrong that private safaris are more expensive than the Group ones.Posted on Tripadvisor kwachamacallitVerified Great Kruger tour for photographers If you are one of those people slinging a long telephoto lens and only shoot in RAW, this is your operator for a Kruger safari. Even if you only have an iPhone, this is also your operator if you value high-quality photos. My family and I opted for a private full-day safari at Kruger and were not disappointed. Our safari guide, VJ, was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the park and was able to get us to the Big 5 (and then some) within a couple of hours. VJ made the 10+ hour safari fun and enjoyable. More importantly, he is a talented photographer himself who knows what other serious photographers are looking for and can give very helpful hints on how to get a great shot. If there is a branch that is blocking the perfect view of that giraffe, he will move the vehicle until you have a clean shot. There are lots of great tour operators at Kruger and they all know each other and share information on animal sightings, but if you are a serious photographer I would highly recommend a private vehicle with this operator, Wild Photo Africa Safaris.Posted on Tripadvisor Kimmy CVerified Amazing experience Mario created a once in a lifetime curated experience that I will not soon forget! We saw close up lions, zebras, giraffes, impalas - the list goes on and on. A must do for any South Africa vacation!Posted on Tripadvisor Julie HarveyVerified Highly Recommend - Wild Photo Africa Safaris for visiting the Kruger National Park Who needs David Attenborough or Google when you have Wild Photo Africa Safaris and a very professional guide, Viljoen Jordaan (VJ). On Thursday, 19 September 2024 my financé, mum and I booked a private game drive, we were picked up at 5am from our accommodation in Marloth Park and VJ drove us to the Crocodile Bridge Gate (KNP). Well what a memorial day and experience. My financé and I are usually very lucky on our day trips to the Kruger National Park, this time was an exception and a once in a lifetime experience, we watched 8 lions trying to take down a buffalo, wow what an awesome, awesome, awesome sighting, we watched for well over an hour, we also saw lots of elephants, zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, giraffe, springbuck, bucks, kudu, nala, water hogs, leopards, hippo, crocodile, as well as lots of different species of birds. VJ was very knowledgeable from animals, birds and trees, you could ask him anything, almost like having your own Google onboard. Thank you VJ and Wild Photo Africa Safaris for a wonderful day out and memories that will last a lifetime. We will continue to come back for many, many more! I would highly recommend your company and services to anyone looking for a memorable experience. You are very prompt, professional and making a booking with you was an absolute pleasure. We were so lucky!Posted on Tripadvisor Sightsee389678Verified Fun day with Wild Photo Africa Safaris. We had amazing sightings with Mario on our recent visit to Kruger National Park, it was simply outstanding. We had a fantastic day! Highly recommended!Posted on Tripadvisor Michelle EksteenVerified Another amazing experience with Mario Highly recommended! We thoroughly enjoyed our game drive with Mario. He was also very accommodating with our group - with 2 small kids on the drive, we planned our trip ahead for their and our comfort. We saw the the big five and learned a lot. Thank you Mario.Posted on Tripadvisor Stefanie HVerified Absolutely fantastic!!!! We had the best time ever! We were looking for a German-speaking guide and all arrangements were easily possible in German. Unfortunately, due to family matters, Mario was unable to accompany us himself, but he immediately provided a great replacement. Despite everything, both were always in contact to give us the best safari possible and Marios wife even organized a delicious braai for us in one of the Kruger Camp.Posted on Tripadvisor Simone SVerified Excellent We have been on safaris with Wild Photo Africa a few times and their guides are the best!!! Every safari is an experience to be treasured.Posted on Tripadvisor cherylpincusVerified Fantastic day safari in KNP We did a full day safari with Mario last Sunday. It was fantastic!! He is so knowledgeable about all aspects of the bush and so accomodating. We learnt so much. 5 stars service!!Posted on Tripadvisor DaveVerified Awesome We had such an awesome experience with Mario. This was a delayed 60th birthday present for me and didn’t disappoint!! Before the day I was at best a basic photographer keen, but clueless. Mario was super patient with us both. Clear and non technical, his information was easily absorbed. He adjusted settings on our cameras and within just a few hours we were taking photos at a level we would never have expected. Add to this his passion and knowledge of the bush and Mario completes the all round package. We are not Big 5 chasers and this added to the day as we could spend the day learning about all types of animals and plants in Kruger. Whether you are looking for a photographic experience or simply want a safari with one of the most genuine people we have come across, you won’t be disappointed. 10/10 for Mario.
EXCELLENT Based on 74 reviews Posted on Google Jendrik RoesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hatten 3 coole Safaritage mit Mario. Besonders für deutschsprachige geeignet da er super deutsch spricht.Posted on Google J STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From pick up to drop off our tour guide Viljoen (VJ) was excellent, made sure we were all comfortable and had what we needed. His knowledge shared was amazing alot learnt and he was very patient and kind and excellent with the kids they loved his magic trick. Definitely recommend him. Thank you for making our first experience at the Kruger a memorable one.Posted on Google Leo FeissliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the absolute pleasure of spending the day on safari with Ockie Botha from Wild Photo Africa, and what an unforgettable experience it was From start to finish, Ockie was nothing short of exceptional. His knowledge of the bush is truly outstanding and not only could he find incredible sightings, but he also took the time to explain animal behavior, ecosystems, and the finer details that most people would completely miss. It added such depth to the entire experience. And the sightings were simply unbelievable. We were lucky enough to see lions, cheetahs, and wild dogs all in one day something incredibly rare along with so many other special moments in the bush. It honestly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime safari. What really stood out, though, was Ockie himself. His passion, professionalism, and genuine enthusiasm for what he does made the day even more special. He made us feel completely at ease, tailored the experience to us, and ensured we got the most out of every moment. If you are considering a safari with Wild Photo Africa, we cannot recommend Ockie highly enough. He is a world-class guide. Thank you, Ockie, for an incredible day we will never forgetPosted on Google Rochelle JacobsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our day-long photo safari with Andrew was absolutely the highlight of our year. I was spoiled by my family with this day trip for my birthday and I would not be exaggerating if I say that the trip was nothing short of inspiring. I’m primarily a bird photographer and was feeling very “stuck” when it came to photographing wildlife - our trip with Andrew got me firmly unstuck, inspiring me to try new things, look at things in new ways and remember when it’s time to put the camera down and just enjoy the moment. Spent the day learning and laughing and it was the best birthday gift possible!Posted on Google Joerg KochTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an absolutely outstanding day on our Kruger National Park safari, and a huge part of that experience was thanks to our incredible driver and guide! From the very beginning, he was exceptionally friendly, professional, and attentive. He made every effort to ensure that all participants felt comfortable and that everyone’s individual wishes were taken into account. Whether it was spending a little more time at a sighting, adjusting the route, or answering our many questions, he handled everything with patience, flexibility, and genuine enthusiasm. His knowledge was impressive — every question we asked was answered quickly, clearly, and with fascinating detail. At the same time, he drove very safely and considerately, so we always felt completely relaxed and well taken care of. Thanks to him, this safari was not just a tour, but a truly memorable experience. I felt perfectly looked after from start to finish and would highly recommend this excursion — especially with such a dedicated and passionate guide. Thank you for making this day in Kruger National Park so special!Posted on Google yt weissTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. VJ was a very competent and friendly guide. He picked us up promptly in the morning and drove us to the gate of Kruger National Park. Once there, he made entry very easy, and shortly after entering the park, we saw our first rhinos. He explained the origins of every animal and plant, including which ones are particularly beneficial to animals and insects. Except for the water buffalo, we saw all of the Big Five by mid-morning. He took plenty of time to stop everywhere and explain the animals' behavior. He was also able to explain in-depth questions very clearly to us laypeople, making it incredibly enjoyable to spend the whole day with him and listen to his knowledge. I would book him again for a safari anytime.Posted on Google danne JzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An exceptional safari experience in Kruger National Park. Wild Photos Africa safaris is the definition of professional. If you want the very best, then my guide Viljeon is absolutely the guide for you. (I also believe his business partner Mario is just as passionate). His depth of knowledge about wildlife and birds completely blew me away — every drive was fascinating, informative, and exciting. You can truly feel his passion for the bush, and it elevates the entire safari experience. I couldn’t recommend him more highly. We saw so many animals and birds. I truely enjoyed and will definitely use them again when I return.Posted on Google Nesh MungrooTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were quite fortunate to have found this entity while searching for Birding Safari’s in the Kruger Park. Spent a full day with VJ and his expansive, well experienced knowledge. Highly recommended as they understand the territories, habitats, bird calls, and locations of many of the species. Was an amazing, memorable day spotting 126 species half of which we had never encountered before.Posted on Google Bankim NZTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
