Traveller Overview
Jody
We went on the day tour where we saw even more animals. Senzo was great, very knowledgeable, and prepared an amazing lunch for us. It was so nice to hear so much information and facts about the park and the animals in it.
Victor
Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guides, with lots of information about the animals + environment and very persistent to show all kinds of different animals. Thanks, guys, would definitely recommend you and Heritage Tours & Safaris to others.
Peter
We booked a full-day safari with Heritage Tours and were lucky to be hosted by Senzo who had coincidentally hosted our son when he visited in October. Senzo was charming, helpful, and really well informed. Not only did he spot lots of animals and birds but he also told us a lot about them. All in all a great way to see some of Africa's wildlife.
