The views were amazing, we saw a lot of animals from very closeby. And we had an amazing guide, Yamkela. He was very friendly and enthusiastic and has a great knowledge of the animals that live in the Isimangaliso Parc and he loves to share that knowledge which was great. He does his utmost for his guests. We needed to be back at the gate before six o'clock in the evening because the gate closes at that time. However, on the way back to the gate we saw an elephant next to the road that was going to pass over to the other side of the road, very nice to see and Yamkela stopped to watch, even though it would be a close call to make it to the gate in time. (Fortunately, we did make it to the gate in time :-))

We booked a 3 nights package and everything was perfect. For the whole 3 days we had our guide Lindoh. He was such a friendly guy and he made our experience so amazing.
Thanks Lindoh for that.
If you will travel to St.Lucia dont hesitate to book the safari packages with Heritage Tours and Safaris. The are the absolute best choice.

We had the three day safari and had a truly amazing experience. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the communication was very easy with the team, but what really made our experience so special was our guide Arno. He went above and beyond for us to get the most of Hluhluwe and Isimangaliso, despite the rain. We will have life lasting memories…
Thank you so much !

We visited Zululand and stayed at Heritage Tours and Safaris for 3 nights. Our guides Pindi and Jabulani were both exceptional. Their knowledge of the fauna and flora of the iSiMangaliso Wetland Park and the Hhluhluwe Umfolozi Game Reserve was impressive and kept us fascinated. We had Jabulani as our guide on our second and third days and he really went the extra mile to track as many of the Big 5 as he could for us. We were very fortunate to see a big herd of Elephant swimming and frolicking in the river close up. Jabulani is also an expert at mimicry of a vairety of African birds which kept us entertained as the birds called back to him. At the lodge Thea was very attentive to our needs and kept us informed about the load shedding schedule, even offering to turn on the generator especially for us if we wanted to shower. The gardener Umfaan washed our dusty vehicle without being asked to which was very kind of him as well. All in all a great Tour company that looked after us beautifully.

We did a full day Hluhluwe Umfolozi tour. We met our ranger Phindi at Nyalazi Gate at 6am. First of all praise for Phindi, such a beautiful soul, happy to chat, friendly, very knowledgeable about the wildlife, animals, birds, plants and how they relate to traditional Zulu life, and boy can she spot wildlife. The drive around the park was broken up by a lovely breakfast at 8 with a walk around a market to buy some hand made gifts, and a lovely barbecue lunch at 12. We saw lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, zebra, giraffe, a huge variety of buck, a huge variety of birds, terrapins, tortoise, monkey, even stink bugs! And a very interesting education of the plants and how they are traditionally used! It can get a bit windy but blankets and raincoats are provided Highly recommend this tour! Ask for Phindi!! We had a 7 year old with us and he thoroughly enjoyed the tour too!

We had an amazing time. We did a half day safari with Zayn, who was incredibly skilled in spotting animals even far away.
We saw many animals, including lions and cheetahs, and the guide gave us all of the necessary information.
Would 100% recommend.
We also went on the boat cruise in the afternoon and spotted many hippos and rare birds. Would definitely recommend it too.

If you’re in this town, you do not want to miss this experience. This gives you a great opportunity to see hippos, and hopefully crocs, at close range which you are not likely to do in the game reserves. Knowledgeable and friendly staff!

We booked our first Sunset Tour on the Eastern shores and it was so much more than we expected. We spotted rhino, hippo, buffalo, zebra, kudu, impala and had an amazing encounter with the elephants.
Bheki Yamkela was our guide, he has excellent knowledge of the park and animals as well as a wicked sense of humour. He is very professional and attentive and made sure we were always safe and comfortable, even when the elephants decided to make leaving the park difficult. We will be booking our next tour with him nd can recommend his services to anyone visiting the area.
