4 Night Zululand Safari Testimonials
Amazing
Request Stacy Ferrel as she is an AMAZING guide not to be missed!! We went on an evening Hippo/Crocodile boat tour, Hluhluwe Imfolozi day safari, Western shore night tour, and morning Eastern shore tour.
Her knowledge of the area, animals, culture, and environment made all of our tours fun and educational. Her attention to detail and safety allowed us to relax while in her care.
She went out of her way to share her camera lens with our daughter and picking up and delivered our passports left behind in a hotel safe.
Her co-worker Vuzi who drove us when not on safaris, was also fantastic and very knowledgeable often stopping for us to see animals or explain Zulu culture. He was a great driver, very trustworthy and we felt secure with him driving us.
The Best Experience Ever
Our 7 day Safari package was packed with memorable experiences and outstanding customer service. David took us on Safari in iMfolosi the first day and gave us a day to remember.
Elephants, giraffe, rhino, impala, wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, warthogs, up close. He cooked a delicious braai, inspired confidence when confronted with challenges, and was a wonderful ambassador.
John was our guide for the rest of our driving trips and he was a walking encyclopedia of local info. We wanted to adopt him! His attention to detail, passion for his job, and quiet confidence was inspiring. Thank you to Heritage Tours for a trip to remember. We'll be back!
Perfect Safari Package
This was a return trip for us after a gap of 5 years, this time we stayed in the excellent Heritage House Lodge, where the accommodation, service, and meals were first class ....... highly recommended !!
Overall the service and tours provided were very informative and fully absorbing. We had Tracey as a guide for both of our day trips and the knowledge she passed on was first class.
I would thoroughly recommend Heritage Tours, Quentin, and Mandy the owners respond very quickly to any questions or queries and are very flexible in tailoring your package to suit your specific needs ....... a very well-run family business.
We will return and will have no hesitation in using them again.
