SHANE ROYAL SAFARI & TOURS PHALABORWA

Had such a lovely two days with Elias. Had a sunset drive in Kruger and a morning cruise on the Oliphants River. He is so personable and knowledgeable in this space.

Elias and his wife are amazing! A lot of the reviews are for multiple day trips, we spent only 1 full day with them on safari and saw so many animals, including rhinos and wild dogs which are very rare! They picked us up from our guesthouse and dropped us off at our next guesthouse. Elias is so knowledgeable and fun to interact with!

For those who don't want to read long reviews, BOOK AND RECOMMEND!Elias is so passionate about what he does, it's unbelievable.Now you can say that the man is paid for it, but with him it's more than just a job.Do you have questions about trees?Ask him.About mammals?Ask him.About birds, spiders, fish and history?Just ask him!He is funny but also serious and makes the safari a fantastic lesson.And let's not forget the breakfast and lunch break. Elias' wife cooks for the trips and she knows what she is doing.Two great picnic breaks in two rest camps.Thanks for a great day!

The ranger is very friendly and the food is fine. We were not happy that he drove too fast through the park and only the passengers saw animals. It was more that we had a driver instead of a ranger/ tour guide. He was only driving without looking for animals. I wouldn't recommended. After lunch it was totally over. We flew through the park!

I just have been on a 6 days safari trip with Elias and Maria. Travelling with them gives you an ultimate bush experience. I have seen so many animals, also learned about them and their habitat. Enjoyed the home cooked breakfast and lunches. I just can't wait to see them next year!

What an adventure! Elias is very knowledgeable and experienced. I highly recommend using Shane Royal Safaris.

We had such a great day with Elias, fantastic safari he really took the time to make sure we got the best out of the day, which we did seeing four of the big 5 amongst a host of others. No corporate hassle just great friendly service, lovely breakfast and lunch included and so much brilliant information. We would definitely spend another day with him.

Elias is very knowledgeable about the kruger. We had a fantastic day.
