We booked our honeymoon through Bronte Safaris, and had a fantastic time. Luci provided some great lodge options, and did so much to ensure that it was an extra special time. It was the holiday of a lifetime and I really can't think of anything that could have been done better. I would absolutely recommend Bronte Safaris to anyone looking to book a holiday in Africa - they have great knowledge of the options that are available, and organized everything for a hassle-free experience.

I recently used Bronte Safaris to organise a trip to Namibia and Botswana, and the experience exceeded all expectations. Luci, in particular, went above and beyond to tailor every aspect of our journey to our preferences. The trip was seamlessly executed, from the planning to the final details. Luci was highly engaged and always available to answer any questions. I cannot recommend Bronte Safaris highly enough for a customised, stress-free experience.

Luci recently organised an unforgettable bush trip to the Timbavati for a group of our friends… the whole experience was nothing short of extraordinary!! From start to finish, the organization was seamless, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience without a worry. The communication throughout the process was exceptional, making us feel well-informed and cared for at every step. And the wildlife sightings were out of this world – a pride of Lion on an elephant carcass, two elusive Leopard sightings, a wild cat and absolutely everything in between!! Luci and Brontë Safaris truly delivered a magical experience that exceeded all our expectations. We can’t recommend them enough for anyone seeking an authentic and well organised African adventure. We will all cherish these incredible memories for years to come!

I had the most incredible experience with Bronti Safaris. Luci crafted a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that included a luxurious safari in Kruger National Park, where I enjoyed exquisite accommodation and superb fine dining. The private group safaris were exceptional, and I was thrilled to see the 'big 5' up close. In addition to this amazing safari, Luci also organised a breathtaking day trip to Cape Hope and a separate excursion to the stunning Victoria Falls. Luci and her team's wealth of knowledge and the variety of experiences offered make Bronti Safaris a market leader in unforgettable adventures. Every aspect of the journey was meticulously planned to ensure that I had immersive, enriching experiences throughout. Bronti Safaris embodies its values perfectly through its commitment to exquisite accommodation, personalised experiences, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. I’m already looking forward to my next adventure with them!

Luci organized two unforgettable trips for me. One to the awe inspiring Vic Falls, where we stayed at the very cool Stanley and Livingstone, where you could see animals from your room! And a second to Tanda Tula in Kruger, where we saw all of the Big 5 and indulged in so many delicious meals. Luci helped make sure I got the experience my partner and I were after, and made the whole experience travelling to Southern Africa from Canada a breeze.
