I used Biggestleaf Travel for a photo tour to Botswana again in 2026 (after having a great experience with them in 2025) and had an awesome trip. The team is attentive, professional, knowledgeable, and listens well. They made the entire experience seamless and smooth. They are well-connected with great lodges and can provide a safari for any budget. I highly recommend them - Vera, Joanne, & Robert are awesome to work with! I plan on using them for more trips to Botswana in the future! Mike G.

We used BiggestLeaf travel from our 5-day safari in South Africa. They couldn’t have been more professional and helpful. Our agent, Sarah, was excellent and quickly put together a package for us comprising domestic flights from JNB, all road transportation, hotels, guides etc. The whole holiday went without a glitch and was seamless. Couldn’t have asked for a more suitable travel agency and would highly recommend. Thanks!

Our trip to Welgevonden was put together by Jenny from Biggest leaf travel , who did an awesome Job of advising us on various lodges as this was our first visit to this varied magnificent game reserve in july this year .. We were fortunate enough to stay at two of the beautiful lodges within the reserve and hope to go back and try others ! Our visit took us to Laluka and Makweti , and they were just fabulous both lodges having equally special features , ambience staff and gorgeous accommodation... Its hard to say which was more special as we were thoroughly spoilt at both !! Laluka had a particularly welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere & staff , which lived up to its name that you feel like family in a heartbeat. More modern in deco, with a well designed open lounge and viewing deck & curio shop. Not for the faint hearted with its many steps to your rooms , but well worth bit of effort as they were modern comfortable and delightful with their individual swimming pool deck and views. Makweti was all that is Africa - comfortable cosy and welcoming and the staff are dedicated to making your stay exceptional in a quiet warm friendly and un-intrusive manner .. Everyone went out of their way to ensure that we had a memorable stay with great game drives & delicious food and I had a most enjoyable birthday which will long be a precious memory to recall. Our warm regards & thanks go to you all for making this such a magical memory in fabulous Welgevonden game reserve .

Great 1 day safari at Pilanesberg The transfer driver was on time, professional and transfer vehicle was very comfortable. The 2 game drives (#1 3hrs, #1 2 hrs) were excellent with a very friendly and knowledgeable guide, James. We saw a wide range of animals including elephant, giraffe, rhino and hippo. The lunch menu was good and the food was very tasty. I'd really recommend this excursion despite the long transfer time from/to Stanton in Johannesburg.

Exceptional safari and breathtaking wildlife The incredible diversity of wildlife in Madikwe truly set this safari apart, and everything was flawlessly organized from start to finish. Both lodges exceeded expectations with their comfort and charm. I highly recommend choosing Madikwe over Kruger or Sabi Sands because of the sheer variety of species you can encounter here—it’s a nature lover’s paradise!

A perfect experience, thank you Jenny! Jenny from Biggestleaf Travel helped me book my safari experience in Pilanesberg National Park at Tambuti Lodge, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took care of everything, including transportation from Johannesburg, and communicated all the details clearly and efficiently, always with such a friendly and positive attitude. I highly recommend Biggestleaf Travel for the smooth and reliable booking process and the kindness of their team. I also can’t recommend Tambuti Lodge enough, my stay there was absolutely idyllic and truly exceptional. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable experience!

Our Zambia The trip was amazing! All felt the accommodations and the adventures were incredible. The transfers were smooth, the team at JNB upon our return was key ! I do not think we would have made the connection to Swiss Air without the team shuffling us quickly through passport control. The accommodations were fantastic - well beyond what my kids expected! The teams at the Kafunta and Royal Zambezi couldn't have been more accommodating. We were treated very well, and all were thrilled! I believe we spotted every animal with the exception of a male lion. The drivers were unbelievable the way the searched and spotted the animals in their habitat. They were knowledgeable about all the wildlife, including birds. One of my sons-in-law loves bird watching and he was impressed and thrilled with the sightings and the guides' assistance. Thank you for all of your help with the planning and setting up a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our family. I will not hesitate to recommend you to friends as they ask questions and hopefully plan a trip of their own!

Dear Elizabeth,
Jo is delighted to hear that everything went smoothly, even the tight connection at OR Tambo with the help of our airport colleagues at Menzies. We will also pass your compliments onto our safari colleagues at Royal Zambezi and Kafunta - both really are birdwatching paradises and we're thrilled that your son-in-law enjoyed his time there. Thank you for the heartfelt recommendation and apologies for not seeing a male lion (a great reason to return, we think!).

Jenny & Sarah assisted me in organising a surprise trip for my husbands 70th birthday in two different locations, Welgavonden at Clifftop Exclusive Safari Hideaway (Jenny) and Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda (Sarah). Both Jenny & Sarah specialised in each of the areas and spent time putting together an itinerary for me which was very detailed and informative. They were both a pleasure to deal with and I cant wait for this exciting trip to begin Thank you for both of them for their help with this planning.
