We’re thrilled to announce that guests Anna-Lisa and Rick have chosen to feature in our #GuestSafariReview series! This charismatic couple from the Netherlands spent two unforgettable nights at Africa on Foot in the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, where they were treated to an incredible array of wildlife sightings. They expressed, “We would love to share our amazing experience”—music to our ears! They even shared a stunning collection of their own photos, showcased below. From leopards to lions and everything in between, this Dutch couple thoroughly enjoyed their Kruger Klaserie safari. If you’ve been on safari with us and would like to share your story on our blog, we’d love to hear from you! By contributing and sharing your adventure, you can join the ranks of this Dutch couple.
It’s time to get nosy. Without further ado, here are the interview questions from this couple’s stay at the inimitable Africa on Foot.
We’d love to get to know you. Would you mind sharing a little bit about yourself?
Hi! We are Anna-Lisa and Rick, a couple from the Netherlands. We love to travel (obviously), love sports, and enjoy time with friends and family.
What made you want to visit Africa on Foot camp for a portion of your safari experience?
We loved the possibility of doing a safari on foot, and the reviews looked amazing so we were sold! (Team Sun Destinations loves this!)
What was your favourite aspect of Africa on Foot camp?
The passion and knowledge of the people working at the camp. The people were incredible! (And that’s why we call the the A-team!)
Please tell us about your top wildlife sighting while out on game drive or the bush walk?
Spotting a leopard in the wild!!!!
What’s the best “small creature” to spot on safari?
A chameleon (the A-team guides are experts at finding these creatures in the dead of night)
What can our guests expect from this particular safari experience?
An unforgettable experience with the most amazing people, where everyone honestly cares about the animals in the bush.
How has being immersed in nature during your safari experiences, impacted your perspective on conservation?
We could see that they are busy with saving animals who are struggling, which was a big plus for us! And also how the camp is built in a sustainable way was really amazing.
During your downtime at the lodge, what did you do?
We had time to lay at the pool and enjoy conversations with the others guests and rangers!
Do you have any insightful or even funny anecdotes about your safari that you’d like to share?
While filming a TikTok, Rick accidentally dropped Anna on the ground. In the meantime, a lot of people have walked by and the entire team knew about our failed TikTok and Rick’s sprained back! (the things we do for social media)

Affectionally known as the A-team, the staff at Africa on Foot pride themselves on offering a world-class experience to adventurous travellers from around the world. The trails guides and trackers lead the bush walks in the mornings, and evening game drives. The hosts are warm, friendly and welcoming – everyone leaves feeling like a friend! But it’s not only the guiding and hospitality at Africa on Foot that’s impressive. The accommodation (for a “comfortable camp”) is incredible. Recently refurbished to highlight the muted hues of the bushveld while incorporating vibrant pops of colour, Africa on Foot is nothing short of stylish.
Accommodation is in classic brick chalets with thatched roofs, which gives that iconic safari feel. There are only five rooms available, each offering a sense of comfort amidst wild surroundings. For the more adventurous at heart, there is the option of the treehouse at an extra cost. Set just on the outskirts of camp, the treehouse offers overnight accommodation in a tall wooden structure that’s eye level with the trees. Aside from some wood and canvas, the front is open and overlooks the whole of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve.
When you’re not relaxing in your chalet, kicking back in the boma, or lazing around one of the two pools at camp; you’ll be out on a morning walk or evening game drive. Africa on Foot is the pioneer of the walking safari, and is known for its remarkable lion and predator sightings. And as for couples? It’s just the perfect place for romantics seeking wildlife moments and adventure.
