Everything Lucia said was true I didn't have to worry about a thing once I booked it and got there
I went to three different or two different lodges they were both excellent I wouldn't rated one of them the moribusa is a five star and shcikadoo as a three and a half star they both had different things that were better for Safaris and we went for an all-day Tour on the cougar National Park and that went well she did book the rest of the trip through Cape Town and Victoria Falls and everything went as expected I would rate it a 10

Professional, organized, welcoming, friendly
This is the 2nd time that I traveled with Go Touch Down and I would do it again and again. They crafted a different experience for me and I enjoyed every minute of it. All of the guides were always knowledgeable, professional and a joy to be around. Capetown is an amazing city from the mountains, the ocean and the farmland all in one city, its somewhere everyone should experience at least 1x in life and hopefully again and again.
very attentive to needs and knowledgeable about all aspects
Our signature tour was nothing short of a trip of a lifetime. Accommodations were excellent and food was too. All tour drivers and guides were very knowledgeable and very considerate to all our needs.
Go Touch Down was very easy to contact during our tour to sort out any problems or questions encountered along the way.
The highlight was definitely the Safari where we were able to get an up close view of all the animals. Traveling as two older single women we never felt confused, threatened or unsafe with anything on the tour.

Our accommodations and tour guides we very knowledgeable.
Our entire trip to Johannesburg, Royal Morubisi Safari Reserve and Capetown was wonderful.
The accommodations, tours and activities gave us a clear image of the history and beauty of South Africa.
We would very much recommend this tour by Go Touchdown.

GoTouchdown Safari tour was a true awe-inspiring experience
Thank you Go Touchdown Tours! What a trip!
For starters, our driver Thabo was efficient, knowledgeable and a genuine character. We enjoyed his commentary as we drove from JoBerg to Royal Morubisi and later to Tshukudu and on. He stayed with us for transportation throughout, including airport trips,and he certainly is an asset to the company.
At Royal Morobisi in Kaingo Game Preserve, we were greeted by Carmen and staff and were assigned lodging in the Research Center compound. Rooms were wonderful although sufficient hot water for washing/showering was a bit of a challenge. Our chef, bartender, manager, maid service, and every staff member we interacted with were just wonderful. Every member of staff seemed so happy and just couldn't do enough for us. We felt very spoiled. Cuisine was absolutely superb. When one of our party inquired about a specific liquor, the staff went out and secured it for the next day. As I said; we were treated like royalty. Our guide/tracker, Izzie, was a joy. Although quite young compared to our group, she had a charming wit and interacted with us very well. Izzie managed to guide us to all of the Big Five as well as manage "SunDowner" activity efficiently. We felt very safe with her when out on our game drives.
At Tshukudu Game Lodge, we were cheerfully greeted by staff and assigned our bungalows before heading out on our first game drive led by our tracker/guide Aubrey. Almost immediately, Aubrey had us on the track of a pair of Cheetahs. Throughout our several drives, Aubrey displayed an incredible depth of knowledge of the environment including the animals, birds, plants and trees. Too many interesting facts to list.He managed to arrange "SunDowners" at some gorgeous spots. We enjoyed being with him very much. In Tshukudu, we managed to see four of the Big Five with only a leopard eluding us. The trip to the Endangered Species Center was enjoyable. More facts about the plight of some of Africa's endangered animals. We also enjoyed the day in Kruger although it was much more like traveling through Yellowstone Park with all the additional vehicles and tourists around us. It just showed us, again, how spoiled we were at Tshukudu.Staff at Tshukudu were all charming and made us feel very welcome. One particular server, Dolly, was just a delight; always smiling and our maid, Edna, took excellent care of us. With all the plans for construction, we hope you don't give up the Boma dining experience as it was just magical to eat outside under those majestic trees with a firepit to create a serene mood. I would say the cuisine at Tshukudu was delicious and we certainly had enough although not quite as good as our Royal Morobisi experience.
All in all, we had an absolutely fantastic time on this Safari. Many memories of a beautiful part of the natural world and some very nice people who call that area home. If anyone we know is planning a trip to South Africa, we will most certainly send them your way. Thank you all for a phenomenal experience!

Outstanding trip of a lifetime!
We have just returned from what I would describe as a trip of a lifetime arranged by GO Touchdown Tours to South Africa. We spent 5 days in Cape Town followed by 5 days on Safari in the Kiango Game Reserve, and last 3 days in Victoria Falls.
We were met at each location as we stepped off our planes by guides of Go Touchdown and were looked after by each one in exemplary fashion at each location. The Guides, the accommodations, the food, and the service were top notch. Saw all of the top attractions in Cape Town, got to experience the Big 5 on our game drives in Kiango, and witnessed up close the Smoke that Thunders at Victoria Falls, one of the 7 wonders of the world.
Everything we could have imagined was taken care of and all arrangements came off without a hitch!
Go Touchdown supplied us with memories that will last a lifetime and we are so thankful we chose them to put this trip together for us. Just simply could not have been better! Highly recommend if you are looking to visit Southern Africa you look to Go Touchdown to set if up for you. I cannot imagine another firm doing a better job, and I guarantee you will be glad you did!
