Best Vacation Ever, thanks to Go2Africa
When I started looking into booking our honeymoon to South Africa, I thought I'd be able to do it myself....I was very wrong. Not knowing anything about Africa, it's very difficult to plan a 2 week trip. I reached out to Go2Africa because a friend of mine used them and loved them...so happy I did!
Mary Keet was our contact, and she was outstanding. After speaking to her and going over with her what I'd already researched about the area, she made recommendations that were SPOT ON. Everything from the hotels at each stop, the safari, the shark dive operator, and literally every single meal - her recommendations were fabulous. She personally made all of the reservations - yes, including lunch and dinner every day - and made great recommendations for activities in-between. She even got us into some fantastic restaurants that, from what I understand, are booked several months out (Pot Luck club - amazing!).
Mary was awesome - great recommendations, very responsive, super patient - I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you so much Mary for making our honeymoon perfect!!!

Trip of a lifetime
I booked my tour with Kiah. My trip exceeded my expectations. The price was fair, the lodges AMAZING, transportation timely...the trip was flawless with zero unexpected problems or delays. I spent 8 days on safari on the Eastern Cape at three lodges, all unique. My first lodge was River Bend Lodge. The guide there was knowledgeable about all species including birds and there were many. The best experience there was the elephants. The food there was gourmet and the service outstanding. My second lodge Kariega River Lodge had a traditional feel. The guide there went out of his way to please. The food was good. The setting beautiful. My favorite of the three was Pumba River Lodge. It was a "designer" lodge with an amazing room, unbeatable. However the main reason this was my favorite was the abundance of game....I saw all of the Big 5 and more. It was also a beautiful setting. I would like to commend Kiah for a flawless and wonderful trip. She went out of her way to meet my specific needs.

Go2Africa will help you organise the holiday of a lifetime.
We travelled to South Africa with our 16 year old grandson for a special birthday treat. We discovered Go2Africa quite by accident and were so glad we did. Our dealings with Ashley at Go2Africa were excellent. All our queries were answered promptly. The overall cost of the tour that we put together was very good when compared with identical quotes from travel agents in Australia. Nothing went wrong on the whole trip - drivers for our private transfers were waiting to collect us from airports and hotels on time, (although we had to change our transfer time from Tau Game Lodge when we realised we would not get to the airport on time). The safari lodges chosen were fantastic! Pondoro had the most amazing food, Kapama Southern had the most amazing accommodation - would highly recommend the luxury family suites, and at Tau the rooms overlooked the waterhole (very close) and we had amazing sightings of wildlife. They even upgraded our grandson to his own room. All three lodges had excellent food, rooms, staff and game drives. The family room at Cascades, Sun City was probably the biggest disappointment. The room was smaller than the bathroom in our suite at Kapama! Also the water park at Sun City is pretty tame compared with water parks in Australia. However we played golf on 2 days on the Gary Player course, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The cost of a private lesson from the caddies was incredibly inexpensive and our grandson's golf improved a great deal. We would highly recommend Go2Africa to any travellers wanting to plan their South African holiday.

It was a good safari expience.
The tour was great. However I do question the drive to Kampala on Friday Oct. 3. We were stuck in traffic for over three hours. We arrived too late to do anything but have a late dinner and go to bed.

Wow!
Ramona from Go2Africa was awesome. Her recommendations, insights, and communication were right on. Our transportation and accommodations were top notch. Loved the whole experience. We had to keep pinching ourselves to make sure we weren't dreaming. We saw more than expected and our guide was wonderful. I would use go2africa again and highly recommend them.

Exactly what we wanted, knowledge, experience, confidence, compassion and above and beyond service.
So I have to admit, after traveling over 7000 miles all I could think of was "Please just let someone be there waiting for us". Not only were they waiting for us but that was the start of an absolutely awesome adventure! The service was impeccable at every camp, each one special in their own way. The Elewana Collection is a superb provider of hospitality, friendly staff , luxurious accommodation, and best of all superb locations. From the coffee plantation, to the treetops, the manor house surrounded by jacaranda trees, and the migration camp in the Northern Serengeti all exceeded our expectations. Our guides were a wealth of information, and we appreciated their passion for their country and the gifts that nature has bestowed upon Tanzania.. a special shout out to Moses and his first Pangolin. Thank you Lauren, it was a pleasure working with you and I would certainly use Go2Africa again. Haven't been to Botswana yet!

Beyond our wildest dreams!
This was our very first trip to Africa and though I have been looking at various tour companies and options for the last few years I decided to narrow it down to one Company that can incorporate a Gorilla trekking to our trip. There are a lot out there but I am happy to have picked Go2Africa.com. Our trip went very smoothly, with no glitch at all. The owner of Africa Beyond Borders even paid us a personal visit at our lodge in Entebbe and gave us some tips - it was a nice touch! We worked with Emma Harrop who did an outstanding job. The only thing I would have changed is extend our game drives another day or 2 because it was just so fabulous!
