Customized plans for individual choices
Have had 3 South African trips with Rhino Africa. Used the same agent (S. Myburgh) each time. Every trip thoughtfully planned to my requests. Able to secure requested ranger and tracker pair. Notified when exchange rates were favorable to make final payment. Questions/requests quickly attended to via email. CC payment on line. This is a superb company.

Wonderful experience
Simply stated, Rhino Africa did a wonderful job coordinating my two week vacation to South Africa with my daughter.
Our consultant, Glen, was very responsive and friendly. We exchanged countless emails and he always took the time to answer all my questions and provide in-depth information.
I compared several different online travel companies, but Rhino Africa’s price could not be beat.
I found that everything was well organized and ran smoothly. Our lodging, excursions, and transportation were coordinated perfectly. We stayed at three different places (and traveled by both car and plane from one location to the next).
We were extremely happy with our Cape Town hotel and both lodges that were recommended. I would plan another trip with Rhino Africa in a heartbeat and would highly suggest them to any other traveler.

Excellent planning and service for our three-generation family safari
Rhino Africa did an excellent job planning our three-generation family trip to Zimbabwe. Our group of six included a grandparent, adult family members, and two children, and the arrangements throughout the trip were smooth and very well coordinated.
Our travel consultant, Des Saayman, recommended excellent lodges. We stayed at Somalisa Acacia in Hwange National Park and Victoria Falls River Lodge, and both proved to be outstanding choices for our family.
Des also arranged several memorable experiences during our stay at Victoria Falls, including a helicopter tour of the Falls and coffee on Stanley’s Terrace at the historic Victoria Falls Hotel. She also ensured seamless transportation between Victoria Falls River Lodge and these activities, allowing our family to enjoy each experience without having to worry about the logistics.
I was particularly impressed by Des’s responsiveness and personal attention. When I had a question about a charter flight and contacted her outside normal office hours via WhatsApp, she responded promptly that same evening. She also suggested a VIP Meet and Assist service at Cape Town International Airport, where we transited on our way home from Victoria Falls. This greatly reduced the stress and confusion of navigating a busy airport and saved us about 30 minutes of waiting in line. That level of service was very reassuring, particularly when traveling with a family group and dealing with transportation arrangements in remote safari destinations.
From selecting excellent lodges and arranging special experiences to coordinating transportation for all six of us, Des and Rhino Africa handled the details extremely well. Their careful planning and personal service contributed greatly to a memorable family trip, and I would enthusiastically recommend Rhino Africa to anyone planning a safari in Southern Africa.
