Professional booking agent with good communications with clients.
Loved our Safari staying at Hamiltons and Hoyo Hoyo lodges and then on to Cape Town. All organised and carried out professionally. Top quality service and matching game drives. Could not be faulted!!!!
Quality service and very detailed.
Vanessa was very helpful in planning our trip and providing us good guidance- before-during-after the trip. Every facility/safari is of great quality. Excellent tour operator!

Gateway to wonderment
I had identified the lodge that I wanted to stay at and asked Greatest Africa to make the necessary arrangements for our special trip. They were more than happy to do so even though the lodge was not in their portfolio. Everything was seamless.

Do not hesitate to book with Greatest Africa!
This is our 2nd time we booked with Greatest Africa. Once again we presented ambitious wants for our vacation. Excellent communication, Vanessa of Greatest Africa put an itinerary together with all details checked off from flights, transfers, safari camps spanning from Cape Town, Botswana, onto Zambezi Queen & Victoria Falls. Fantastic adventure!!

Amazing Safari Experience - 9 nights / 10 days in 3 lodges around Kruger (South Africa)
I was very satisfied by the level of service provided by Greatest Africa in helping me finding the right lodges to meet my expectations. The 3 were at the same time very different, providing diversity in the experiences and safaris offered but still very luxurious with amazing and caring staffs.
All internal flights and transfers had been booked in advance.
Throughout my trip, everything went very smoothly and I did not have to worry about a thing. All transfers arrived on time (usually even in advance in case I wanted to leave earlier) and the chauffeurs from the company Greatest Africa had chosen were all very friendly and helpful (going out of their way to make me happy).
Overall the standard of the trip was very good and I am perfectly satisfied with the experience. Definitely worth my money and would recommend it.

The perfect "bucket list" trip ever.
We had always wanted to experience South Africa and do "The Big 5" game park stay. We looked at booking locally from Australian companies but they all seemed so expencive and didntgive us the experience we wanted in a small personal tour without breaking the bank. During my searches of the internet i discovered Greatest Africa, a local SA company specialising in tailor made trips.
Vanessa was amazing from start to finish, some 3 years ago i had my 3rd throat cancer surgery leaving me unable to eat any food via my mouth and all meals need to be pureed to a fine liquid somi can tube feed via a PEG.
Vanessa was able to understand my needs and after knowing what type of high powered blender was needed she was able to book us into an amazin hotel in Capetown and 2 x 5 star game lodges with the correct blender to make all my meals.
My wife said it was her best holiday ever, the game lodges were perfect, the food amazing and the total experience and game drives ons to remember forever.
Thankyouever so much for our mazing holiday and for your personal and profestional service.
Highly recomended to all, not just us "Tubies"

Safari, Vic Falls and Cape Town - Trip of a lifetime
From first contact with Vanessa we had excellent service and she was extremely patient as we tweaked the itinerary a number of times and asked numerous questions. The choice of venues was excellent - perfect for our needs. In particular Motswari Game Reserve was outstanding with so many memorable experiences and 'encounters' with the big 5 and so much more. All the transfers were seamless and everything operated like clockwork - completely hassle and stress free. We would unreservedly recommend Greatest Africa and Vanessa who put together such a brilliant itinerary for us.

Makweti experience was exceptional in every aspect
Working with Greatest Africa remotely from Australia was a seamless, hassle free process and we were a party of 9. In-country travel and connections in RSA were trouble free and the game park recommendations "spot on". The Makweti experience of 4 nights was a perfect friendly and luxurious stay; we were treated to wonderful morning and dusk safaris conducted by our exceptional guide - Joseph who demonstrated phenomenal knowledge of both fauna and flora. Joseph displayed patience and determination to ensure we saw the full array of unique African wildlife during our stay - and were not disappointed in any way.
Thank you Greatest Africa for an experience of a lifetime.
