Namibia, we will be back!
5/5

We only had 8 days to spend in Namibia on our way home from Europe to Australia. Enrica from SADT helped us make the best of this limited time by proposing several options for a self-drive safari. Her advice about what to do and see was invaluable. We discussed the itinerary in many emails. When it was all settled I missed Enrica's good humoured nearly daily communications. The trip itself went very smoothly. We saw many animals in Etosha NP and at some of the lodges we stayed in. The landscapes are truly awesome! The lodges are very hospitable with great food. We were very happy with the sturdy 4x4 vehicle provided. It was delivered to us at Windhoek Airport, where we also returned it.
Margaretha was a bit apprehensive about visiting Namibia, but now she wants to go back! We already have some commitments for 2017 travel and are not sure whether we can fit a longer trip to Namibia in. It may have to wait till 2018, but we will come again.

Fantastic Safari - The Best!
5/5

Our one week trip to Kruger, N.P., South Africa was the best! The entire trip was perfectly arranged by South African Dream Tours, very smooth and no issues whatsoever. We added an extra day and made a few other minor additions and everything was just great. The lodge arranged for us near the Johannesburg Airport was great! The Blue Mango was conveniently located near the airport, but you would never know there's an international airport 15 minutes away. The food was great and the room was very comfortable and clean. We rally liked the owner Steve, what a nice genuine guy.
The next day we were dropped off in the morning at an airport bus stop and the shuttle (Ashton's) was there to pick us up right on time. The shuttle ride to our lodge was comfortable and very scenic. No issues going or coming back on Ashton's, very professional service.
We stayed at the Masodini Lodge for a week. This place was located within the Balule Game Reserve, which is a part of the Greater Kruger N.P. area. This was an absolutely perfect location for game drives in Balule and Kruger. We appreciate South African Dream Tours communicating the lodging options with us, because this worked out perfect for what we wanted. In fact, it exceeded our expectations. OK, this place was awesome! The staff was great, the food (breakfast and dinner included) was gourmet and very tasty, the lodge bar was great for viewing the watering hole, rooms clean, comfy, and nicely decorated. This was a small very intimate lodge where you felt a personal touch in everything they did. The game drives organized from the lodge were amazing! we saw the big five, the ugly five and so much more. Sightseeing, god's window, the potholes, three roundels in the local area was just amazing. Boat tour of Blyde's Canyon was great and the guide was very knowledgeable. BUT again...the lodge was just picture perfect and game drives so incredible memorable. Thank you South African Dream Tours for your advice and all the work you did to put this together. We'll certainly use you again and recommend you to our friends.

5/5

We organized the safari tour with the Hoedspruit office (South African Dream Tours), and we could not be more pleased!
Excellent offers, service, price. And more than that we appreciated the effort and willingness to customize the tour for us, attention to the details, the kindness and courtesy. 5 stars : )

I travelled in South Africa last month, and I was helped by this tour operator found on internet.
Everything was perfect, all accomodations corresponded to the description, and they were so friendly and always listened to my requests.
So I will travel again with them next time, definitely!!

perfect tour!
5/5

I had never been in south africa before, so i sent an email to south african dream tours and they organized all the journey. It was all done by emails. they asked me to select the areas i wanted to visit and the level of accomodation and then planned all the journey. i just asked few corrections and then approved the schedule. they booked international flights, hotels, lodges, some of the game drives, domestic flights, car to rent. and it was all perfect (choice of lodges, number of days spent in each area, quality of game drives). i'm sorry I couldn't go in hoedspruit, where they are based, to meet them and thank personally. it was all perfect! so thanks now to all the staff! quick, smart and professional!

First safari and first time in Africa. They suggested perfect location and very good lodge. No problems with transfers and guide. They understood what we need and they gave us a nice solution.
When we'll go back in Africa we will certainly ask them.

Trip to Soweto.

loocation nice, big room but the bathroom negative: very small and very old
restaurant disorganized and expensive for the quantity and quality

compared to other Italian tour operators proposed by southafricandream the price is very very competitive.
Quick response, quick to satisfy the demands of the customer, always available for any required changes, and always attentive to find the best solution at the best price

Very helpful and patient my Italian contacty, Enrica
