Great service - super easy booking
5/5

Wendy Mulder was a great booking agent - very helpful and efficient. She did try book a specific cabin for us but on arrival we were put into another cabin so that was a bit disappointing but assuming the mess up was made by cape vidal?

Midmar Dam
5/5

The chalets may be basic but they are comfortable and offer a great view of the dam. Close enough to Howick to get supplies and close enough to Nottingham Rd to visit a few of the local restaurants and breweries.
Great value for money! The chalet was also very clean.

A good mid-range safari experience
4/5

Overall, the safari was good and services were well provided. Food and accommodation were good, as expected. People (guides, cooks etc.) were nice. The only thing that was maybe less easy was the preparation and the communication before the safari. Some informations were lacking or could have been provided much more in advance.

Cape Vidal Park
4/5

Cape Vidal is an amazing destination. The place is beautiful. The staff at the park were friendly and helpful. The only (Constructive ) criticism that I have, is that log cabin no. 3 is in bad need of repair, we had to be moved to another cabin for the next night, as it leaked like a sieve. The other cabin (no. 10) was in better shape, but the water in the toilet had to be switched on and off at the tap as it ran continuously. In general the state of repair is not good, and a sharper eye is needed in management. Taking all that into consideration, it was still a great place to stay!!

Everything we dreamed of came true
5/5

When planning your first safari, you tend to set your personal expectations high! Wanting to see the big five, experiance amazing sights etc. Really, you shouldn't do that, as you are dealing with nature and that has a tendency to be conservative and immidiate to its own needs and not ours.

Our agent Clive, explained with clarity, all that we needed and more and showed great professionalism and knowledge in getting our group exactly what we wanted. This guy is simply incredible at what he does. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Clive managed our expectations and if anything under promised and certainly over delevered.

However, I can honestly say, that with this trip, all our expectations were exceeded. The lodges were incredible and as for the brilliance of the Guides and scouts, they made this safari the trip of a lifetime.

perfect bookings!
5/5

Once again perfect organized! At all places we wanted to visit the perfect accomodation was suggested and we had no problems with any oft the bookings. We had a great time, however, the trip (again) was much too short, means, we are planning the next trip and we'll do it with you again! Many thanks and kindest regards, Klaus

Booking our trip was hassle free and consideration was given to our specific needs.
4/5

We stayed at The Lodge in Thendele in Royal Natal National Park. Loved the setting, which is stunningly beautiful and the gardens and verges well maintained. Road has quite a few potholes leading up to the Thendele car park. The fact that the Lodge was big, spacious, and was very eco friendly with the grass growing on the roof was really lovely. Sipho, our cook was very good, pleasant and helpful in every way. Only complaint was the carpets badly need cleaning or replacing, very badly stained. The bathrooms need renovating, there is only one shower in one bathroom, the rest have baths, and although clean on the surface the bathrooms are old and not water conservation friendly...
