Cedarberg Africa helped us plan a honeymoon beyond our wildest dreams!
5/5

When my then-fiance said I could pick our honeymoon destination, I knew we had to visit the country at the very top of my bucket list - South Africa. I first reached out to two travel agencies close to home, and asked them to put together an itinerary based on our budget. I was worried because we were wanting to travel during the peak season, but it was still incredibly disappointing when they both came back and told me we could only afford an week-long trip, assuming we stayed in very low budget accommodations. Just when I was about to give up hope, my mom found a post on a local neighborhood bulletin from someone saying they'd just gone on the most outstanding African vacation, and they wanted to recommend their travel agent: Sonja Brand at Cedarberg Africa. I reached out to her, my last hope, and crossed my fingers...

Long story short: Cedarberg Africa helped us plan a honeymoon beyond our wildest dreams! We hopped all around the country for 14 nights, and each property was stunning, luxurious, and staffed with the most wonderful people who truly made us feel spoiled each and every day. My husband and I agree this was the best vacation we've ever taken (and I consider myself a relatively well-traveled individual), and we cannot wait to plan our next South African adventure down the road, with the help of Cedarberg Africa, of course!

Very knowledgeable, helpful and speedy response.
5/5

The information I was given by Cederberg Africa was very informative and the places they recommended were fantastic. Sanctuary Baines and Sanctuary Chief Camps were fantastic, from the location, accommodation to the staff.

Fantastic! So easy to work with. Answered every question and had us absolutely prepared for our trip
5/5

We had the trip of a lifetime! Thank you so much to Milandi and everyone; guide, camp employees, and everyone we encountered for their professionalism, their genuine concern for our needs and for their desire to make everything perfect! Our accommodations were excellent, food was wonderful.
We especially loved the Kati Kati Camp on the Serengeti. We were there two nights and would plan on three nights if we went again.

Be prepared for dusty roads and bring an adequate supply of electrical converters. :) My wife wished she had had a scarf for her hair. :)

Thank you, thank you for everything Cedarberg Africa, Five stars all the way!

Unforgettable family adventure through Cape Town and the Sabi Sand Savanna Private Game Reserve
5/5

Our trip to South Africa was flawless and the vacation of a lifetime! Cedarberg African Travel was a delight to work with each step of the way as they initially listened to our wishes and then designed a holiday around our active family. Milandi and the Cedarberg team not only planned each detail but also gave us helpful tips in advance to help us prepare for our holiday. Once in SA, there was never a need to contact Cedarberg because each day's activities went off without a hitch. We started with the Cape peninsula tour, then the hike up Table Mountain followed by the Cape wine area. We then flew to the Savanna private game reserve for an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend Cedarberg and will certainly be passing their name on to our friends. While the entire holiday was memorable, our favorite has to be the safari at Savanna. The game drives with Neil and Julius are forever in our memory and will stay a part of our dreams. The encounters with the leopards, lions, elephants and all the animals changed how we see the world and our responsibility to care for our environment. The accommodation, meals and service at Savanna was first class. The small number of guests allowed for a friendly and family-like quality. Also, the hike with Jeremy of AWOL tours was superb. He gave us a choice of hikes but challenged us to do the more difficult hike with some "scrambling" up the rocks. He was there at every turn to compliment, encourage or coax us up the mountain. He even prepared a lactose-free lunch for my husband. The weather was outstanding and Jeremy even spotted a caracal (which must be rare from the excitement on his face). The order of the trip, starting in Cape Town and ending on safari, was perfect as it took us a day or so to wrap our heads around being in Africa. We happily endorse Cedarberg Travel and will be recommending them to all our friends.

Seamless
5/5

We all had an excellent time and wished we could have stayed much longer. There were no problems at all except for the children fighting over which beautiful bed to sleep in. I will not hesitate to recommend Cedarberg.

All the accommodation and activities exceeded our expectations. Would have liked to have spent more time at the various accommodations but we were too busy!!

We enjoyed our stay at Muchenje in Botswana the most. An extra couple of days here would have been blissful.

We had seamless holiday. Great advice and great service.

Flawless service provided for an amazing trip
5/5

I found this company through a search engine- wanted a group based in South Africa. From the first email the agent ( Milandi) and I were on the same wavelength. Our safari was with Savanna Private Game Reserve ( a not for profit outfit) and it exceeded our expectation- extraordinary hosts/guides/trackers/ staff- wonderful food in a beautiful setting and fabulous accommodation with every little touch. Unusual game sightings- able to go off road made a big difference
My experience with Cederberg was flawless- all drivers were prompt and knowledgeable- all documents given in a timely manner- a pleasure working with this company
