Thiam Travels is the perfect guide for multi-generational families!
Thiam Travels was an exceptional tour operator and crafted an unforgettable South African journey for a group of 11 people ages 11-81! We hit all of the highlights, Capetown area for several days, winelands, intrastate flights to/from the Garden Route, and a malaria-free luxury safari.
Thiam was also very meticulous and able to easily change itineraries when needed because of the weather, (including the tablecloth on Table Mountain) or when we expressed interest to visit a garden.
I would highly recommend Thiam Travels for an expertly crafted experience in South Africa to accommodate any age group.

Exceptional Experience with a Luxury Twist
We couldn’t wish for a better safari experience - High Neck were very reliable, flexible and accommodating.
Even though we came during the low season, our amazing guide Edward was able to show us all the animals we wanted to see and really went extra mile to show us around.
The definite highlight of the trip was also the choice of accommodations that High Neck did for us - we got a chance to stay in incredible lodges in all the parks and even in the famous Four Seasons Serengeti.
Another important thing to mark is the absence of touristic traps - we were not taken to any fake souvenir shops, irrelevant museums or staged shows. Our main goal was to focus on spotting animals and our guide did everything to maximize our time in the parks.
Overall, just an amazing experience - from the most comfortable car (even in comparison to fellow safari travelers in the park) to local insight from the guide and, of course, seeing all the Big 5!
Thank you!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience
We saw all the animals, including leopard and rhinos, that are very hard to spot. Our guide was fantastic — knowledgeable and passionate, no matter how much driving there was or complex the route our guide made sure we saw every animal! — and the lodges were comfortable and beautifully located. Every day was a new adventure, with stunning landscapes and incredible wildlife. I highly recommend this agency and our guide Edward, if you want want to be guided by people that really care and who want to give you the absolute best experience. You can really see they care! Can't thank them enough. Hope to be back soon

Friendly, reliable and good value.
The trip was outstanding! Our guide Eli was excellent, he was friendly, knowledgeable and spoke very good English. The trip covered 3 national parks and was a mix of camping and lodges, we had 3 great meals a day including hot lunch and dinner prepared by the chef. The tour was run exceptionally well, it was well organised and communication was excellent. We saw many amazing views of animals including over 30 lions in total, some cheetahs, elephants, giraffes and many more. I would highly recommend Cubs and Eli to anyone, the price is very competitive and if you don't fancy the camping you can ask for a more premium accommodation.

Best experience ever
Francis is the number one! He has a great attitude and went above and beyond to show us all the animals. He was also very helpful to all the other guides. I’d definitely choose him again for other safaris. Yo!

Although I am not very good at English, I was able to enjoy the tour thanks to the guide's polite manner. I was also able to see the lions up close.

Try it! They will organize you a great adventure!
I did a full day tour in Kruger with our driver and spotter Stanley. I just can recommend him. He provided a good atmosphere and showed us lots of animals in just one drive. Except a rhino we saw 4 of the big five!
Moreover he is a skilled and safety driver and I always felt comfortable. I hope he is my driver on one of my next drives.
Be blessed!

Incredibly flexible. Nothing was too much trouble.
Our 7 day tour was probably a little different to the norm. Our group of UK and Kenyan friends had specific requirements taking in game parks as well as visits and stays with relatives. Nothing was too much trouble for our great driver/guide on our tour from Nairobi to Naivasha and Nakuru. The Landcruiser was top class and comfortable with drinks cooler and charging points. We would definitely use them again when returning to Kenya.
