Can’t wait to see you again

I don’t even know where to begin. Our trip to South Africa was life-changing. We can’t wait to go back as we never wanted to leave. This was the trip of a lifetime for us. We made several great new friends, from several different countries, including South Africa. Our safari guides were the best and our guide at CapeTown and Winelands was also the best I have no complaints at all.

Perfect destination very lucky with the weather. Hosts so kind and accommodating.
I’m a single mom traveling with 2 daughters (12&13) I felt safe and welcome. I was able to freely enjoy and discover South Africa.

The beauty of seeing animals in the wild was amazing.
Overall rating
5/5

The bush drives was made special by the guides. They try hard to find the animals and get into best place for photo ops. The animals were very visible and roaming freely throughout the reserve. The evening meal in the boma with open pit bbq, was wonderful, made even more authentic with the presence of four hyenas just outside the perimeter lurking around for food scraps. South Africa is enchanting with beautiful views. The sunsets are colorful and memorable. A full moon in the African bush is beyond words. However, the best part of South Africa is the people…friendly, engaging and welcoming. This was a trip that I will always treasure.

Great experience
Overall rating
5/5

We had the most amazing time at the Safari - and the crew has been nothing but accommodating and flexible. Travelling with 3 kids we had to change the duration shortly before the arrival, all was done without any extra cost or problems.
The crew was fun, interested and engaging, the sights unforgettable and the other travellers we have met friendly!
The home cooked food was delicious - and the lodges brilliant!

South Africa is interesting!!!
Overall rating
4/5

I liked South Africa. Arrived on October 6th stayed in Johanesburg for two days and October 8 went by car to Haziview city ( about 15 km farway the Kruger Park. The accomodation and foods were ok. I had nice time there. I stay for 3 days and visited Kruger Park 3 times. My experience was good, but my expectation was to see more animals. The Lion and leopard I sow just one and far away. The hippopotamus was impossible to see because they were underwater. I could to see girafas, zebras, bufalo, rinoceronte, monkey, empala. … The Safari was safe and drivers good. I had short and simple options in my trip. The price was good and all happened as planned.
The trip from Johanesburg to Haziwiew was safe. The road and drivers as well.
If you have ideia to go to Safari I recommend.
The meal is good. The weather in October is hot and dry most the time. Some time rains.
Wild life is interesting!!!

We visited Cape Town and Aquilla Game Reserve, we loved it. The people were super friendly, the food was great, the weather was perfect and the wildlife was amazing. We found going out to be cheap and the cuisine was just fabulous. We are already planning a return trip for next year, and we certainly would recommend it to anyone considering going.
