A beautiful country with friendly people and good value for money

We had a 3 week family stay centred at Cape Town. We had 5 nights at the V&A waterfront which is VERY safe as gated and guarded. There’s plenty of restaurants and other places to eat.
From the we made use of the hop on / off bus tour, visiting Table Mountain, Signal Hill, the night / weekend market and the city centre. We also took a trip to the Franschhock wine region and utilised the tram.
We had a 5 day garden route which was excellent and included a game drive, a Penguin colony and ostrich farm.
We arrived back in Cape Town and stayed in Green Point for 7 days and used that as a base to explore further afield, including; Vape Point, Camps Bay, Groot Constantia, Robben Island and Kirstenbosch.
Our last 3 nights were spent in Stellenbosch which is very beautiful and has many many vineyards to explore.

We had an amazing couple of days in Kruger National Park which was one of many highlights of our incredible 10 days in South Africa. Great food, drink, climate, scenery, hospitality and people.

An amazing country with so much to see and do.

The tour I went on was fantastic, from the rooms we stayed in, to the safari guide that explained the wildlife in Kruger, to the breathtaking panoramic view from the tops of the hills and mountains...Safari Bookings lives up to its reputation, and I would highly recommend anyone who wants to go on a wildlife Safari in Africa to use Safari bookings to plan your trip.

Shocking, in that this level of beauty should be more well-known to the world

My first time to Africa, South or otherwise, and I was honestly stunned about the enormous beauty of the place. The Safari was top-notch - the only regret being that i could not tip the driver since i didn’t get to an ATM in time. He didn’t demand anything, but i felt very bad not giving anything since his performance was outstanding. He had not only in-depth knowledge about everything going on in the park, but also very good humor and an almost eerie talent for languages - he could say wild boar in both Chinese and Hebrew, two languages I happen to speak well - and was really a fun person to spend an afternoon with.

There were a couple of organizational hiccups in the beginning, but the agency sorted them out most satisfactory. In case your Yekke or German like me: Relax. In my two weeks in SA things consistently turned out to be much different than planned for, but always well. Just go with the flow!

Mont Eco Game Reserve Safari

The place exceeded our expectations by far and so did the service and the food. The team was very friendly and helpful.

The Safari tours were wonderful. Our guide was very very knowledgeable. We have seen the Big 5 and much more.

We all heartedly recommend the place and will go back in the coming years.

Where fantasy becomes reality!

A visit to South Africa is a a wonderful way to windup a Cruise. It has adventure, scenery, history and of course wildlife.
The welcome is genuine and hospitality reasonably priced.

A very pleasant place.

My experience in South Africa was fantastic, from the booking with Viva Safari, the flights, to our stay at Tremisana Lodge. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Patrícia Landau, who was incredibly helpful and answered all our questions about the lodge and everything the safari had to offer. I would also like to express my gratitude to the entire Tremisana Safari team. We were warmly welcomed, and everyone went above and beyond to make our safari unforgettable. We were able to see all the Big 5, and despite the intense heat, the experience was truly incredible!
