We had a great time in SA, most of which we spent in Capetown. The people are great, the food is good and the possibilities are endless. For our trip to the Kruger national park we went for an all inclusive tour with Viva safaris and had the most amazing time. Accomodations and food were good, the tour was well organized and the guides were knowledgeable, fun and incredible at spotting animals. Would recommend 10/10.

Breathtaking Nature

The Kruger national park is like no other place in the world. Its different watching wildlife animals vs animals in a zoo. Barney from Wildlife Safaris did a really good job bringing us around and spotting the animals to direct our attention in their way. I still don't know how he does it so well, but he was a park ranger before so I am sure that helps. Oddly, the period I went 26-31 Dec had a lot of rain so I am sure there would have been more animals to spot if not for the unpredictable weather.

A vibrant nexus where the warmth of the welcome is only eclipsed by the grandeur of the landscape.

Walking on table top mountain drinking in stunning views, followed by swimming in two oceans and watching penguins and drinking wine in incredible landscapes. All things we did as well as enjoying incredible food and the warmth of the welcomes in Cape Town.
Up country we were blown any by the glory of Victoria falls and enjoyed knowledgeable tour guides on safari.

First of all, the guys from the agency are veey nice and very responsive. We had a small issue for coming back from Kruger due to X-Mas and they managed to find a solution in due time.
As for the accomodation, it was just perfect. The managers there were very welcoming and offered all their support for a great safari experience.
Kruger needs no more description since I think that it is one of the greatest national parks in SA. I was lucky to see all the big 5 and much more.

It's been my second time in South Africa and I'm sure it won't be the last!
This country has a vibrant culture. I love everything about SA: the people are super friendly, the food is delicious, the places are wonderful and so on. I highly recommend a visit to everyone who is looking for some adventure and a unique experience. This country has a lot to offer!
My experience on the safari will be unforgettable. Unfortunately I didn't get to see the lions, but this won't make my experience less memorable - I guess this is my excuse to come back again :)
The guides were doing their best to give us the best moments with a lot to teach and share. They were all very punctual and nice.
I did the one-day-tour in the Kruger and two days in the Greater Kruger. Next time I'll choose more days in the Kruger , the park is huge and deserves more attention.
My accommodation couldn't have been better. I spent four nights at the African
Read more Rock Lodge and they nailed it!!! They were awesome!
Thanks a lot Shinzelle for the great job! And Safari bookings for helping us find the best options.

We had the most amazing time visiting South Africa. We used Safari Booking to book our Kruger Safari and it was the highlight of our whole visit. We did a 2 night, 3 day trip with 4 game drives at sunrise and sunset. We saw the big 5 almost twice and the guides were fantastic. The place was beautiful and we had the most wonderful time speaking to people and getting to know the different places.
