Our guide was kind and well informed, pointing out all the hidden treasures of Zulu Nyala.

We return every year to South Africa, it has spectacular scenery and the hospitality is amazing, no to mention the Safari experience!

The wildlife I saw exceeded my expectations and the Veldt is beautiful. The area we were in at Idube had a great 'Bush Vibe' with its off road tracking and drives. There was less bird life about than I expected in July.

South Africa is unlike any place I've ever been. It is beautiful in a way I never imagined. I came away with a greater appreciation for its variety of wildlife and how important it is to protect these animals in their environment.

South Africa is a beautiful, friendly, country that has something for everyone. Although I have not experienced Safaris elsewhere, South Africa seems to have all the animals anyone would want to see (penguins included!). I'm not a birder so I'm fairly unsure as to what the variety is although the lilac breasted roller is the most beautiful bird I've ever seen.

You can find very nice cities, and in a few hours on the road, you are in the middle of the wildlife.

This was our first safari but it exceeded our expectations and gave us the experience of a lifetime.

South Africa is the ultimate adventure destination. The continent is hard to get to but once there, you really don't want to leave until you've seen it all. And you cannot see it all in just two weeks so it makes you want to plan your next trip to South Africa right after you return.

Once you get away from Johannesburg your understanding of South Africa will totally change, trust me. In my mind, the images from the movie District 9 or all the propaganda from the 80s sticks in my head.

My experience is totally different and has been reshaped by the people that I met and their sincerity. I'd go back a hundred times if I could.

If someone is offerring to arrange for your passage to Thornybush, they have your best interest at heart.
