Wonderful trip

Our trip was very exciting well planned and extremely well directed . Our toir guide, Duane was the best tour guide we have ever had. He knew so much about So. Africa and you could tell he loved his country. He took excellent care of the group and I do believe he truly loved being with us. I don't think we would been able to to see anymore then we did. It was wonderful.

Absolutely best tour I've been on!

Had a wonderful small group. Saw the Big 5 & many, many more animals. Got some great shots, too many MB to post. And the TD, Duane, was the best I've ever had: so full of history, organized and so helpful in our individual wants and needs. The microlight & helicopter flights over Victoria Falls should be mandatory! My only disappointment was not getting to ride an African elephant. One needs to make reservations way before the Knysna excursion. There just are not enough adjectives to describe this exciting trip through this beautiful, mountainous country.

My First Adventure

I am a senior citizen who had never traveled out of the United States before this trip. It was way out of my comfort zone for a first overseas trip because of the very long flight from Alaska to Johannesburg. However, my friends convinced me that I should go when the opportunity presented itself. I had a fabulous time, and the trip exceeded my expectations. We had a wonderful overview of South Africa, saw lots of animals, birds and other wildlife. Our tour director was excellent, really knew his country and made the whole experience come alive.

South Africa Discovery

A tour that was not a vacation, on the go all the time, either at airports or loading unloading the bus. Incredible time consuming, should cut it down, show less but in more details at a slower pace. You can imagine how long to takes to load and unload 29 people, 1/2 of the vacations is wasted. You followed the advertised itinerary, but most people don't read it very carefully. When you mention Johanessburg 3 times, people expect to see more than the airport. Saw nothing in Swaziland except a native market. The bus parked there for 3 hours. Good overview of the nature, but not of Africa.

Trip of a lifetime

We had a great time on this trip - it was more physically challenging than expected - due mostly to the movement of luggage thru 2 in-country flights. However, we could not have seen/done as much without those flights you just need to know it and plan for it. Hotels and food were good to very good, out guide was very knowledgeable and did a great job given that he was dealing with 29 people with different ideas of what they wanted from the trip. The extension to Victoria falls should not be missed. Recommend this trip to anyone looking for a unique experience. The safari's were outstanding!

African Tour

Interesting tour at fast space, overly fast. Saw a lot, but missed most of the cities, although the tour was in accordance with brochure, still would have liked to see more, i.e Johannesburg. Saw nothing in Swaziland, would be interesting to stop in Mobane rather than spend 4 hours at a swap meet.

It Just Kept Getting Better!

Our trip to South Africa was amazing!!! We loved all of the game drives, with each of them being different in nature and we saw everything that we had hoped for, except a leopard. The hotels and food were excellent! The scenery was breathtaking! Our guide, Frank, was so knowlegable, fun and accommodating. As the tour progressed, we commented that "it just keeps getting better"! The extension to the Victoria Falls was incredible and it was a great way to begin the trip!
