What a great trip and great tour

It was well organized and the guides were great. Some of the travel days were a little long. The guides, hotel, and the experience at the south end of the park were the best part.

**Exceptional South African Adventure with Cardi, Ricardo, and Patrick** Our recent journey through South Africa was truly unforgettable, and much of that is thanks to the incredible team guiding us: Cardi, Ricardo, and Patrick. **Cardi**, our tour guide, was an absolute geml. Her deep knowledge of South African history, culture, and wildlife made each day a fascinating adventure. She had a wonderful way of bringing stories to life, connecting us with the essence of the places we visited. Cardi was always attentive to our needs, ensuring we were comfortable, engaged, safe, and having the time of our lives. Her passion for her work is truly contagious, and she made sure that every moment of our trip was both educational and fun. **Ricardo**, camp chef that complemented Cardi perfectly. His enthusiasm and energy added an extra layer of excitement to our journey. Ricardo's insights into local traditions and his ability to navigate us through the most scenic routes made every excursion special. His friendly demeanor and readiness to answer any question—no matter how small—made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. Not to mention the meals he prepared were fantastic!! **Patrick**, our bus driver, was exceptional as well. Navigating the roads of South Africa is no small feat, but Patrick did so with the utmost skill and professionalism. We always felt safe and at ease in his capable hands. Patrick was also incredibly friendly and approachable, often sharing his own stories and local knowledge, which added another dimension to our experience. His punctuality and reliability ensured that our trip ran smoothly from start to finish.. Cardi, Ricardo, and Patrick made our South Africa safari adventure truly extraordinary. Their dedication, expertise, and warm personalities transformed our trip into a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We couldn't have asked for a better team to guide us through this beautiful country. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed the trip. The guides were all very nice and were able to tell us lots of facts. We only awarded 4 stars because the organization on site was not perfect. For example, we had to contact the local agency several times for the airport transfer as the pick-up time was not clear. Unfortunately, the tour operator did not allow us to visit Johannesburg due to the security situation. The rest of the trip went very well, the trip to Kruger National Park was very interesting, the stay in the lodge was very pleasant, getting up early for the excursions was tedious, but then it paid off. The excursions in Cape Town were just as interesting.

The Jozi to Cape tour was awesome. There was so much packed into 15 days it was incredible. Handre made sure everyone had a great experience, explaining about the terrain, animals, history and local people.

This tour is amazing! You get to see SO much of South Africa- from mountains to coastline, historical sites, etc. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see and learn as much as possible about South Africa. I am 26, and my Mom is 54. We went on the tour together and had the time of our lives. There are varied activities depending on what you feel like doing certain days, the accommodation was great, and our guide Handre was incredible. It is great too that this is a small group tour (you are NOT stuck on a bus with 50 people being herded around). I felt like a traveller, not just a tourist.

The team managed an extensive tour itinerary really well. They were prompt, attentive and responded to our requests at all times. We had a party of 7 and many details in the itinerary including flights, special needs like wheelchairs, safari rides, guided tours, sea cruises, etc. The team executed everything well! The local guides in particular were wonderful. For the future, I would recommend 2 improvements - 1. make the duration longer by a couple of days. The itinerary was packed with activities each day and a 1or 2-day downtime would have been good. 2. The weather in Cape Town was terrible. It rains a lot in winter and is a known issue. We should have planned ahead for it.

Great itinerary, would have added Soweto as part of the standard to make the experience complete. CapeTown guide/driver was very pleasant, knowledgeable, prompt, and made us feel safe.

The safaris on day one and two were excellent however I would say a few things are not as the itinerary suggests. The drive from johanessburg is not 4 hours, but more like 6-7 hours. Also, day 4 there is no time for a morning safari so this was incorrect too

I do not recommend booking through Across Africa Tours. The communication and organisation was woeful from day one. Firstly, the messages through TourRadar were painful. Next, the timing of our first days activities was incorrect so we missed out on the lunch and afternoon game drive, they told us they would pick us up at 8:45am and be there in time. Rather, we were woken up at 6:30am and told they were ready to go already. We left at 8:45am the original time but didn’t arrive to the reserve until 4pm. So clearly, the timing of the drive is incorrect. They also organised our final transfer but never gave us a voucher for us to claim it, therefore we were left at the airport to arrange our own transport to the hotel. I can not fault the service from Thornhill Safari Lodge, Shearwater Falls Hotel or our lovely guides Hilmar and Kim. We had amazing guides on the safaris as well. They were all very professional and lovely and we had wonderful food and rooms. But I recommend booking these places separately yourself or with another tour company!

Every host/guide was knowledgeable, friendly and prompt.

The overall experience was excellent. Our tour guide in Johannesburg (Phineas) was particularly knowledgeable and accommodating. He really went all out for us.

Embarking on the luxurious journey through Cape Town, Kruger National Park, and Victoria Falls with Little Roz Tours was an unparalleled experience that far exceeded our expectations. From the onset, the meticulous attention to detail and personalized service provided by Bronah, the owner, set the tone for a truly bespoke adventure. Bronah remained personally engaged throughout, ensuring our needs were met. We were fortunate to have a dedicated tour guide, whose expertise and gracious demeanor enriched our experience immeasurably. While the beauty of Cape Town & the wine tour captivated us, it was the private game reserve safari near Kruger National Park (Makalali) that stood as the pinnacle of our trip. Situated within a private reserve, we had the extraordinary opportunity to witness the majestic "Big Five" in their natural habitat, among a plethora of other wildlife, offering moments of awe that will be etched in our memories forever.The visit to Victoria Falls was nothing short of spectacular, compelling us to extend our stay to soak in more of the breathtaking surroundings. We wholeheartedly endorse this tour for those seeking an escape from the ordinary, craving a journey filled with exclusive experiences away from the throngs of tourists. This luxury tour promises not just a vacation, but a treasure trove of memories that will endure a lifetime. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to Bronah and our exceptional guide, Shakes, for orchestrating an adventure that was truly priceless.

Jake's was a brilliant host and made the tour an experience of a lifetime. He knows how to strike the right balance between a packed itinerary and time for you to take in things. We would love to do it again and highly, highly recommend it! Sabir and Sangita.

“Embarking on the Garden Route journey was an absolute delight! From the moment we set foot on this picturesque route until the very end, every moment was filled with inspiring beauty and unforgettable experiences. The breathtaking coastlines, and charming towns along the way made every twist and turn of the journey a new adventure waiting to unfold. Our accommodations were not only comfortable but also perfectly situated to immerse us in the natural wonders surrounding us. Gareth was fantastic. His professionalism and passion for what he do made him the perfect companion for our journey. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a rejuvenating escape into nature’s embrace.

Our two guides Samu and Tswola were super nice, organized and helpful. The accommodations were brilliant, and very different. The safari rancher showed us with much passion not only the Big5! The care was excellent, we would definitely recommend the tour!!!

Accommodations were perfect locations. The 2 guides were more like family as we were only 3 travellers. Had an amazing time. Should extend to a 7 day tour given the 2 days lost travelling to and from Kruger. Would definitely travel with Drifters again.

paid for dinner and breakfast and did not get it. hotel said they did not get info from tour company. tour company said they did. will not book with tourradar any more

Amazing trip , we had great fun

Was good, enjoyed the safari

saw the big 5. nice accommodation. great food

Wonderful experience! We had the perfect guide/driver with Wade! We would highly recommend Endless Summers for people as their introduction to the spectacular Kruger National Park!

Was a fantastic experience and we had a knowledgeable guide who was great and cooked a tasty braai! We booked very late but the team were really helpful, so we weren’t completely aware of the itinerary or where we would stay and what meals were included : that’s the only improvement I could suggest to an amazing holiday...

The entire team of Africa Moja was excellent. They provided timely, comprehensive and caring service at all steps. When we had a medical crisis they went well beyond our expectations in providing support and service to get us back on our course.

This tour was well planned and well executed. We were sent information on who our drivers were and when we could expect them ahead of time which was comforting. All went well. The drivers were courteous and personable. We enjoyed our time with them. The accomodations were very nice and the safaris were amazing.
