What people love about Cape Town to Johannesburg Tours
- South African Escape
Tour guide Mathew provided excellent and good humoured leadership.
- Journeys: Explore Cape Town & Kruger National Park National Geographic Journeys
The entire experience was amazing! I felt comfortable with both of the CEOs and was thankful the drivers were local. It was one of those trips, after having booked it and the plane ticket, didn't have to worry about anything else such as food, transportation, lodging. It was nice to have everything taken care of. We started at Cape Town, then headed to Soweto, then to Kruger National Park, and some private game reserves. Cape Town has world class dining and so many things to do and explore. The visit to Soweto was made all the more spectacular after we learned our guide had been a part of the events/history. It was amazing to hear from her. Kruger was a fun experience, but nothing like the private game reserves. You'll see if you go on this trip. I highly recommend it. It was a very pleasant trip and I can't wait to go back to South Africa.
- Ultimate Cape Town, Kruger, Botswana & Victoria Falls - 10 Days Luxury Expeditions
I recently embarked on the Ultimate Cape Town, Kruger, Botswana & Victoria Falls 10-day luxury expedition, and it exceeded all expectations! The seamless coordination of diverse experiences showcased the best of Southern Africa. From the majestic landscapes of Kruger to the cultural richness of Cape Town and the untamed beauty of Botswana, each destination was a unique masterpiece. The luxurious accommodations and personalized service added a touch of opulence to the adventure. Our knowledgeable guide Medison Samwel ensured a deep understanding of the region's flora and fauna. Witnessing the breathtaking Victoria Falls finale was the perfect conclusion. A truly unforgettable journey, highly recommended for those seeking a premium African experience!
