- Kruger National Park & Panorama Route Safari - 3 days
We did a two-day custom tour with Jakes for Panorama route and Kruger National Park. If you are looking for a tour custom to your needs, this is exactly the tour you need. We were constrained in terms of the activities that we could do due to our 1-year-old son. Jakes took very well care this and ensure we get maximum out of our visit to Panorama route and Kruger National Park.
- Cradle of Human Kind, Sun City & Pilanesberg Game Reserve Tour
The tour was very interesting and we saw 2 of the Big 5 and a lot of other animals. Our first time to South Africa to see the animals up close. Our guide Jakes was very knowledgeable and he knew where to spot the animals. Very sharp eyes too. What a wonderful experience, and we had such a lovely time in Pilanesberg and Johannesburg. Amatungulu is highly recommended to anyone who is considering this tour
