    It was an awesome and fantastic experience, mainly because of our phenomenal guide Papa G! I was very impressed by all his background knowledge, about wild life, history, politics and everything! Moreover he has the right spirit to engage the whole group and give everyone a fantastic time. And he is a great chef!!! For my next trip to Africa I would definitely look to book a trip lead by Papa G!!!

    Great tour with amazing people and very knowledgeable guide & driver! Thoroughly enjoyed the mix of safari, nature, hiking, exploring and engaging with the local residents. Great selection of additional activities, so that everybody could individually decide what to do and follow his interests. G was the best guide we could have asked for! He also prepared very tasty meals every day and shared a lot of interesting aspects and personal stories of his southafrican live. I had the best time travelling with Acacia and I would highly recommend this tour with G!

    The last leg of our three stages travelling Cape Town to Cape Town. Gee was an absolutely fantastic guide - very knowledgeable about the places, people, history, animals....every topic you could think of! Always happy to answer any further questions or just have a chat. Excellent sense of humour and very witty (especially in a musical sense). The tour would not have been as enjoyable without Gee as our guide.

    Gee was the best rep I’ve had, he has set the bar very high now, I went on two other tours with separate companies and nothing compares. Gee takes great pride in his trips from the amazing food he cooked us (especially the veggies, dairy allergy and gluten allergy that was in our group ) to asking everyone what they wanted from their trip ie excursions and giving us all the info we needed he even arranged it for us. Due to my allergies I was worried I would struggle in a camp environment and in fact I put weight on and ate like a Queen -which I didn’t expect in Africa. Not only was gee’s veggie spag Bol the best I’ve ever had he is really knowledgeable and would explain key facts and stories about everywhere we went. I had the best time on this trip and South Africa is now my 1. Thanks steph
