    This was my second G adventures tour and I wholly enjoyed it. The CEOs were wonderful, loving, kind and patient and it was an honour to get to know them and become their friend. This was a highlight on its own and one of the main reasons I would recommend G adventures to my friends and family.

    Because it was a fun and exciting adventure, and I really enjoyed the camping aspect. I've done a classic trip before and I wouldn't of experienced elephants, hippos and hyenas walking in between our tents if I was staying in a hotel. It was very surreal feeling to have been able to have this experience.

    It was exactly the trip I was looking for. We covered so much ground but particularly the areas that I wanted to see including Lake Malawi, the Serengeti and, my favourite, Victoria Falls. I travelled on my own and met some fantastic people and also felt like I really escaped the office and got back to nature. Everything was organised for us with many fantastic optional extras so gave you and additional flexibility.

    Our guide and driver were good and had loads of knowledge. They were very positive, helpful and provided a great range of food. They cater for most likes/dislikes, provide tea/coffee and meals were always filling. You will need to buy your own water and snacks for in between and they take you to the shops for this. Transportation is a truck and with a low number of people ok for space. However with the maximum number there isn't much room to move or to carry extra bags/personal items. The truck doesn't have air con but the windows work well! Accommodation is a basic tent but you only sleep in it at night so it does the job. Almost every night is a new camp site except major stops like Malawi, Livingstone, etc when you camp in same place for a couple of news. Zanzibar is hotel. For the Serengeti and Zanzibar you can only take a small pack and your big bags are left on the truck except if you are departing in Zanzibar. Tipping was done in most places but it wasn't always a choice of the value - in some places we had a set tipping price (i.e. $5 per person). It pays to carry extra money for tipping in case of this. This is also not mentioned in the itinerary under tipping. This is a great trip to see Eastern/Southern Africa if you have never been and shows you a large number of places. There are some early starts, long days driving and it can be go go go, but you will see lots and really get a feel of the culture. It can also help you find places you will one day go back to that you maybe never thought of. I never felt a concern for my safety. 4 weeks in Africa - the trip of a lifetime! Enjoy!
