    Our tour guide Samantha was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond daily. The tour was divided into 4 unique segments, each with their own exciting aspect. Animals aren’t guaranteed, but we saw plenty, including luckily a pride of 15 lions one day, which was a special treat. We were almost one together with the elephants at the tent camp…

    Nothing beats the real deal. I now know what a true adventure is. This safari will be difficult to beat. A description of this trip will do it no justice. 4 of the Big Five (Rhinos are in Top Secret Locations), 4 of the Ugly Five (No Hyena), but only one of the Little Five (only the Ant Lion)

    6 out of the 12 days were very bad--poor accommodations, uninteresting activities. 6 of the days were good, so that makes it average. Extension to Cape Town was good.
