    It was perfect! Jack told us everything we needed to know and more! He cooked for us and it was delicious. Even for me (a vegetarian), he made a special meal every day, it was awesome and made me feel very welcome. He and the driver knew exactly how to minimize the waiting times at the national parks and the borders, so we had more time to enjoy the trips.

    If you are at all interested in this tour, just book it. Our accommodations were all better than I expected and Jack (Moyenda) was an incredible guide. He made delicious braai, told us fun facts, gave us good advice for all our adventures, and made sure our group got along. Couldn’t recommend more. Do it.

    Duncan and Philile were absolutely amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better duo as both were incredibly knowledgeable and so much fun to be with. Duncan's cooking was out of this world and Philile's driving and animal knowledge was incredible. Thanks to these guys and the rest of the great support at Acacia Adventure Holidays, I had the time of my life! You guys rock!

What our customers ask about this tour

The content in our FAQ section is subject to change.
  • What is the Adventure Pass?

    Every Acacia Overland tour has an Adventure Pass which is paid to your tour leader in Africa at the beginning of the tour (or pre-paid by arrangement prior to your tour). This is separate and in addition to the Tour Price, and covers selected park entries, activities and excursions along the way where payment goes directly to the supplier to ensure local suppliers benefit directly from the income.
