Cape Town Wildlife Safaris and Game Drives Tours 2024/2025

“Recently returned from our 21 day tour, we would like to thank our tour company for facilitating such a wonderful holiday. The itinerary provided an excellent route of highlights from Cape Town to Victoria Falls, spending the majority of time in Namibia. Our guide Adam, was professional, organised and patient at all times. We enjoyed sensational landscapes and experiences: climbing the dunes at Sossusvlei, seeing one of the oldest plants in the world, meeting intriguing people like the Bushmen and Himba tribes and delighting in the birds and animals of Africa. We were accommodated in surprisingly varied and excellent places, oasis-like in the desert on occasion. This tour ticked all our boxes for a fascinating and memorable trip and the new app gave us the heads-up on the details for each day. We can't wait to book our next adventure.”

“Francis our guide was super! very professional and informative. Tour itself was also very nice, as expected, and we saw all big 5! Lodge was great, i would have loved to stay there one more night!”

“The trip overall was great! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the animals, and even the drive through the mountains just getting to the reserve was breathtaking. The game reserve itself was beautiful. Please do note that it's a private reserve, not a national park like Kruger. We were aware of this beforehand, but many reviews complain about this not being truly "wild" animals. Our travel itinerary didn't allow for the time to fly over to Kruger for a more extensive safari, so Aquila was the next best thing (and relatively close to Cape Town). The animals have generally all been rescued from the wild, and they have substantial area to roam, so the tour still felt more safari-like, not a zoo at all. Before the game drive, a buffet breakfast was served, and lunch was also provided after the drive as well. The lodge also had rooms for overnight guests, though we only did a day trip. The game drive lasted for about 3 hours, during which time we saw hippos, rhinos, elephants, springbok, giraffes, lions, hartebeest, and a wildebeest. It really was an incredible experience, and the photos and memories will be with us for a long time!”
