South Africa and Turkey Tours and Trips

The tour leader was excellent but after 3 weeks without a break she was very tired towards the end. She was also not able to provide more historical knowledge as not qualified to do so. The accommodation was excellent but the home stay was very basic in all respects. Probably a little too basic but appreciate it helps a Turkish family. The walks were superb.

It’s been the best trip I’ve been on ever! My trip manager really made this journey worry free. I did so much activities such as Kayaking, surfing, helicopter ride. I saw many animals in their natural habitats. I learnt a lot about this country’s history. Everything was wonderful and I was really sad when it came to an end.

A full on trip which maximised our time in South Africa. A really good balance of cultural insights, scenery and wildlife. This wouldn't have been possible without our super guide Christian. He knew how to keep us safe, was resolutely positive and energetic, and made the trip. There was a lot of driving which we knew about when we booked. If we had more annual leave available, we would have booked an extra night in Capetown at the end. This would have enabled us to book both a Robben Island excursion, and a Cape of Good Hope trip. We are very glad that we booked this trip.

A very well organised walking holiday which included the underground city and a museum. The itinerary was not in the same order as published but didn't miss anything out. The hotel was well placed for balloon viewing in the morning before we set out, with them often coming right over us. The walking was challenging and long enough for the majority age group with some slight scrambles and most days some steep slippery parts with sand and gravel on rock. Poles recommended. I wouldn't have wanted to do this trip in winter, late September was perfect. We always got time for a lunch break either in a town or a picnic at a drinks cafe. It takes 10-12 minutes to walk into town for dinner on the nights that were not group meals. There was a restaurant at the hotel but we didn't use it until the last night. Better value in town. The pick up and return to the airport was also very good, as was our guide and driver. The landscapes are amazing. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone used to a bit of walking.

We opted to do this over hiking Mt Kilimanjaro. So glad we did. I loved the variety of the wildlife and the hiking. The terrain was excellent with a good amount of challenge. Clifford our guide was fabulous. He pointed out the wildlife, gave us interesting information on all sorts of things and led our walks managing a range of abilities and speeds. We loved the trip and had an awesome time. Would highly recommend it to anyone.

The perfect blend of city life, adventure, and unforgettable safari experiences. Our Trip Manager, Sim, was outstanding—highly professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and an absolute blast to travel with. His expertise on each country we visited was unmatched, and no matter the question, he always had the answer. His ability to speak multiple languages made communication seamless with both locals and guides, adding so much depth to the experience. The safari guides were truly remarkable. Their talent for spotting wildlife—camouflaged in dense trees or hidden in the distance—was nothing short of impressive. Even with their help, I often needed extra direction just to see what they had already noticed! I would do this trip again in a heartbeat—ten times over.
