My Essence of South Africa journey with Trafalgar was unforgettable from start to finish. The itinerary struck the perfect balance between adventure, culture, and relaxation, giving me a deeper appreciation for the country’s landscapes and the people who call it home. The safari experiences were truly the highlight—expert guides and trackers made every game drive feel like a once-in-a-lifetime moment. From watching wildlife at sunrise to witnessing scenes I’ve only ever seen in documentaries, each day brought something new and exciting. All hotels and lodges were perfect! Food selection at hotels were exceptional!

This trip is simply wonderful! It has everything you could ask for- wild animals, amazing culture, wonderful people, beautiful landscapes and stunning food and drink. I have always wanted to go to South Africa and thought this trip was a great way to see so much of it but it has exceeded all expectations.
Paula F. | Traveled in December
This small group tour fulfilled a childhood dream. It ran smoothly and was very professional from start to finish. The tour directors and guides were very responsive to the interests and needs of our group. We were fortunate to see so many different species of animals. A very memorable experience was having a very personal encounter with the wild elephants of Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust. Thank you Collette for making a dream come true and reigniting a passion to care for and appreciate our beautiful planet!
