Cape Town Tours in October 2026

Just returned home from the 12 day Intro Tour in South Africa and wow what an amazing experience it was! From start to finish the tour was so efficiently planned out. Our group leader was Dan and his proactiveness and willingness to go above and beyond really eased the whole process for a first time solo traveller; messaging about transport options from the airport, daily packing lists and itinerary reminders, as well as being a really enthusiastic and fun guy. His love for South Africa shone through and made our experience incredible. As well as that we had a local guide called Liezl whos knowledge on her country was next to none, regularly providing story times on the bus and cultural facts as well as her love for birds on the game drives haha! She also went above and beyond in making the trip both memorable and informative. The overall trip itinerary was perfect! Starting off with the important history of South Africa in Johannesburg which set the scene for the trip before travelling round on game drives and seeing all the amazing wildlife South Africa has, truly a once in a lifetime experience. The culture in South Africa is really incredible and the locals loved putting on performances for us and getting us involved. And finally we arrived in Cape Town, which stole my heart. The most beautiful city on earth! South Africa I will be back and Intro Travel, thank you for making this trip all that it is!

Lovely trip, this is my second explore trip, the first was a very experienced guide in Costa Rica, Nathi was our guide for this one he said he was new to explore, what he lacked in explore experience he gained in his buzzing personality and local knowledge, he was a great kind and considerate guide nothing was too much trouble. He arranged things and recommend things sharing his knowledge freely. As he gets more experience he’ll be a great asset to Explore. You never know what people you’ll get on such a holiday and I’m always a bit apprehensive since I don’t suffer fools. Fortunately everyone seemed to bond by the end of the 2 weeks. Re the itinerary it was a good balance, maybe include the wine tasting as part of it instead of an option.

This was a trip of a lifetime. We enjoyed every minute. South Africa was such a pleasant surprise. The animals and our closeness was exhilarating. Zimbabwe and Victoria Falls were breathtaking also. Checking off our bucket list and wonders of the world one at a time. This one didn?t not disappoint!

It was an absolute wonderful experience, from Cape Town to Johannesburg to Windhoek to Victoria Falls. I learned so much history, eye opening. Such fabulous safaris, I was in awe in seeing the Big 5 and all the other animals. The dunes in Namibia was more than I expected., such beauty. It was a great experience to eat a typical Namibian dinner at a restaurant as well as at a family home. Great conversation. 3 beautiful countries with beautiful people.

Got the flavor of the country in cities, townships and the bush. People were friendly & happy, despite the challenges and a poor economy. Seeing so many birds & animals thriving in their natural environment brings great joy!

We had the trip of a lifetime. We saw so many incredible things and learned so much about the culture, people, history and environment of Southern Africa. I?ve told everyone I know that this a journey they must take if they ever get the chance. Thank you to G Adventures and National Geographic for an outstanding adventure!!
