Reviews of our Johannesburg Tours for April
Feedback from guests whose tour started in/around Johannesburg during April.
Kathleen H. | Traveled in April
Overall this was an excellent tour. The Cape Town section was great with a wide variety of sites to visit. The lunch at Penguino in Hermanus was delicious and hilarious. The Cullinan Hotel was very good and we appreciated the visit to the District Six museum - an eye opener. However, the transition to Hoedspruit was poor - we were not given our flight times, the flight was delayed for 5 hours, there was no direct communication with Trafalgar. That was redeemed at the Karongwe game reserve - great game viewing (Big 5 + cheetahs in 2 days) with skilled rangers and simple, comfortable accommodation. The food was good except, surprisingly, the meat was tough. The staff there were very courteous and friendly. The brief visit to Johannesburg was very good: the guided tours to the Old Fort Prison and new Constitutional Court and to Regina Mundi church and other sites in Soweto were really great. As former South Africans, we thought this tour gave all of us an excellent, short overview of the Cape, the Bush and Johannesburg. And we appreciated the personalized attention to detail from Trafalgar s guides.

Good all encompassing tour. Excellent guides. Lovely group. Only gripe is the transport; considering the amount of time spent on the bus it was extremely uncomfortable. Seats hard, poor springs, tendency to slide off the seats as they were covered with a camp like material.
Frank and Marion Rose | Traveled in April
Travel itinerary met our expectations completely. Chris was incredibly helpful and supportive throughout our entire trip. As for the places and experiences we enjoyed the most, there were too many to list.
Martha | Traveled in April
This was the most amazing adventure, many times so overwhelming it brought tears to my eyes. Africa will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you G Adventures for a fabulous time.
Andy | Traveled in April
Truly unforgettable experience with a fantastic guide (Matt) who is informative, humourous, easy going and friendly. The safari drives were magical and we managed to see 4 of the big 5 as well as many of species of animals. The day of sightseeing at Blyde River and Bourke's Luck is also pretty spectacular. The accommodation and meals were of a decent standard and the coach was comfortable enough. Highly recommended.
Zoe | Traveled in April
This was an incredible tour with life changing experiences. The accommodation is rustic but that means the group bonds beyond any other tour I?ve ever done. I would recommend this trip in a heartbeat!
