Caroline D | Traveled in August
Fabulous experience, just felt we couldn’t gel as well with everyone because of joining the tour halfway through, personally for me when booking a G Adventure tour again, it will be a question that I would ask whether it is the start of a tour or halfway through. As I only want to start at the beginning of a tour. Overall, a wonderful overview and intro into Africa.
