Southern Africa Adventure Trips

Fabulous tour, the tour guy (Tarak) was fantastic, knew everything and was very friendly and sociable, the coach driver (Anwar) was a great driver. All tours were well planned and on time. Excellent tour itinerary.

This was a brilliant tour and the itinerary covered all of the areas of Egypt that we had time too. Very efficient and thorough. Accommodation excellent and Nile Cruise superb. Tour guide Tarek was brilliant!

This is a great trip if you are interested in seeing wildlife. A large part of the trip is spent on safari, whether it be in the Kruger Park or St Lucia. We were lucky enough to get several leopard sightings, and numerous close encounters with elephants. We saw plenty of hippos, zebra, giraffe and antelope, and large variety of birds. The trip covered a lot of ground, so there were inevitably some long bus journeys, but it was worth it. There was also some stunning mountain scenery too in the Drakensberg and Eswatini. The accommodation was on the whole good, mainly staying in simple eco lodges, which I felt was in keeping with the nature of the trip. It could get cold in the evening, depending on what time of year you are travelling, and the lighting was never good when it got dark. The accommodation at the Kruger, I felt could have been better, particularly at the Phabeni Sleepover, where I thought the barbecue they provided was expensive for what they offered, and the takeaway breakfast not great. Overall, I hugely enjoyed the trip. Good company, good guide. It was tiring with a lot of early morning starts, but worth it. In some places I felt it was a bit rushed – barely 30 minutes at the Talana Museum, and 30 minutes at Rourke’s Drift, so it was difficult to assimilate anything much. I would have been quite happy for the trip to be a day or 2 longer, even though it would be more expensive, so it wouldn’t feel quite so rushed.

Lots of variety. Not just waterfalls and landscape, we saw many other things and learned the history of Iceland. We especially enjoyed the Cave tours. I thought the food was delicious but often the dinner meat portions were way too big for me to eat it all! We loved our tour guide Robbie- he was so knowledgeable about everything. We loved our bus driver too - Ollie.

Great balance of planned activities, free time to explore, and other options if you wanted to participate in more opportunities. Our tour guide, Robbie made the trip more enjoyable. He was so knowledgeable and organized. He paid attention to all the small details. The bus driver was great as well. We were glad that we went a day early to catch up on sleep and get acclimated to Reykjavík and the time difference. The bus transportation requires every person to have their own credit card account number. We tried to use our visa twice and the payment was declined.

We saw the lights several times. Our tour guide Robby knew where to go to see them so we were always successful. The itinerary looks us to very interesting places to learn about the people and history of the island. I highly recommend it.
