It was a magical, once in a lifetime trip. I had so much fun and it was everything I hope it would be and more. Our CEO, safaris, accommodation, travel and food were all excellent. This was my third G Adventures tour and by far the best!
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.

It was an amazing experience. Everything from booking to accommodation, tour leaders, included activities was top notch. The safaris were wonderful. It was so nice to have everything organized for us. Can?t say enough about CEO, drivers, and general organization. Was a pricey tour but worth every penny, or Rand!
Excellent. Trip of a life time. Very interesting loved to seeing the animals in their natural habitat but the cultural aspect that were the included aspects but also the additional paid excursions. Many of the expert added guides were very very good adding lots to the trip. I especially liked the guide/researcher to the Namibia in the desert who took us for a tour in the desert describing how the flora and fauna survived without rain etc.so very interesting. I also enjoyed the tour in the Botanical Garden in Cape Town, very interesting but too short. The only caution is that if you take this tour, you need to be aware of the long rides, usually necessary due to the isolation of some sites, and lots of early mornings. Always need to be prepared for lots of tipping on a daily basis. Overall, would highly recommend

Loved it. This is our second National Geographic Gadventure. We did exactly what we came to do. All our COs were fantastic. Will do another trip with Gadventures in the future.
It was a great trip with fantastic game viewing and knowledgeable guides. The accommodation was unique & comfortable, but Rhino lodge at Kosi bay was the poorest -the rooms etc were lovely but there was a decidedly run down aspect to the site and the dinning room service was notable lacking -2-3hr wait after ordering but the food when it came was fine -very understaffed and pushed, not helped by sharing facilities with an inebriated wedding group. Wernan the guide was competent, knowledgeable and did all he could to facilitate the experience -including re driving thro the mountains so we could see Gods Window etc as our first journey was thro thick fog etc with no visibility. Great trip, especially for the kids.
This trip is definitely full-on with early starts and late evening activities. That said, it’s packed with great experiences, sights, sounds and smells ! If you want to explore as much as you can of South Africa and Eswatini in as short a time as possible then this holiday is for you !
Our National Geographic G Adventures tour of Kruger, Namibia and Victoria Falls was a fabulous small group tour, with outstanding wildlife experiences, luxurious accommodation, great people and flawless organisation. I would recommend it to anyone
Hop aboard one of our Landos (overland adventure vehicle) and cruise through Botswana, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. 15 days of wildlife, captivating wilderness, and remote camp outs making for an epic overlanding adventure. Find the “big five” in Kruger National Park, feel the spray of Victoria Falls, search for rhinos on foot in Matobo National Park, sing songs around the fire with locals, travel into the delta by mokoro canoe and spend time getting to know Africa on a deeper level.
Spend eight days on a once-in-a-lifetime-wildlife tour through Southern Africa that really can’t be topped. Visit Zimbabwe’s Matobo National Park, track animals on foot and view resident wildlife from an open-vehicle. Later, search for the “big five” in South Africa’s Kruger National Park and experience the unique traditions of the local people. This is authentic Africa right before your very eyes.
