South Africa Explorer Tours 2019/2020

“The trip overall was great! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the animals, and even the drive through the mountains just getting to the reserve was breathtaking.

The game reserve itself was beautiful. Please do note that it's a private reserve, not a national park like Kruger. We were aware of this beforehand, but many reviews complain about this not being truly "wild" animals. Our travel itinerary didn't allow for the time to fly over to Kruger for a more extensive safari, so Aquila was the next best thing (and relatively close to Cape Town). The animals have generally all been rescued from the wild, and they have substantial area to roam, so the tour still felt more safari-like, not a zoo at all.

Before the game drive, a buffet breakfast was served, and lunch was also provided after the drive as well. The lodge also had rooms for overnight guests, though we only did a day trip.

The game drive lasted for about 3 hours, during which time we saw hippos, rhinos, elephants, springbok, giraffes, lions, hartebeest, and a wildebeest. It really was an incredible experience, and the photos and memories will be with us for a long time!”

“Almost 20 days of repudiation, pay for something that is not worth the price. Nightmare sometimes like having to argue with the guide to sleep inside the bus because in the camping tents it was impossible .. because they are wet and dirty. Yes I did It and it happened.
If you can, choose another company. The only thing that was amazing was the Game in Kruger (But it was not the Acacia Africa that offered, it was a contracted company), a little bit of Mountain Zebra National Park and St. Lucia. Only.”

“The best tour of our life. Thanks!”
