South Africa Solo Trip Reviews

5 - Excellent
Based on 284 customer reviews
Very Good!
5 - Excellent
  • Gavin
“Highlights - Watching the stunning scenery roll by, tea & scones in charming Matjiesfontein, Prince Albert, Victoria Beach, Monkeyland, Plettenberg Bay, Storms River Mouth walk, and accommodation. Phillip was an attentive and knowledgeable guide. Relaxed and very professional. Good sense of humour.”
If you don't book this you're missing out!
5 - Excellent
  • Lachy Burke
“Third tour with the tour operator and it is definitely the best (which is no mean feat against such incredible competition!) The tour experience is the perfect blend between exploration and relaxation. During week one, you explore Buddhist temples, tea plantations and hike to reach unreal views. Week two is all about stunning beaches, infinity pools and elephant spotting. It was an absolute dream. The accommodation is some of the best this tour operator has to offer; the hotel in Unuwatuna was my personal favourite, offering the most incredible service (and that breakfast!!). The food throughout the entire trip was out of this world! Last but not least was our leader, Roisin. The best leader I have had on any trip - full of energy, sass and ready to take charge of any situation with the locals. She and the rest of the 5th April group have made the past two weeks unforgettable - if you don't book this you're missing out!”
Totally worth it!
5 - Excellent
  • Theresa Kaplee
“Such a beautiful country! Our group leader Roisin was incredible! She made sure the whole trip was running as smoothly as possible 24/7. She was even helpful in capturing the perfect Instagram shots! This tour was totally worth it!”
