Amazing trip with a very busy itinerary and early mornings. Must holiday for those who enjoy wildlife and photography. Tour guide was very knowledgeable!
Sam was hands down the best tour leader we could have asked for! From the moment she met us at the airport she brought an infectious energy that kept the group excited and engaged every step of the way. Always attentive and looking out for everyone, Sam made sure we were safe, informed and most importantly - having fun. Her passion for what she does truly shines through every single day. If you're lucky enough to have Sam as your guide, you'll have the most unforgettable adventure.
The best trip with Explore ever!! Our guide Samantha was fabulous, gracious, hard working, funny, informative and a great driver. We saw and did so many things that I cannot list them all but they were all fantastic. We saw the Big Five plus dozens of other species plus fabulous venues and food. I would recommend this trip for anyone who wants to get to know South Africa and have a great time.
Excellent busy trip with lots of variations. Some long days travelling. Animal viewing generally very good.
