South Africa 5-Day Tours and Trips

I was initially wary about booking with an online company, but I shouldn't have been! Expat provided a totally wonderful experience and a holiday of a lifetime. The accommodation was lovely and the tour guide was full of information and humour. I will definitely travel with Expat again and would happily recommend the same to anyone wanting a fun filled informative holiday.

from start to end everything was beyond superb the drive although taking most of the day was broken up at excellent locations, the Petroport where a ‘taste of things to come’ in terms of wildlife could be viewed and in the pretty town of Dullstroom where I got to put my very limited Afrikaans to use the safari lodge is beautiful and relaxing, the staff all so kind and beyond helpful, Riye on reception gave us such a lovely welcome, all of the staff that i encountered were beyond kind and helpful, they truly treated you as part of ‘the family’ all of the game drives and excursions were educational, informative and breathtaking every guide that I had the fortune to meet was so knowledgeable and wanted to make sure we enjoyed every moment with them and even helped me track down a store to purchase a replacement ‘Cabin Bag’ as mine decided to break Momma D you will never be forgotten, your cooking and beautiful personality will be very much missed

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.

My husband and I had a fantastic trip. Our tour guide was full of information and you could tell he loved his country so he gave us loads of info

Very well organised from start to finish. All staff friendly and professional and got to see and do a lot during the trip. Saw a big pride of lions very close up within 10 minutes on our first drive and saw all of the big five over the six days - including lots of elephants, many more than expected! Also had two separate leopard sightings which was a treat. Accommodation was clean and comfortable and meals were all good too. All-in-all a very pleasant and enjoyable experience and would definitely recommend.

Truly unforgettable experience with a fantastic guide (Matt) who is informative, humourous, easy going and friendly. The safari drives were magical and we managed to see 4 of the big 5 as well as many of species of animals. The day of sightseeing at Blyde River and Bourke's Luck is also pretty spectacular. The accommodation and meals were of a decent standard and the coach was comfortable enough. Highly recommended.
