South Africa Adventure Tours

Excellent trip with plenty of opportunities to see the wildlife and countryside of South Africa and Eswatini. We had a brilliant guide in Sam who was friendly, fun, caring, very well organised and very knowledgeable. During our tour we saw all of the Big 5 many times and learnt about the wildlife, peoples and culture of South Africa and Eswatini. I highly recommend this tour.uk

I literally cannot find the words to express how incredible this trip was for me. 15 days of adventure, fun, adrenaline with meeting some of the best people I have ever met. We started as strangers and we left as really close friends. Our Trip Manager made it unforgettable and went above and beyond to make the trip run as smooth as possible for us. Africa is one of the best places I have ever visited and I can’t wait to return with my two sons and husband in the future. It just has so much to offer and I wouldn’t have done it any other way without Contiki. I traveled with my best friend and cousin and the three of us had such a good time. I do recommend taking any second hand clothes or stationary for the families of the township in Cape Town that you wish to donate. I wish I had known more about the townships and how very little they have in life. Really recommend using the card and app Wise as well for multiple country currencies while there. A few hotels are cash less but in saying that very good to have cash for tipping the locals if you want to. Africa definitely changes your perspective with some things in life and I feel very privileged to be able to see it the way we did. I travelled in October and the weather was perfect, warm further north we went, cooler in Cape Town. The animals and the wildlife in the national parks are just out of this world. We saw the big 5 within 2 hours of being at Kruger National Park. Was just mind-blowing and amazing to see them the way we did. Pack a rain jacket, pack binoculars, pack a head torch and neutral safari clothes. Thanks , thanks Contiki!!

Covers lot of ground and this is the one disadvantage. One day we did not arrive at our destination until past 8pm. Plenty of opportunities to get to grips with wildlife but some trips underwhelming, such as Rorke's Drift and the Hippo cruise at St Lucia. Good to have three nights at St Lucia to get over the earlier long trip, but with a couple of changes this trip could be extended a day or so and give pause for breath.

It was an amazing trip! Our tour guide was fantastic and the sites we saw were a once in a lifetime experiences! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit these three countries!

An absolute trip of a lifetime! What a fantastic holiday. It was an action packed holiday but I feel we got everything we wanted out of this trip and more. The safaris are excellent, we managed to see the big 5 and the drivers really go above and beyond to try and spot as many animals as they can for you. The additional activities were also amazing, we had an amazing time on the rafting and also on the swing / zip line in Zimbabwae. The people within our group were the best group of people you could ask for and really took our trip to the next level. We have to give a massive shout out to our guide *personal info removed by Feefo*. What an amazing man he is! He went above and beyond to ensure we all knew the time table for the days, answered any questions we had, was so knowledgeable about the places we visited and the local culture. We felt 100% safe in his care, and this also stands for all our drivers etc throughout the trip. He also went above his role for us as he helped my boyfriend to plan the perfect proposal to myself, so we really cannot thank him enough. Yes you have to pay for many of the additional activities but it is TOTALLY worth it - it will be trip we will never forget and will keep in our hearts forever. Do not hesitate to book this trip!

My first ever escorted trip by myself but definitely won’t be my last! Sydney our tour leader was amazing and looked after us so well. Our driver John got us to everywhere safely, in what were some very challenging journeys! Lots of pot holes and speed bumps in SA!! They made a great team together. The full packed itinerary suited me and although fast paced we covered a lot of the country and gave a great flavour of what SA has to offer. Finally the group on the tour were so friendly and great company - I couldn’t be happier!
