South Africa Tour Reviews for Solo Travelers
Read honest reviews from solo travelers on our solo trips in South Africa.
Bee was an amazing tour guide. With a large group, she made sure we were well taken care of and truly made this trip wonderful. She went above and beyond to make sure those that wanted additional excursions secured bookings, and those with special dietary restrictions were accommodated. She truly made what would have been an ordinary trip, extraordinary.
Fabulous trip, made wonderful by the guide Bee, and driver Riyaan. Good balance of planned and independent activities. SA is a very affordable holiday destination so eating out was a real pleasure and quality excellent. Group was diverse which made it entertaining and memorable.
This was a great opportunity to see some peaceful and very green areas of South Africa and Eswatini with a wonderful guide who made the whole experience work well. He was always smiling, informative and well organised and the group responded well to this. Travelling long distances and making proper long safaris inevitably involves sitting in vehicles. This was interspersed with mountain walking and sea swimming. I could have done more of the latter but the trip was as described.
Excellent itinerary showcasing the highlights of the western Cape and the Garden Route. Stunning landscapes- wild and wonderful beaches, unexpected mountain ranges and barren plains. Food was high quality and very reasonably priced, as was the wine. All accommodation was well equipped and of a high standard. Kirstenbosch gardens are lovely. Views from Table Mountain awesome. Storms river camp has a kitchenette but no tea/ coffee/ milk sachets etc so might be worth collecting some along the way. The kayaking at Storms river was well worth doing - despite my initial trepidation I loved the "motion of the ocean" and felt safe. If the opportunity arises Birds of Eden and Monkeyland sanctuaries both well worth visitiing -thanks to our guide Wern for facilitating so many different experiences.
This trip was incredible, and I can't wait to do it again! It was my first Contiki tour, and it certainly won't be my last. I highly recommend this trip, especially the safari. Our tour guide, was fantastic! His knowledge and passion for the job made the experience even more enjoyable. I truly appreciated everything he shared and his dedication to making our trip memorable.
This trip is no doubt one of the best I've ever been on! Our trip manager was fantastic, always bringing the energy, but he also has a genuine love for showing people his home, which added to the experience when he was sharing stories of the culture and history in Southern Africa. Of course the highlights had to be the game drives with so many awesome sightings, as well as the group I was in! It was hard to say goodbye after all the friendships we made. Would absolutely recommend! 🤩
