We had a great combination of time in Capetown, days at the safari game reserve in Kwazulu Natal, time at the Indian Ocean, and then relaxation in Durban before heading home. The whole experience was truly a memorable one. (more)Monica Belan

Everything! Hard to choose! The vast number of endemic plants, unbelievable diversity of flora, diversity of birds, both the endemic and the widespread, the Southern Right Whales, the seals, the Mountain Cape Zebra, the Meerkat and the Black Wildebeest. That being said about wildlife, the South African people were incredibly warm, co-operative and knowledgeable. They love their beautiful country and are perfect hosts to their visitors.

Memorable parts?
The game viewing at both safari lodges was excellent thanks to the high quality of the Rangers and Trackers. We have been on a number of safaris before but had not had more than fleeting views of leopards. On this trip we were lucky enough to see a large number of individual leopards at close quarters and for extended periods. We also saw packs of African Wild Dogs on 3 separate
occasions, which we had never been privileged to see before. This was all in addition to many... (more)Tony Bacon

The most exciting part of the holiday was the day we spotted some African wild dogs trying to protect their kill from 2 hyena... It was amazing to see and hear the commotion and see the dogs defend their kill... We felt very privileged to witness this and will never forget the experience!

Excellent. Utterly brilliant. If you want QUALITY of experience of game viewing, avoiding the scrum and scramble that happens in some more traditional safaris, then this is definitely for you. (more)Nigel Jordan
