Professional booking agent with good communications with clients.
Loved our Safari staying at Hamiltons and Hoyo Hoyo lodges and then on to Cape Town. All organised and carried out professionally. Top quality service and matching game drives. Could not be faulted!!!!

Amazing Safari Experience - 9 nights / 10 days in 3 lodges around Kruger (South Africa)
I was very satisfied by the level of service provided by Greatest Africa in helping me finding the right lodges to meet my expectations. The 3 were at the same time very different, providing diversity in the experiences and safaris offered but still very luxurious with amazing and caring staffs.
All internal flights and transfers had been booked in advance.
Throughout my trip, everything went very smoothly and I did not have to worry about a thing. All transfers arrived on time (usually even in advance in case I wanted to leave earlier) and the chauffeurs from the company Greatest Africa had chosen were all very friendly and helpful (going out of their way to make me happy).
Overall the standard of the trip was very good and I am perfectly satisfied with the experience. Definitely worth my money and would recommend it.

The perfect "bucket list" trip ever.
We had always wanted to experience South Africa and do "The Big 5" game park stay. We looked at booking locally from Australian companies but they all seemed so expencive and didntgive us the experience we wanted in a small personal tour without breaking the bank. During my searches of the internet i discovered Greatest Africa, a local SA company specialising in tailor made trips.
Vanessa was amazing from start to finish, some 3 years ago i had my 3rd throat cancer surgery leaving me unable to eat any food via my mouth and all meals need to be pureed to a fine liquid somi can tube feed via a PEG.
Vanessa was able to understand my needs and after knowing what type of high powered blender was needed she was able to book us into an amazin hotel in Capetown and 2 x 5 star game lodges with the correct blender to make all my meals.
My wife said it was her best holiday ever, the game lodges were perfect, the food amazing and the total experience and game drives ons to remember forever.
Thankyouever so much for our mazing holiday and for your personal and profestional service.
Highly recomended to all, not just us "Tubies"

Great tours in South Africa.
We have used Greatest Africa several times during our visits to South Africa. It's easy to communicate with them and always good suggestions and quick answers to our requests and questions. They have a very good software generating your itinerary with good tourist information.
Each time we take a vine tour with Rickard. Then we have come to very nice wine tastings at the best vineyards. We have also visited some very interesting cultural places of interest.
The hotels we have been booked at have been of the highest class and very varied. Central in Hermanus, where you could see the whales from the balcony. Nice vineyards, where you had very good wine and food. Far out in the wilderness, where the antelopes passed a few meters from the tables when we finished the dessert. Central in Cape Town, where it's very close to Waterfront.
I can really recommend Greatest Africa for a nice vacation in South Africa.

A great all-round experience down memory lane
Having spent my youth in South Africa, I returned with a group of friends for my 70th birthday. The 2-week stay in the Cape was terrific. Greatest Africa contributed significantly for a pleasant stay in the Stellenbosch Winelands, a 3-day game safari a 3 hours drive from Cape Town, all culminating with several days in CT itself : a unique city & setting with incredible diversity. Greatest Africa provided a very attentive & responsive service that resulted in a highly successful trip. They understood our needs & found solutions in all situations.

Fabulous!!
We are back in Canada and dealing with jet lag, but just wanted to say thank you for a wonderful trip that you arranged for us! Richard did an amazing wine tour for us, and the hotels you arranged were fabulous! We loved Majeka, and O on the Kloof was funky and fun to stay at - we just wished we'd had more time to stay at both! We'll definitely recommend you for friends visiting and we will be back in a couple of years too! Thanks for everything.

Winter Sun
We had the most wonderful couple of weeks in SA organised by Greatest Africa, covering Cape Town, Kruger and Franschhoek; with fishing, riding and wine tours all organised with their expertise. Greatest Africa were always on hand to assist day and night, and went the extra mile to make our holiday as memorable as possible. Highly recommended.

Safari, Vic Falls and Cape Town - Trip of a lifetime
From first contact with Vanessa we had excellent service and she was extremely patient as we tweaked the itinerary a number of times and asked numerous questions. The choice of venues was excellent - perfect for our needs. In particular Motswari Game Reserve was outstanding with so many memorable experiences and 'encounters' with the big 5 and so much more. All the transfers were seamless and everything operated like clockwork - completely hassle and stress free. We would unreservedly recommend Greatest Africa and Vanessa who put together such a brilliant itinerary for us.
