The only tour operators I would recommend for Southern Africa.
Our family hadn't been to Southern Africa before (I had) so they were a bit nervous. Therefore, I wanted this trip to expose them to all the wonders of this part of the world but to always feel safe. Our wonderful consultant Andrew listened to our preferences and then added his own local knowledge and expertise and crafted the most exciting trip. He even joined us for a beer when we were in Cape Town. He fitted in with Australian time zones for phone calls and shaped up the itinerary into a wonderful two-week indulgence - there is nothing like local knowledge that you can trust. We went to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe (yes, my son bungee jumped 111metres off the old bridge!); Chobi National Park, Botswana; and Kruger Game Reserve & Cape Town, South Africa. We were picked up at airports and hotels/lodges always on time, we were indulged by the most beautiful and hospitable hosts and lovely venues, we ate amazing food, we saw beautiful natural panoramas and yes we saw the big five! I can't describe lying in bed at night and hearing lions roar within earshot! Cape Town blew us away and the trip down to the Cape of Good Hope was extraordinary. This has been an amazing experience we still talk about often. We will never forget it. We are definitely going back and most certainly organising it through Safari 365 (they aren't paying us to say that). Our Australian friends think we were brave and adventurous but little do they know we were in 5 star comfort and did not feel unsafe at all - except maybe the first time a lion walked past our open topped jeep! Definitely do it!!!

They were unbelievable.
From the initial contact to arrival back home they were always there to help, give advice and asking how things were going. They put the holiday we were dreaming off together, which can not be faulted. Will not hesitate to recommend them to anyone and certainly will be using them again.

Safari 365 is a remarkable tour operator and only provide the best in every aspect.
I recenlty completed a 10 day Safari in Tanzania with my family organized by Safari 365 and I cannot recommend them enough. The itinerary that Zannon put together was well planned and executed from start to finish. If we had to shorten our trip, it would have been very difficult to decide which area to eliminate. Each safari park offered an unforgetable adventure.
Logistics were perfectly organized that allowed us to relax without worrying in all the details. The accomodations were excellent and provided us different experience. Our favorite was Simbavati Grumeti; the service, people, food, ambiance were extra ordinary.
Trevor Stoutz of Safari 365 was available for us the whole time, he was professional, responsive patiently answering all our inquiries and went out of his way to assist on everything including handling our delayed luggage, made sure it was tracked down and delivered to our lodge.
Our guides (Mudy and Ronald) were the best. They had deep knowledge on the area, the animals and with great communication skills which made our safari experience exceptional. I like how both guides tried to involve our girls who are 11 and 14 years old. I also want to thank Safari 365 for putting something together to celebrate our daughter's birthday. Almost each accomodation had something arranged for her.
I am already thinking of our next Safari trip and would definetely do it again with Safari 365. They have made our first Safari experience one-of-a-kind.
Zannon Rocks! He interpreted the needs and desires of our family of 7 and then delivered!
Zannon James of Safari 365 deserves to be commended for all the effort, skill and talent he put into planning our (7 adults) family safari. We started out in Camp's Bay - hiking, mountain biking, touring the Cape, eating and drinking our way through Cape Town, Franshoek and Stellenbosh. Next we flew to Johannesburg. The accommodations at Arthol Place were PERFECT for our family - very attentive staff and incredible food! The JoBerg and Soweto tour was enjoyed by all 7 of us. Next - Four nights at Sabi Sabi Little Bush was great! We saw the Big Five after only one day, and added the Magnificent Seven before departing for Victoria Falls. Two nights worked well there as we really only wanted to see the Falls and enjoy a night out. Next we flew to Botswana for 2 nights each in Chobe and Okavango Delta. The helicopter ride between the two was a special treat. GREAT animal sighting as well. We loved the sunset Makuro canoe safari with so many elephants.
Each of the camps were well aware of the special dietary consideration of 2 of our family members. It was clear that Zannon had prepped all of our hosts. Every detail, from warm airport welcomes, easy transfers, very caring, friendly and professional staff made what could be an overwhelming process extremely easy and stress-free. Zannon listened to what was important to us and what wasn't and proceeded to tailor-make a most successful itinerary. We've been home 2 months and we're still on Cloud Nine!

Safari365 was outstanding; efficient, caring, friendly and knowledgeable staff.
We used Safari365 in 2016 and again in 2024 for our family adventures in South Africa, and both times, their service exceeded our expectations. We’re based in Australia and initially reached out to their Cape Town office via email. Our consultant, Zannon James, promptly addressed our safety concerns, incorporated our preferences, and organized a memorable South African experience for our family of five, including grandparents, parents, and our 9-year-old granddaughter, Poppy.
Zannon's expertise, combined with Safari365’s strong negotiating power and global reach, resulted in a well-curated journey at a reasonable price. Importantly, the price was quoted in AUD and remained consistent despite fluctuations in currency, and we were able to make the payment in Australia.
Safari365 also provided us with a personal concierge, Trevor Stoutz, who was available for our endless questions and made recommendations for hotel bookings, restaurants, and activities which were spot on. Trevor’s assistance proved valuable, and we enjoyed several dining options he suggested during our week in Cape Town; namely, La Colombe, Kloof Street House and The Chef’s Warehouse Beau Constantia.
During our stay at The Tintswalo Family Lodge in the Waterberg Reserve, we were impressed by the exceptional facilities, outstanding food and the excellent service. We came for the game and the drives were particularly noteworthy; our guide, Riian, expertly and safely showed us a wide range of wildlife from his open jeep, from ticks to majestic elephants. Poppy’s reaction—declaring that the safari experience was “better than Disneyland”—was a highlight for us as grandparents; Mission Accomplished; memories for life and all captured in a complimentary photo album. Thanks Safari365!!

Thank you, Safari365, Eliane and Trevor, for all your help putting together our trip. We had a wonderful time and are still talking about our experiences, and sharing our photos with friends.
The tented lodges were beautiful, the people of Tanzania were so friendly and fun, and the safari experiences were unbelievable!
Also, we highly recommend Albert, our guide. He was so knowledgeable, kind, fun and we loved getting to know him.

Excellence of service
My son and I did a 15-day self drive through the Garden Route (from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town), using the services of Safari 365 and I can't help but congratulate the professionals involved for the fantastic experience we had. From the initial contact with Ms. Eliane in Brazil, to the completion of the tour, I have nothing but praise to say. Ms. Eliane proved to be a dedicated professional, attentive, caring and always willing to clarify doubts (and there were many), review itineraries, adapt hotels (great choices), create suggestions, in short, everything necessary to guarantee a quality service suited to our needs. profile. I also cannot fail to thank and praise our concierge, Mr Frederik Lesch, who was always ready to help us in any situation. Therefore, I congratulate the company Safari 365 for the excellent work and for having such special people as those mentioned on its staff. Thank you Eliane, planning and carrying out our adventure through South Africa with you was rewarding and made our trip safer and more fulfilling.
