It was perfect, nothing to worry about.
We did a 8 days safari with William and it was perfect.
He always came with good ideas to do in between de morning and afternoon gamedrive, like Jessica the hippo en the cheetah project and for everything a came with a good solution.
After 8 days we had a problem with the next hotel and he had immediately solved it en stayed with us until we leave SA and we even did a excursion to Soweto and Pretoria.
We can recommend everyone to go to Cook’s Air Tours&Safaris it will be a perfect holiday and you have nothing to worry about.
Thanks and with love,

Excellent tour guide - 100% recommend
We didn't actually experience the "air" part of Cook's Air Tours & Safaris, but rather had William Cook as our guide for a driving tour of the Panoramic Route and Greater Kruger in South Africa.
William was a fantastic guide; knowledgeable, extremely helpful and a genuinely nice and polite guy. The tour was very well planned and scheduled, but still with enough time that we never felt rushed from place to place, and could do extra activities as desired. With his local knowledge and years of experience he had some great suggestions and advice for sightseeing and activities.
Throughout our 5 nights on tour he maintained excellent customer service and was attentive to our needs. It was so good to have a guide who is passionate about what he does and can enjoy the experiences with you. This is especially important for rare trips like these (we came from Australia and may not be able to do a big holiday like this for a couple of years).
We felt that we were in great hands with William. We learned a lot and made a friend, and would highly recommend him to anyone traveling to this part of the world.

A wonderful safari experience - professional, efficient, friendly and fun!!!!
This was our first safari experience for my husband and myself. From the moment of booking this tour to the very end, it was as described in my sentence!!! Keith, our driver, was wonderful. He was extremely informative and a has a wealth of knowledge - most definitely someone who has a lot of pride for his country and this is the type of person you want as a tour guide. In the end, we felt he was like a friend. In addition, the accommodations, booking arrangements, tours, food, staff, game drivers, etc. etc. were excellent. I will definitely recommend this tour to my friends. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Best Private Air Tours in South Africa
William Cook of Cook's Air Tours & Safaris is one of the most knowledgeable pilot guides that Capture Africa Tours has had the pleasure of working with. William Cooks knowledge of South Africa whether it be the history of Cape Town, or life in the bush is incredible. You won't need guide books or maps when your're traveling with him. William is a very experienced pilot who can get you in and out of any area as long as the runway is certified and is long enough. This was the deal breaker for Capture Africa Tours. We needed to get in and out of different locations that are only accessible by light aircraft and Cooks Air Tours could accommodate us. William is a very easy going person and always ready to help whenever and wherever he can. Do not hesitate to use William and his company....you will not be disappointed.

I thought their dedication to my experience was second to none.
I had an absolutely awesome time, I experienced 6 full days of awesomeness, I must just say that it might have been a full five star rating if we had a little less scheduled to be able to relax for a day or so.

Holiday of a lifetime!
We have heard a lot of stories regarding safari's and guided tours but have to say that this trip exceeded all of our expectations.
The tour itself was very interesting and informative but all done in a relaxed and enjoyable way. We were lucky enough to see a wide variety of wildlife and learnt a lot about the surrounding's.
Would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a relaxed but fun holiday for all of the family.

Private tour to Kruger with my wife and a colleague. Great guide and so well organised.
Our trip with William exceeded all our expectations. He was patient, knowledgeable, extremely well organised and was a joy to travel with. William's selection of lodges was very cost efficient but all the lodges were very comfortable and food was good throughout. We toured Kruger in William's 4x4 - very comfortable. William is a very careful driver and our safety and well being were a high priority for him at all times.
We felt that the safari was great value for money and we would recommend William and his team very highly. We have travelled extensively and this was the best tour program we have ever encountered.
