Booking was easy and tour operator was very responsive to our questions.
5/5

Service was great, Douglas was awesome. Prepare for bugs, as mosquitos were in our room at the lodge, and AC wasn’t very cold. Food at the lodge was very good and our safari guide, Lucky, was amazing. We saw 4 of the big 5 (plus many many other animals) within Kruger. We were fortunate enough to see the 5th at a rest area that had a small preserve on our route to and from Kruger. I highly recommend taking the Panorama route, it is extremely worth it. The days are long but worth it.

They fulfilled everything they promised
5/5

Excellent driver (Thanks Tom!), Punctual and helpful. Interesting accommodation, with excellent food (could improve the Internet service). The vehicle to travel Kruger could be better (it was the oldest in the park), but it is understood, because we were in a Budget Safari. On the way back we did the Panorama Drive as an extra, and it was very good. We saw 4 of the big 5 in 1.5 days of safari, which is not bad. As a general experience, it is highly recommended because of the cost-benefit ratio.

Excellent Safari Experience
5/5

The trip was very well organized. The airport shuttle with Tom worked very well and I felt safe and comfortable all the time. All the staff of the lodge were very friendly and attentive. The room was clean and well equipped with air conditioning. The safari experience itself was amazing, we saw the big five and other interesting animals. The Panorama Tour with Tom was a blast and I can highly recommend it.

Wonderful time at Krueger game, but some issues with the logistics
3/5

We had a great time in South Africa, really beautiful Country, we had the best Safari we could have with the guide Mr. Lucky Mathebula, we saw see all the big five with him, he was simply the best. The Lodge (accomodation) was really good as well, the owner was a sympathic lady and the food was good.

But on the other hand we had some issues with the Bonnie, the guide that took us from Joanesburg to the Park and back to Joanesburg.

He got late to pick us up in the hotel to get to Krueger so we didn´t have time to have lunch, we had to eat our pizzas on the way to the Park! Also, he didn´t make any effort to be nice when he was joining dinner with us. When returning from the Park to Joanesburg, he drove fast and it was rainning a lot, a lot of accidents on the road, it was really tense.

And to complete, he charged us 300 Rand each to see the Panoramic route, when the offered from Adventour was 250 Rand per person. We felt really disappointed and betrayed.

I explained all the above to Mr. David (my contact at Adventour), he apologysed and said he would make a refund to amend the situation. We are still waiting the refund, his last promise was to make it today.

8 Day Kruger and Cape Town
5/5

Our tour started as we were picked up by Thom at our hotel. He was great, punctual, respectful and trustworthy. He drove for 5hours from Johannesburg to Kruger- quite a task, but he made it enjoyable, highlighting different sites of interest. The safari game drives were well organised, and all meals at the lodge were exceptional. We unfortunately didn't get to do the Panorama Route because of protests, but we went to the Mac Mac falls where we got great deals on souvenirs! We then did the caves which were great. Thom heard we didn't get to see any big cats at our game drive, so he went above and beyond, taking us to a lion park.
Our Cape Town trip was so well organised. We had the absolute best tour guide Kathy! She was so knowledgeable, so passionate about what she does, and so patient! We never ever felt rushed- we were able to take our pictures- she ensured we got to go up to Table Mountain, by checking the weather before hand and tweeking the schedule- we appreciated everything she did as she kept our interests in mind. We enjoyed every minute of Cape Town thanks to her and also we had such awesome accommodation at StayEasy City Bowl with great breakfast! We would highly recommend this tour!

This is our first time to South Africa and we only have limited time to tour the country. David did an excellent job helping us to arrange the itinerary and maximize our visit. We have a wonderful experience and look forward to our next trip back to explore the rest of this beautiful country!

Beyond All Expectations!!!!!!
5/5

David is the BEST!!! He replied to all emails within 12 hours, was accommodating to our travel plans, was very knowledgeable about the area and surrounding eSwatini. He was on time to pick up us and was very personable while we were traveling from place to place. I am planning another trip to South Africa next summer and will absolutely be calling on David and Adventour to assist me with my adventures. I cannot say enough about the positive experience we had with Adventours!!!!!! ***I feel as though David went the extra mile, literally, to help us get to our destination!

Awesome Experience of Kruger National Park
5/5

We had an absolutely wonderful time on our 4-day, 3-night camping safari at Kruger National Park. David, our main guide, was super friendly and knowledgeable with years of experience. The campsite he found for our camping trip was incredible, nice and secluded at the nearby Marloth Park. We could hear lions roar at night and had giraffes come through our campsite. The bathroom at the campsite was very nice with a great outdoor shower and warm water- good after a long game drive. David cooked us amazing dinners at our campsite fire and was kind to accommodate my vegetarian diet well. Our two guides during out game drives were both awesome- friendly, enthusiastic and full of knowledge about the animals. I would recommend at least 2 full days of the game drives to increase your chance of seeing a wide variety of animals. We were blown away by the amount of animals we saw! David's truck for the longer drive to and from Johannesburg was comfortable and clean and he was nice to stop along the way as we needed. Overall highly recommend this company and the 4-day tour option!
