Traipsing through the desert of Namibia
All our emails were answered promptly before we departed; David constantly strived to update his messages and emails on his cell, wherever signal allowed it (showing us he tried his best to keep in constant contact with all queries and future travellers). Service was good, with the guide adhering to the itinerary. The Safari itself proceeded smoothly; the vehicle was reliable and clean and the guide's input to any and all questions was polite and informative. We were fortunate in being just the two of us, thus having personal attention. David's knowledge of the area, through which we travelled (Southern Namibia), was extensive, as it was his home Country. All meals were made via campfire or gas. David cooks enough to feed a small army, which led us to often jokingly monitoring his "portion control" and we did our best to eat 2nds, in order to "keep our strength up" (this became our own private joke, as he explained that cooking for only 3 people was almost impossible for him). His bobotie was exceptional, made with the aid of "Bridget's trivet"! His dexterity with regards to braa'ing and boiling goods on the gas braai brilliant. He packed and unpacked his bakkie with familiarity and ease. He kept up good humour, even when the harsh terrain got us a puncture. We were assisted by the friendliest farm owner, Hermien, who had the neatest, cleanest bathrooms at her campsite we had ever seen! She and her husband plugged and pumped up the back tyre in 10 minutes, so very professional and helpful. At every opportunity, David pointed out numerous sights and interesting facts about the terrain and upcoming towns. David is trustworthy, funny, informative and most of all, brilliant at what he does. We would book again with him in a heartbeat!

Amazing experience !
We received all the necessary information from Adventour.
Our driver (Tom) who took us to Kruger and back to Johannesburg was very friendly and nice all the time, providing all the assistance we needed.
The lodge was OK, nice swiming pool and friendly staff, breakfast and dinner at the lodge was very tasty - I would only suggest a better breakfast bag (you to take with you to the Safari), bread was dry and practically no filling in it. The day safari at Kruger park was nice, we could see all the big-5 but the leopard (which was already expected), and apart from that many other animals living inside the area. I was an amazing experience, got a little concerned when learned that there was no gun in the vehicle, just in case a lion decides to jump in...

David was excellent and looked after our every need
Safari tour was very good - unfortunately tour guide (who to be fair to Adventour was new and on trial - so perhaps will not be there for future travellers) was not as enthusiastic or engaging as we would have hoped for a holiday that is only something that most people do maybe only a few and possibly only once in a lifetime. That is why the rating is 4 rather than 5 star.
David however was excellent and absolutely committed to customer service and ensuring we had a great time. His knowledge and attention to detail was second to none.
We did see lots of animals including the big 5.

Good trip
The schedule was perfect, the driver very kind and aware of your well being until the last time. The lodge was very big,clean, luxious, just a little poor wifi in my room. The breakfast and diner nice and all the people over there were interesting, very kind and fun. The kruger park is nice but don't expect to see each animal if they don't want to be see.I didn't regret the panorama tour, it's worth the price to see the Blyde canyon. That's right you can do it by yourself but it's nice also to have everything taken care of, and talk with local people who can explain you a lot of things.

Fantastic trip!
The shuttle service arrived on time in our hotel in Johannesburg. Bonnieface was realy friendly and was our personal driver to the Kruger. He told us nice stories and facts about the buildings/landscapes/animals that we saw near the highway. The safari tent was big enough and clean. The two safari tours with Pete were fun and it was nice to see all the animals. We have almost seen the big 5(!) but it depends when and where you enter the parc. The extra tour (when we went back to the airport) rewarded to profit of the beautiful landscapes.
In addition, the communication by mail with David was realy good and explicit.
