Well organised and efficient, great to deal with
Janien was very helpful and made sure our trip was well planned.
We had a great time, thanks to the entire team at Inverdoorn and of course Gems.

Very trusting and easy, great trip!
We booked a safari tour in Kruger National Park with Gems of Africa. The whole service from the begging was great. We expressed our ideas and were given many options and had several calls and e-mails back and forth to adjust the best option and the most comfortable prize-wise. Very quick responses and detailed explanations on every option. They were very helpful also once we had some desire to make the trip slightly cheaper and several ideas to accommodate that were proposed. Overall great service and very easy to reach out to them, felt very friendly constantly and secure. Would surely recommend to contract a trip with them and would happily do so myself with them again.
Our specific contact person was Janien.

Gems of Africa made our holiday extra special. Amazing experience end to end!
We used Gems of Africa to organise a tour to the Kruger National Park. The experience was first class! The pick ups from the airport were punctual and a massive thanks to Victor for safely getting us to our destination ahead of schedule. The lodge we stayed at (Mdluli Lodge) was incredible. Everything was perfect, from the safaris we went on, the staff, the food, the location and the friendliness of the staff. I can not fault it! Well Done! I would definitely recommend Gems of Africa!

Great Experience - Highly Recomend
I had an incredible safari experience at Botlierskop Private Game Reserve, all thanks to Gems of Africa Safari and Tours! Despite contacting them just a few days before, their team worked tirelessly to organize everything seamlessly and exceeded all expectations.
The safari itself was unforgettable, with game drives that allowed us to see lions, rhinos, giraffes, and more in their natural habitat. The guide was fantastic, and the accommodations at Botlierskop were both luxurious and close to nature.
A huge thank you to Gems of Africa Safari and Tours for their outstanding service and making this last-minute trip so special. Highly recommended!

3-Day Safari
We booked a 3-day Safari with Gems of Africa. It was our first Safari and we are now determined to go back. The communication was easy and very accurate. They always responded within a few hours, all their answers were detailed, accurate and easy to follow. They provided multiple options to chose from and their service (especially Mr. Mpho Thulo) was GREAT. We ended adding a driver service to and from the reserve and that ended as a great service as well.
The Safari we reserved (Mont Eco Game Reserve) EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS by far and was a great value for our money. The place is amazing, the service was excellent, the wildlife was a dream come true. We were promised the Big 5 and we got much more from very very close. Everyone we met at the reserve was delighted.
Overall, it was a wonderful experience and Gems made it all happen. They are highly reliable, pay attention to the small details and very responsive. We could not have asked for more.

Chris is a friendly attentive and knowledgeable driver
Having biked the tour in the uk we were extremely pleased with overall experience. Our driver (Chris) was reliable, attentive and very knowledgeable. The route was long but we had plenty of stops and information regularly shared by Chris helped the time pass quickly. He was also flexible and adjusted the route at times to take into account the desires of the passengers.

Five Stars
I had very high expectations of this trip and these were exceeded. From the time of our pick up from our hotel in Cape Town to being dropped back the next day, this was truly a trip of a lifetime. The accommodation was magnificent, the welcome genuine, the staff so friendly and knowledgeable. A welcoming drink was offered that allowed newly arrived guests to meet and chat informally. The food provided was of excellent quality and abundant. The tours were timed to allow guests relax first and then see the wildlife of which there was so much to see. I cannot believe the variety of wildlife we saw and how close we got to the animals. The evening tour was punctuated by a stop for sundowners where all guests could mingle informally again. That night the sky was perfect for our stargazing tour, provided by such knowledgeable guides. An early start the next day meant that we saw the wildlife getting ready to start their day, it was so natural. This trip oozed class and quality; I cannot recommend it more highly.
