Excellent Customer service, attention to detail. Amazing experience!
The conversation we had with Sandra from the beginning was quick, easy and tailor made. We managed to tailor made a package with Central Kruger (4 nights) + Cape Town (4 nights). Sandra was perfect to understand our needs and desires, and she helped from the beginning to offer the best deals possibile.
I will definitely reccommend Traipsing's services to anyone!

An excellent, professional and personal service from start to finish.
Sandra put together an excellent first safari for us at short notice at nThambo Tree Camp.
Communication was highly personal and with quick responses. Transfers were arranged with an excellent third party, who provided a brilliant and prompt service.
The safari itself surpassed all expectations, both in the quality of the lodge and of the service the staff provided.
It was a pleasure booking with Traipsing Africa and we will certainly be repeat customers in the future.

Excellent. They where always available during a difficult time during covid.l
We book a 3 night Safari for the time we arrive we treated like Kings & Queens till the we left. The food, accommodation and hosting was excellent. The Safari tours exceed our expectations every time we went out, our guide was excellent and did all he could to ensure that we got the maximum experience during our time on safari. Well done everyone

Trustworthy
Sandra was very dependable and quick to respond to my queries. Even throughout the pandemic she still assisted me and gave out options on how to move forward with our booking. All in all, my experience with traipsing was truly one of a kind and it was made possible by Sandra and her team. Thank you so much, and I look forward to another adventure with them!!

First a travel agent, now a friend! Thank you Sandra!
We were supposed to travel in July 2020, however of course due to Covid our trip had to be postponed for two years! Whilst this has been difficult, it has given us the pleasure of dealing with Sandra at Traipsing Africa for two years now and we would now consider her a friend.
From the moment we sent our initial enquiry, Sandra has been absolutely incredible. Full of knowledge and experience, and super keen to make our trip as memorable as possible. She handled our covid cancellations and rebookings with ease, and has always responded to any queries quickly on WhatsApp which is super convenient.
Overall, Traipsing put their customers at the forefront of their business and I am so pleased we chose to book our trip with them. We can't wait to finally get away to SA next year!

Wonderful service from Traipsing
Our arrangement with Traipsing stated in 2019 for accommodations in Sep 2020 but postponed to Sep 2021. Our contact was Sandra Nicol and she kept frequent contact with us and very efficiently arranged and changed our accommodations when Covid struck. Her communications with us were friendly, informative and efficient and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to others. During our journey in the last few days she has maintained that contact and gave us confidence and comfort for our trip. So thank you Sandra and Traipsing for a wonderful trip.

Unsurpassed Service and Support from Start to Finish
Traipsing Africa’s Safaris receives my highest recommendation. During the beginning stages of planning a trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe I quickly learned that it isn’t easy finding information about Zimbabwe safaris, communication can be slow, and booking online isn’t always an option. Enter Sandra from Traipsing who made everything so easy! Firstly, Sandra’s knowledge and expertise helped me narrow down the many options. Secondly, she was able to secure a special rate that allowed us to stay at the 5 star The Hide Camp in Hwange National Park. The Hide is utterly amazing and I would never have considered it thinking that it was out of our price range! Sandra made the payment process as simple and easy as possible. Sandra organized ground transportation and it was a seamless and comfortable journey to The Hide through Victoria Falls. Communication with Sandra was superb and she periodically checked in via email during the holiday just to see if there was anything she could assist with and there was!! There were so many unknowns and we had questions about travel and testing requirements during the COVID pandemic and Sandra being on the ground in South Africa was able to get us the information we needed. I have no doubt that our holiday was more amazing because of Sandra’s advice and suggestions! Having lived in South Africa I thought I could plan and book everything myself - I now would recommend to anyone traveling to Africa that they partake of the expertise a travel agent offers to enhance your adventure. I highly recommend Traipsing Africa’s Safaris and am so glad that we booked through them.

Amazing service
We were due to go on our honeymoon in April 2020. When we were researching, we emailed a lot with Sandra, who provided lots of recommendations and advice about the different places, and was generally really informative. When we had to postpone our trip due to Covid-19, Sandra was excellent in keeping us up to date with all of the options, replying to our emails really quickly and generally helping us out in what was a really stressful time. Her emails were always really upbeat and personal, which we really appreciated, and it felt like she really cared about helping us get the best for our honeymoon. I look forward to speaking with her again soon, and would not hesitate to book with Traipsing Africa, and particularly with Sandra, again.
