Review about South Africa by Gareth
South Africa and the national parks here are some of the best that I've been to ... they're untouched and wild, and the people that frequent them have respect for one another and the environment which they're in.

We had an amazing time, I would not call it a holiday more an amazing adventure.
Rob is one of the most incredible guys ever, he is a walking encyclopaedia on every animal bird tree or plant in Botswana . His team of staff are amazing there food and hospitality were the best .
The wild life we saw and we have been quite a few times on different safaris surpassed all our expectations, cannot recommend Rob and his team enough.

Fantastic
We went to Africa on our honeymoon and Marianne really did make it the trip of a lifetime! Through every step of the planning she was thorough, helpful and organised. She listened to what we liked doing and what we wanted out of the trip and made some fantastic suggestions. She was so enthusiastic, answered all our questions and sent through a lot of really helpful information.
The trip itself ran extremely smoothly. Everything was well organised and really easy on our part. We went to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. The lodges were fantastic and the whole trip was better than we could have imagined.
We can't thank Marianne enough for all she did and are so glad we decided to book through her. We would definitely use her again and will recommend her to all our friends and family.

Real safari experience!
Always remember the perfect amount of days to visit Kruger is n+1!
You can't get enough of the wildlife, landscape and peace of mind

Met my expectations
The travel consultant provided consistent communication and responded to our questions and requests in a timely manner. The safari was professionally managed and the lodging met my expectations. The food provided at Tydon Safari Camp was great and they accommodated my request for vegetarian meals. I felt completely safe and learned a great deal from the well-trained and friendly guides.

Best Safari EVER!
Every part of this experience beat my expectations. ACZ Safaris is absolutely a dream to plan with. They are wonderful.

Jeff's 70th Birthday African Adventure
The planning after we provided some must dos was spot on with provision of detailed itinerary, information on the countries we would be visiting, health requirements etc. Any questions were answered promptly. The safaris themselves were different as one was Davisons Camp in Hwange, Zimbabwe and the other was Katana in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. Both Camps were very efficiently run and provided very good service with expert guides and we managed to spot a large number of game including 4 of the big 5, only missing out on the Rhino. Encompass via their local staff had a birthday cake arranged on the Blue Train and at Katana as well as a welcoming bottle of birthday champagne. The trip was exceptional and we would not hesitate to recommend Encompass as a safari organiser and would use them again if we get the opportunity.

Excellent service, highly recommended
I would highly recommend Cardboard Box Travel Shop to anyone planning a trip to Namibia. Our consultant Norelle was fantastic and responded quickly to any queries that we had. Our bookings were handled very efficiently and Norelle made helpful suggestions and provides useful advice. Also, providing a local SIM card for us to use in Namibia was a nice touch and again very helpful. Overall I find it hard to find any fault with their service. Highly Recommended.

Great staff and teriffic website - we would highly recommend www.namibian.org for Namibia travel
The Cardboard Box website is one of the best travel platforms we have ever come across and we have already told many people about the site. We couldn't have had a better consultant than Anita. She was always very professional and responded to our queries/requests immediately. Her enthusiasm was extremely motivating for us and we were so excited about our trip from the moment we had our first contact with Anita.
We had a wonderful experience dealing with the Cardboard Box. Our first contact with Anita was more than one year before our trip started and we were convinced by Anita from the beginning. She is a real asset to the Cardboard Box Travel Shop

A nice 6 days safari that went over our expectations
There were very few communication in the preparation of this safari and I think is the only negative aspect. Wildebeest should provide more info from the moment the payment for safari is made (maps, infos on the the different parks, etc.). Once the safari began everything went well, we had to ask where we were going to go but the answer were clear. We saw all the places we wanted to see and the lodging was more than we had expected.
We would recommend Wildebeest.
Thank You
