No other place like it, scenic and nature oasis.
Rishen from MoAfrika was great! Was in communication with him constantly and he was very attentive and made our trip to Elephant Plains very special and unforgettable. If you need an agent to help you he is the man! Thank you!
Where do I begin! Elephant Plains exceeded our expectations and made or safari trip a dream come true. From the attention to detail in our rooms from the reception and housekeeping teams to the servers and chef for our meals, everything was exceptional. Carmen at the front desk especially made us feel welcome and definitely made everything much more fun for us. Now for the main event, game drives! Two game drives a day and every single one was different/exceptional! Sabi Sands really is a dream come true for big 5 sightings. Many said we would have to be lucky to see 1 Leopard, well we saw 5 different ones! What a beautiful animal. Our tracker Dion and guide/driver Nick were our team for the entire stay and they were phenomenal. Nic with his very informative with a splash of wit made every drive fun and enjoyable. Dion skills as a tracker were amazing, always on the lookout and they both even got us to see all the big 5 in one drive! With every drive you take a break for drinks and snacks. In the morning drive we had amazing coffee and in the evening we had great cocktails. The Lodge itself is amazing and clean. The dinner from chef Betty was some of the best food we have ever had! 10/10 food! We could not have asked for a better experience. My wife and I will never forget EP and this trip as it has instantly become a highlight of our life. Highly recommend EP 11/10 and we hope to come back soon!

Exciting
The experience was really wonderful. I would recommend for guided tours for both cities and safari. It is the safest way to travel. I would not recommend to travel without a guide as some areas are not safe such as Johannesburg and parts of Capetown. It isn't worth it to risk your safety. You will also see more and when you are traveling such a long distance it is definitely worth it

Amazing and beautiful country! One sentence could never capture all it has to offer ❤️
We were a group of 7. Our journey began with a 5 night safari through Khalanga Tours. Our guide, Shoes, was incredible. We went on a river cruise, and stayed in various campsites. This allowed us to experience the various landscaping, and thrill of seeing the big 5, and then some, in their natural habitat. We then travelled to Cape Town. A huge and diverse Metropolis, rich in history and culture. From there we booked wine tours, a walking “Taste of Africa”, where we experienced the foods from various African countries. We travelled to Cape of Good Hope and Simons town. Saw the penguin colony. With each tour we booked, the guides were knowledgeable, and eager to share the history and current progress of South Africa, the good and the bad. The landscape is breathtaking! The people are kind and friendly. I would highly recommend visiting South Africa. I fell in love with it ❤️

Our safari in South Africa was informative, and rewarding, all rolled into one fantastic trip.
Wild Planet Safari was our choice for the private, 9-day tour, which included a Panoramic scenic drive and 2 game drives per day. The animal viewing was spectacular. The Moholoholo Rehabilitation Center offered some animal viewing surprises and an informative education on the survival challenges for African wildlife. There were many opportunities for picking up that special momento of our trip at the lodges, town visits, or parking lot venues. While our group was over the age of 60. I recommend this trip to anyone who loves the outdoors, animals, and meeting people. And yes, bring the family.

Beautiful
My partner and I, along with 30+ other guests (wedding celebrations) booked a 2 night safari trip which was coordinated by Moafrika Tours. Everything was well organised and communicated well. We stayed at the Ivory Tree Lodge which was beautiful. We saw 4/5 of the big 5 almost every safari trip we took. It was great value for money- safaris, transport (which they adjusted timings in accordance with our flights), accomodation and all meals (delicious) included! Everyone had a fantastic time and some people are planning on returning too

Spectacular
I went on the Gems of Africa 3 day safari to inverdoorn and it was everything I imagined and more. The staff was attentive, the grounds and rooms were spotless, and the safari and guide was well informed and you could just tell how much he loved the wildlife and his job.

A wonderful country of contrasts and lovely people.
South Africa truly is a world in one country. The people are so hospitable and the food is wonderful and extremely generous. The wildlife has to be seen to be believed lions walking right by your jeep. Baby elephants being highly inquisitive. Life is very different when you get up at 5.00 am but you soon adapt. The weather in October was quite hot but we also experienced two phenomenal thunderstorms in the evening - spectacular. I can’t wait to go back for our fifth visit.

One of the most diverse beautiful countries I have ever visited
The scenery is out of this world , from the beautiful beaches, Table Mountain, Botanical gardens, Boulders beach, Wine country, garden route, Safari in Kruger. each experience was unique and highly recommended. Cape Town itself was a very cosmopolitan area with some of the best restaurants and food I have tasted.
On top of all of this you get so much more for your money! We will be back!

A safari is a must when in South Africa
We visited Cape Town first and stayed close to the new V&A development. Lots to see and do and lots of restaurants with superb mall. Moved to Hermanus and watched the whales frolicking in the sea just off the shoreline. No boat trip required. Then off to Kruger National Park. Private reserve in north of park called TOMORROW. Fantastic experience. Only 8 individual luxury units so only 2 tour cars. They share safaris with neighbouring private reserves and they all radio each other to get everyone the best experience. Our guide Gareth was unbelievable. He was friendly knowledgeable and spotted a lioness in the dark at over 30m away. How? No idea!! We saw all of the top 5 except Rhino. We saw a pride of lions just after they had hunted down a buffalo. Leopard being chased by a lioness who just climbed to the very top of the tree until she gave up. Gin and tonic out in the bush at sundown perfect. Food was gourmet level. Staff were outstanding. Thoroughly recommend this reserve for a fantastic time. We stayed 3 days 2 nights which was enough perhaps because Gareth enabled us to see the elephants leopards buffalo lions and cubs giraffes jackals hippos impala’s masses of different bird species and most importantly we did not have to queue at any time to watch the animals in their natural environment. Gareth was also very mindful of the environment we were in and took care not to intrude on the animals
