One of the best trips EVER!
Overall rating
5/5

Kruger National Park was amazing. We did a sunset drive and an all day drive and saw SO many animals, including lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, a leopard, baboons, warthogs. It truly is an incredible experience to see the animals in their element like that, and it's even more fun for it to be a surprise about what animals you will end up seeing. Norman was amazingly accommodating, and made everything easy, including travel to and from Johannesburg, booking our hotel and game drives and telling us about the people and culture of South Africa. This trip was life changing, and I highly recommend it to anyone thinking of doing so!

Vast and beautiful with very diverse people and wildlife.
Overall rating
4/5

South Africa was our family dream trip. Seeing the animals in their natural environment while on the safari was the highlight of our trip. It was very majestic. But everywhere you ride in South Africa from Johannesburg to Kruger to Cape Town all you see is vast and beautiful scenery all around. It also has a great deal of diversity among the people there. Beautiful mountains, canyons with rivers/streams, waterfalls, etc. I recommend that everybody comes at least once in their lifetime if they can.

Incredible nature
Overall rating
4/5

The safari was great. Everything is according to the program as described. The staff in the lodge and the ranger were friendly. During the 2,5 days of the safari, we saw the big five and many other animals. The prices on the website were at least 30% more expensive in comparison to the prices for tours that could be booked in the lodge directly. So, the tours at the travel agency may be reduced.

Amazing country with astounishing wild life. Totally worth the visit if you haven't been there. Going on a safari is an experience on it's own.

Majestic
Overall rating

We had a great experience at Aquila. I would highly recommend the 2-night stay to anyone wanting to fit in a short safari while staying in Cape Town. The 2 night is necessary to have the full day of relaxation, hang at the lodge, lay out and the pool and chat with guests from other places, visit the spa, and overall unwind. I found the menu to be great for carnivores and vegans alike. Everything about South Africa made it an ideal travel destination and we hope to return.
