Amazing first trip to South Africa 🌍 - Wow! What a beautiful country. What hospitable warm, decent people. We felt so welcome and cared for the way we used to feel in our country years back. It's sad the level of service in America's declined so precipitously. Beautiful beautiful place. Excellent food, Great prices. Beautiful coastline. Lovely views. Nice places to stay all reasonable. Amazing animals. Great wine. Only problem with the trip was it was 7 days long. Should have been a couple months. Thanks, Earthstompers, Nicole and Elroy for such an excellent vacation!!! Cannot wait to go back. Don't know why we waited so long.....

Incredible experience! - Cannot recommend this tour strongly enough – incredible experience both for first-time visitors to South Africa and those who have been before but want to see a new part of the country. I booked the "backpackers" accommodations but was impressed by everywhere we stayed, particularly the two nights spent on the farm accommodations. Our guide Christine was EXCEPTIONAL and truly went above and beyond to provide us with an excellent experience. She had plentiful personal recommendations and truly seemed to enjoy herself the whole trip. Plus, our tour happened to fall over New Years and my birthday, and she planned personal touches for us to help celebrate both. The vibes of our group were incredible as well and many of us immediately clicked. This tour is great for someone who wants to connect with friendly travelers from across the world. I will say, there was a lot of time spent in the car (particularly on the return trip from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town), but that's the nature of a trip like this, and there were many rest stops, viewpoints, and interesting commentaries throughout the trip. The van was comfortable enough to get some rest and even more importantly, because the other guests were so lovely, there was ample conversation throughout the ride.

Unforgettable South Africa!! - I would like to thank Earthstompers and especially our amazing awesome spectacular Tour Guide Roy for the unforgettable time on this 6-Day Garden Route Tour with Addo! We have learned so much about South Africa. It is hard to say what the best part was as we loved the whole experience. I would completely and totally recommend Earthstompers as a go to travel agency for visit to Cape Town and South Africa. They were professional and accommodating, ensuring our comfort was a top priority. Our 11yr old son was so thrilled and had such an unforgettable time that he did not want to leave. We hope to be able to come back some day. Thank you again!

The best trip! - We did the 6 day trip as 3 friends in their 30s. We have no experience of South Africa and wanted to do a tour where we didn’t have to think. This tour by eartstompers, was so well thought through, Christine our tour guide put so much energy and effort into everything we did! She made us feel incredibly safe and went above and beyond for us all. She told us stories and facts, it was clear she had a passion for her home country and also for helping people have a god time! Her energy is infectious. The places we stayed were authentic South African places with lovely staff, local food and were all clean. I couldn’t recommend this tour more and hope everyone goes on it and has the best holiday like we did!!

Best way to discover Western and Eastern cape - As a first timer in South Africa, and the African continent actually, having a great guide Rochelle G pretty set our trip to the highest level of discovery and adventure possible. As a family of 3 with individual likes and pursuits, she was able to deliver a very delightful and meaningful Garden Route tour from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth and present it to us in different perspectives. I dig history and architecture, my wife into local businesses and products while my son into the new experience and photography. Rochelle showcased South Africa with the best that it can be in that long, fun-filled drive along the stretch of the highway, often stopping along the route to shop, appreciate local food, talking to locals, climb mountains, visited heritage sites, name it and we did it. We ended up missing her a lot during the remaining days of our Cape Town return and consoled ourselves by visiting her recommended places of interest before heading back home.

Excellent, exceeded all expectations - An unrepeatable experience. Guide Gareth was wonderful, more than a guide was one of the group. Excellent explanations, super attentive for us all to enjoy. With the rest of the travelers a very good atmosphere was created and we had a lot of fun. Spectacular landscapes, activities and accommodation.

The best tour to see the infamous Garden Route! - Myself and 2 friends did this tour in November and had the BEST time! This tour covers all of the key parts of the Garden Route. Our tour guide, Christine, went over and above! She made everything easy, enjoyable but most importantly, fun! Thanks so much Christine. The variety of foods, experiences and accommodation are brilliant. It was the perfect way to see the garden route in beautiful South Africa.

South African Adventures - We have just returned from the 6 day garden route with Earthstompers. We had such a fabulous trip, everything was seamless. Gareth, our guide was brilliant. His knowledge of South African history and its geology was so in depth and it’s clear to see his love for the country he so enjoys showing to others. Some of our highlights are the little gems Gareth has sought out on his many trips; snacks stops a plenty with amazing homemade treats and locally sourced nuts and dried fruits! We would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanted to get a good flavour of what South Africa has to offer whilst enjoying a bit of adventure along the way. We’ll be back very soon SA! Thanks again Gareth!!! Lou & Rich

Amazing experience! - Amazing 6 days tour. I was a bit hesitant about spending 6 day with 9 other people I never met before. However, everyone turned out to be amazing and we all had an incredible time during the tour. Christine went above and beyond to show us as much as she could and always stayed on schedule for the next activity, her energy was amazing! Accommodations were super nice in beautiful places and the included meals were great! Definitely recommend it!
