Everything's amazing - 100% recommend - I enjoyed the entire trip to the fullest with Christine as our guide and small group of 5. Christine is amazing, very friendly, open and takes great care of us. The itinerary is well plan with a great mix of different activities for all. I was the only one who booked the backpackers dorm sharing option and got lucky since it was off-peak and they gave me an "upgrade" which was very much appreciated 😊 The accoms were all very comfortable, some had heated mat while others had fleece blanket which is very much required during winter. Breakfast and dinner were delicious too. Last but not least, it's value for money given the quality of food, accoms, guide and activities included. Itinerary is not too rush and I'd recommend to take the backpackers option - you can choose the ensuite version if you prefer privacy. Would 100% recommend 👍

With Earthstompers on the Garden Route – The highlight of our South African trip - We participated as a couple in the 6-day safari along the Garden Route with Earthstompers – and it was definitely the best decision to make this trip. As newcomers to South Africa, we felt well looked after from the start. Our questions were answered quickly and competently in advance, and the entire booking went completely smoothly. Our guide Gareth was great. With his expertise and friendly, calm manner, he brought us closer to the region. He is also an excellent driver. The Garden Route is a true paradise. Every day had its own highlights. Canoeing and hiking were also well done for us with average fitness. The overnight stays in the guest houses were charming and comfortable throughout – it was a real shame that we could only stay for one night at a time. The dinner together was always excellent. We also got to know the backpacker accommodations and they were also very good. An absolute highlight for us were the safari tours in Addo Elephant Park. We had booked the morning safari and it was simply impressive to see the animals in their natural habitat. The trip was the perfect mix of adventure, nature and relaxation. You experience and learn so much more than if you travel the route alone as a self-driver. This trip was worth every penny – we can 100% recommend it! Astrid and Matthias

Wonderful vacation - The tour was amazing! It showcased the beauty of South Africa. I was there in June. Even though it was during low season, it was still beautiful. All the accommodations exceeded my expectation. We had so much fun! It makes me want to come back to South Africa again! Our guide Christine was always energetic and attentive to everyone's need. Highly recommend the tour!

Great small group tour highlighting the region between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth - This was an excellent tour. Gareth was a great guide explaining area we travelled through and pointing out places of interest. Guest house accommodation was excellent and by all accounts the backpackers rooms with private ensuites was just as good. The dinners were much better than expected and we loved that traditional South African meals were served. We stopped at some fantastic little unique cafes, farms, stalls and towns. Gareth took great pleasure in describing the various treats that were on offer at each place. Highlight was the kayaking, forest walk and swimming at the falls.
