best trip ever with Chris - We came all the way from Korea as newlyweds on our honeymoon trip to South Africa. Chris was truly the best tour guide we could have asked for! He made sure every part of our journey was safe and thoughtfully planned. We learned so much about South African history that we didn’t know before. Chris always made us feel like a priority, and his kindness brought us so much positive energy — it truly made this trip unforgettable for us. Thank you so much, Chris! Baie dankie!

So much to see, and we saw SO much! - we had a great trip with our guide Mawande. the attractions were simply wonderful, we were able to spend enough time at each sight - but not too much time to get bored - and Mawande explained many interesting facts about the regions we visited. The Game Reserve was fantastic - could have stayed there a full week! We had a great time...

Fantastic trip - I had a fantastic 4-day trip along the Garden Route, and it truly exceeded our expectations! We managed to pack so much into a short time, and our guide, Mawande, made the experience unforgettable. His knowledge is exceptional, and he brought each location and attraction to life with fascinating stories. From the charming seaside towns to the thrilling game drive, to the unforgettable experience of seeing elephants and zip-lining – every day was a new adventure. We loved every moment of this trip and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore this beautiful region!

One of a kind, Garden Route tour adventure - Hi my name is jack, and I absolutely loved this tour! This Adventure created a lot of fun and life long memories. My tour guide Mr Vaughan was an absolute legend. He was very fun and enjoyable to be around. We had a very challenging group for him, but he was able to problem solve and make everybody happy throughout the trip. From walking with the big elephants to petting a wild cheetah. And also doing the world’s highest bungee jump. This tour had a ton of fun excitement!!! Highly recommended 100% and would do again in a heartbeat!

Four day Garden Route experience - Great guide Mawabde de who was very knowledgeable and gave us great insights into S African history and a lot of information about the area The accommodation on first night was lovely and a lot of nice touches but no view which was a shame as thats what the Garden Route is about.The restaurant was great..good value and good atmosphere Second night accommodation in Stormy River Village was average and tge meal was in a “ back room” and would have been better in a restaurant with a view. Garden Route Safari…great accommodation and great guide for Safari on which we saw everything we expected. Would have been nice to have more time there before game drive. Overall a good taster..a lot of driving and the first two nights accommodation would have been better somewhere with views . Highlights.Garden route lodges snd safari/good guide/views on drives

Garden Route - The tour was good but the tour guide/bus driver was 90% bus driver. We really did not learn much about what we saw
