The tour was excellent, the only negative comment is that we were cramped in the truck . 14 persons for 14 seats with some seats with no leg rooms. The driver/ guide was excellent but I was surprised he was alone. A lot of work ( driving/ organizing, guiding, ) for 1 person
Discover Namibia - LodgesGreat trip. Everything was well organised and planned. Food was nice, truck was comfortable. A lot of wildlife, great views and a lot of emotions. Definitely can recommend this tour.
Okavango ExperienceWe had a lovely trip with Cynthia and Nock. They really looked after us and made us feel welcome showing us around there home country. We loved zambia and this tour made it extra special.

Best time to visit Africa
- Summer 2026
Summer's the time when the Great Migration is in full flow and our Serengeti tours really shine. You'll spend three nights camping right in the park - there's nothing quite like waking up to wildebeest, zebras and also gazelles moving past your tent. Our longer overland journeys mix this incredible wildlife show with time at Lake Malawi, gorilla tracking in Uganda's misty forests and boat trips on the Chobe River watching elephants play in the water. Several routes let you meet the Black Mambas, South Africa's first all-female anti-poaching unit, who share real stories about modern conservation work.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn offers Africa's top safari experiences, especially across Southern Africa where wildlife viewing hits its peak in the dry conditions. Our 40-day overland journeys from Nairobi to Cape Town shine during this season, with TourRadar customers spotting big cats, rhinos, elephants and also wildlife more easily through sparse vegetation. The premium safari routes in Kruger National Park take full advantage of clear nights with evening game drives to lit waterholes, where elephants and hippos gather for their nightly drinks. Longer expeditions blend prime wildlife viewing with local connections - you'll join expert guides tracking rhinos on foot in Matobo National Park, spend time with San communities in the Kalahari, and participate in anti-poaching patrols in Zambia. Our travelers tell us autumn's mild temperatures make gorilla trekking more pleasant in Uganda's misty forests, while in the Okavango Delta, receding waters draw wildlife to permanent channels, creating perfect conditions for mokoro canoe safaris.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
Winter in Africa offers excellent wildlife viewing, especially across Southern Africa where animals gather at waterholes during the dry season. Our 40-day trips from Nairobi down to Cape Town really come into their own now - TourRadar customers tell us they love how easily they spot big cats and rhinos with less vegetation around. The premium safaris include evening drives at Kruger's lit waterholes, where elephants and hippos often come for their nightly drink. Many routes take you walking with skilled trackers in Matobo National Park, getting surprisingly close to both black and white rhinos in their natural habitat.

- Spring 2027
Spring brings Africa's landscapes to life, with our TourRadar customers particularly loving the 30-40 day overland expeditions during this season. The longer routes from Nairobi to Cape Town let you catch the dramatic contrasts, from tracking gorillas in Uganda's misty forests to watching elephants gather at Chobe's waterholes. Our travelers consistently highlight how spring offers perfect conditions for mokoro canoe safaris in the Okavango Delta and walking with local San guides in the warming Kalahari. Safari groups tend to be intimate with 8-12 people, which proves ideal for activities like learning traditional crafts in Tanzania's Usambara Mountains or joining anti-poaching units on patrol in Zambia. The cultural connections become especially meaningful in spring - you'll share meals with Maasai families, work alongside women's cooperatives that transform poacher snares into jewelry and also discover age-old traditions in Zimbabwe's rural villages while the weather is mild and pleasant.
