The experience in Kruger was fantastic, seeing many animals in their natural surroundings. Moyaney and elias were both fantastic. The area we covered was amazing with lots of differet experiences. Sani pass was terrifying but a must do on the trip. Not on the list again. Seeing how people lived in eswantini, lesotho was humbling. The school vist was beautiful. Education has to be paid for which makes a significant difference to childrens futures. The food was mostly good, but dud not like the maize mash, it an acquired taste. There was an alternative. What an amazing shepherds pie we had. 10 out of 10 Moyaney. St Lucia ia memorable fir accomodation, hippos and alternative activities. I would love to have stayed longer. Such a wonderful mix of destinations, camp sites etc, a once in a lifetime trip. Durban was a let dow. Organisation was great, drives at times long but with a good group, music and laughter it was ok. I would have loved more 2 night stays.

The perfect southern African tour, the trip had a lot of varying activities which made each and everyday exciting. Make sure you ask for Sam as your guide, I have never met a more kind and caring human in my life. Went above and beyond for us clients each and every day! I’ve done plenty of tours in Africa but this one was definitely my favourite so far! I highly recommend

We were very well looked after and with Pete and Francis we had both a great guide and a safe driver. Whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner, it was always tasty and varied. The trekking and excursion tours were well organized and varied.

I had a great time. Sam and Angus were both great at their job. First two nights accommodation was too good to be true. Itenry was well planned. Loved the balance between free time activities.

The communication with acacia via TourRadar was not the best. We have received the most important information just 10 days before start. The extra costs for the adventure pass were not transparent. We were the guinea pigs for the trip to Mosambik and we have paid the full price. Our guide Sam did a great job. I felt save the whole time. I would recommend Sam to everyone. He is the best guide!

Sadly, I cannot recommend this tour. For slightly more money, other operators are providing a much better experience particularly in terms of the condition of the safari vehicle, quality of the meals provided and leadership and guidance on the part of the touring crew. Joining instructions, while detailed are somewhat out of date. On a positive note, communications with the parent organization were quick and helpful.

The trip overall was wonderful for what it was described as. It is camping, but the facilities were great condition and I was pleasantly surprised. We stayed at great locations and saw many great sites. The main guide Justin made a big difference in adding to the joy of the trip. He was a great communicator, chef, guide, animal spotter, and funny. Our driver was also great (i don't have right spelling but think something like Savius). The long drives were tough some days, but we covered a lot of ground and it comes as expected. it was a fun adventure and we had many wonderful experiences out in God's creation. The overland truck/bus that we used was a little worn down, but nothing too bad. We were comfortable. The food was really delicious, especially the dinners, and had good variety for dinner. The breakfasts and lunches got tiresome and were pretty repetitive, but oh well. That is my main critique, wish we had a few meals to eat out on the road and it would be quicker and less cleanup. Thank you all

Aaron was an awesome guide. Great driver, advisor and now friend. He made our trip the best which is a task considering the roads we travelled. I would suggest that you are more transparent with park fees. Having been on tour I absolutely understand the cost but with it being considerable - people need to budget for it. So itemise the parks, tolls etc needing fees and put it with the tour cost.

Was only 4 of us, started off strong, Kruger experience was amazing, Zimbabwe was good, Botswana had highs and lows but was the least cohesive part.
