The trip was excellent overall. Our tour director Margaret George was brilliant, knowledgeable and exceptional director in total control. The drivers were Maxwell and Joe. Their demeanor skills and friendliness was beyond reproach. Accommodation was very good. 1 or 2 of the hotels are in need of updating. Meals provided were good. The tours achieved their aims. Big 5 were seen. Would recommend it. One note of caution on home bound flights please arrange to be in Johannesburg early. You may be pushed to get through to your flight in 3 hoursShow more
