We did the Absolute 11 week safari from Nairobi to Cape Town and it was the most amazing experience. The itinerary exceeded all our expectations. It is jam packed adventure everyday! Yes, there are very long days on the road but the scenery certainly helps to make it enjoyable. The staff were professional and would bend over backwards to ensure everyone was getting the most out of their experience. The tour is excellent value for money and we enjoyed the group cooking and duties which enables it to remain affordable. Africa is incredible, it gets into your soul and the memories and friendships created will last a lifetime.Show more

Outstanding tour. 77 days and every day delivered. This tour has been going for 30 plus years I believe and the schedule is as good as it could possibly be. All my expectations were exceeded and fear’s unfounded. It is the best value company operating and for the best of reasons. I enjoyed the group cooking, rather than it being staffed. They added to great group dynamics and because everyone did thier best the food was great! Plenty of variety. I enjoyed the camping with high quality tents and good sleeping mats. The nature of the tour also means that you are almost guaranteed travellers that will pitch in and are his humoured to boot.Show more
