Feedback On Travel Company And Travel Experience

From landing in Cape Town to departing Johannesburg we enjoyed a non-stop whirlwind adventure. Table Mountain, Africa's Big Five in the first hours of the safari's, and the grandeur of Victoria Falls all were truly wonderful. The accommodations were excellent and the dining was exquisite. We experienced far more sights and sounds than we expected.

The entire trip was amazing and moreover, I was amazed to see the travel services and the accommodations provided by the travel company. Each private transfer and private guide arrived early and were waiting when we arrived. The lodge and hotel rooms and locations were to use one word, perfect.

At Kruger, we were at Jock Safari Lodge. Our room was more like a private chateau. It was totally separated and private. King size bed inside, a beautiful room. Outside, we had our shower (bathtub with shower inside), two lounge chairs and a private pool. Also, a queen size bed under a portico overlooking the bush where we saw elephants, giraffes, monkeys and I think impalas.

Food And Stay

The food was included and excellent. The Safaris, three a day, were led by a fully trained and personable ranger. We ended up seeing the big 7 and many more. This is the place to stay. At Hazyview, one night, we had a private cabin at Hippo Hollow overlooking the bush and allowed us to see elephants. At Victoria Falls we stayed at Ilala. On the way to meals, we saw a family of baboons, some warthogs, and other animals. We had a wonderful river cruise at Chobe National Park where we saw large herds of elephants and others. We then had a half day driving Safari. The only negative was the bad sandy roads, but we weren't driving, so no biggie. Victoria Falls was visible from our room. How is that for a view? It was more impressive up close. Now onto Cape Town. Be prepared for a party atmosphere. Great restaurants, bars, and shopping. But on this trip, so many meals were included. We spent the three days touring with the same guide and he was obviously very educated and knowledgeable. Oh, and friendly. We did the Cape Peninsula tour, a city, and Table Mountain and Wineland tours. Unfortunately, this was the end. We were treated like royalty throughout these two weeks. Our travel agency and their travel representative prepared the vacation of a lifetime for us. We couldn't be happier.
