3.5-Day Best of Garden Route and Addo Safari

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 221 reviews · 5 days · from $675

Guides such as Isaac, Uriel, TK, and Denver are known for strong local knowledge and careful driving.

“The tour covered a lot of ground and a lot of different environments. The hotels used (comfort level) were mostly good but some were in locations fairly remote from town centres. This had the advantage of security but meant that transport was needed to dinner; in most cases this was provided by the tour bus. Unfortunately we had rain in Addo but the (optional) safari on the last day made up for this with a wide range of wildlife (including a group of cheetahs feasting on thier kill).”

“Overall it was a great tour, could never fit in what we did without an excellent drive, Rahul and Rahul the man on the phone in constant contact with our drive, ensuring everything was going to plan. My suggestion to improve the tour would be to reduce or set an expectation before taking us to visit suppliers/ experts. As the current assumption appears to be that we will buy goods at every visit. when a purchase is not forthcoming the guide and suppliers are visibly disappointed. This can leave a sour not as we felt constant pressure to buy.”
