Solo safari to South Africa? Yes please! I loved this experience and felt like the entire staff and tour team were so kind and warm. It was very noticeable and I appreciated the way everyone greeted us and wanted to ensure we had a good experience.
The food prepared for lunch, dinner and breakfast was delicious. Dinner was set up under the stars at the lodge where we stayed which was magical. I really appreciated the attention given to the presentation of the food and the overall balance of healthy options.
My room was incredible. It was clean, the AC worked great, the bedding was so comfortable (mattress and linens were excellent) and the shower was wonderful. I also appreciated the mosquito netting to add an extra layer of safety during the night from any bugs.
The pool and overall lodge layout was really nice and you could tell the grounds were well kept. I bring your bathing suit if you wanna take a dip.
The safari experience itself was unreal. Like any national park or outdoor experience, it’s unique and based on nature. I would go back in a heartbeat and was so grateful for the amount of wildlife we saw both at sunset and sunrise. The driver was knowledgeable and the experience overall was great. I really appreciated that we drove in different places in the park in order to optimize the chances of seeing new animals. A big shoutout to Sbu, the driver who took us safely to and from Johannesburg! He was delightful, made a great call to take a backroad when there was an accident, and was enthusiastic about doing a good job for us. I really enjoyed talking with him on the way to the lodge on the first day and loved the background he shared on the country.
Highly recommend this tour group and truly enjoyed my experience.
