    This tour showed my a side of south Africa that I would have probably never been able to experience on my own. Thanks to the excellent tour guide Sim, everyone in the group felt well taken care of. I can definitely recommend it. Make sure that you understand the contiki principle and that most of the activities are not included. You can pick what you want to do and which activity you don't want to do. The accomodations where all great as well (last two nights are camping)!

    The trip was indescribably beautiful. We were able to see a lot of the country and had a great tour guide with lots of interesting information about the country and life there. The tour group was also absolutely great and we made lots of great friends. However, there are two negative points. Firstly, it would be great if the itinerary included an approximate distance or travel time between the individual stops. Some of the bus journeys were very long, even though our tour guide made them as entertaining as possible with his "talks" in between. In addition, the price of all activities is misleading... I am aware that the concept is based on modular activities, but there were many activities that you simply had to take part in so that the other travelers did not have any time disadvantages in their activities. It would be better to include more activities in the price, then you are less annoyed and have a better price overview right from the start.

    I had a lot of fun, I liked all the activities except the orphant Tour. It felt More Like a show- i had a bad feeling „Watching“. I would rather learn something about the history of the Place and the Backround of the kids to create More awareness. Cooking class, surfing, Kajak and Camping was the best Part.
