- MCmichael· May 25th, 2024We enjoyed he tour. The guide, Wayne, was excellent and the organisation impeccable. We would have enjoyed more cultural experiences and additional rest days as a number of journeys were exceedingly long.Show moreTrip date: May 2024
- Kathryn· March 23rd, 2020This tour gave an excellent chance to see and experience the top sites of South Africa. It entails a lot of driving, but that is the best way to understand the range of this country. The guide was knowledgeable, experienced and very capable. The hotels were superb. The itinerary interesting and fun. I would highly recommend this 15 day tour.Show moreTrip date: March 2020
- AHAdam· November 2nd, 2019This was my first bus tour so I was bit surprised by how much time we spent travelling on the bus. Nearly every morning we were on the bus by 8am or earlier and did not arrive at most of our destinations until 4pm . I saw a lot of South Africa which was great as there is a lot to see and overall we travelled approximately 4,300 kilometres. The optional excursions of Kruger and Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park are a must as you will see very little if you go in the bus. The tour company issues a travel journal / booklet with some help hits and advice. The one disappointing issue for the group was the tipping section of the booklet. It said 'Guides travelling with the group expect about R100 to R150 per person per day'. Firstly the word 'expect' should be changed to 'generally appreciate' or something similar. Secondly this tip is high when we asked around (usually R50 per day) and can be a lot if a family is travelling. Finally the group decided to do a collective tip so no one felt under pressure to pay the higher amount and the guide was not happy we were doing it that way. He wanted everyone to give it to him individually.Show moreCullinan Guided Journeys commented on this reviewGood Day, Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback.
