    Our driver KT was amazing. His exceptional knowledge on culture, demography and even botany took away the monotony of the endless miles from Capetown. He looked after us from the beginning of the tour right until the moment we said our goodbyes. I rate him 5*The walk with the elephants 5* The safari5*. I thoroughly enjoyed my time on this tour😍

    Uriel, the guide, was incredible. He was attentive, informative, and just a pleasure to ride with to the 2 safaris. The tent camping at Buffelsdrift game reserve was top notch. The safari guides were great too! If I could give 10 stars I would. Thanks for a truly memorable experience!

    Hi Tour Radar, We travelled with your tour guide ‘Maudi’ on your 2 day Tour Radar trip to the Buffelddrift game lodge on 4th and 5th November. Mordi was an excellent host and driver and kept everyone entertained throughout the whole trip. He was very knowledgeable about the sights we were seeing on the way there plus what was coming up at the Game Park. Our travel group bonded very well under Mordi’s good humour and inspiration even to the last customer being returned to their home base after the tour. We recommend Mordi as an excellent asset for your company tours and we highly recommend him. We highly recommend his participation in making any of your tours a great success. Yours Sincerely Glenn Flintrop and Neil Burton.

    This was totally worth doing the trip. We did the elephant experience and the safari there the first day, with the bigger safari the second day. Our friends had those days reversed so be aware that it can be either way. If you do the big safari the first day, you may be a little disappointed in the smaller one so little one the first day is best if you can confirm it. The elephant experience may have been the best part, so do that too! Upgrade the room unless you are ok with a 10 bed hostel room.

    Modi was an amazing guide, sensitive to what people needed (chat, quiet, information, rest) along the way and knowledgeable about every stop on the tour. My partner and I felt very safe in his van (an important consideration for a lot of tourists, especially those who have never driven in Africa) and appreciated the flexibility on toilet stops, time to buy souvenirs etc. Absolutely faultless, would recommend to all.
