- DNDetlef· January 9th, 2024Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishOn the whole the trip was ok. The bus and especially the driver who accompanied us for 2 days, as well as the guides on the safaris, were very good... The vehicles on the safaris, on the other hand, were an ancient, extremely loud "tractor" and on the other tour a small truck that had no suspension. The overnight stay in the luxurious tent house was OUTSTANDING! Apart from buffalo and leopard, we saw almost everything... In the description of the safari over two days, a lot was suggested, e.g. lunch, meeting elephants (which was an absolute highlight) was included, or great 4x4 vehicles to sit in...Show moreHotspots2c commented on this reviewHi Detlef, and thank you for your honest review and helpful feedback.

- GFGlenn· November 16th, 2023Hi 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.Show moreHotspots2c commented on this reviewHi again Glenn and Neil.

- WSWayne· April 2nd, 2023This 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.Show moreHotspots2c commented on this reviewAhhh such a great review with so many tips for future travellers too.. thanks for taking your time to share your feedback and advice.

Asked on October 16th, 2025haven't locked in dates yet as still organizing things but during our time there we would love to visit the game reserve, just need some information re the tour, will we self drive from Cape Town to the reserve? Do we stay in the lodge? are meals included? And will we see all the animals in that time frame?
Hotspots2cOperator•Written October 2025Transfers / Self-Drive: Guests do not need to self-drive - guided transport from Cape Town to the game reserve is included as part of the tour, so you can relax and enjoy the scenery. Accommodation: Depending on your choice of accommodation you will either stay at a backpacker lodge or guesthouse within or near the game reserve, giving you a comfortable base for your safari experience. Meals: Only breakfast is included during your stay - Lunch and dinner is for your own account.

Traveler•Written October 2025Will there be a shuttle service after the Safari Tour is over? Can you tell me the cost please
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written October 2025

- Hotspots2cOperator•Written October 2025

Asked on October 1st, 2025Why are they unable to join as a single traveler? Can't they just pay a single supplement?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written October 2025
Fridays are seen as an unscheduled departure day at a higher rate and a minimum number of 2x travelers are needed to confirm the tour.

Sherry
Asked on September 25th, 2025I'll be in Africa in October/November and volunteering at the Ashia Cheetah Center. I'd like to book a 2-day safari. Do you offer pickup in this area or a transfer?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written September 2025
Pickups are usually done at locations within 10km radius from Cape Town City Centre. We can make arrangements for the guide to pick you up at a meeting point close to Paarl. Exotic Animal World (Previously Butterfly World), R44, Stellenbosch, 7600 would be the closest meeting point that the guide can collect you, but you would have to make your own arrangements to get there. Drop off would depend on your location preferences, and you can discuss with the guide the nearest point for drop-off.

Kimberly
Asked on September 14th, 2025I'll be in Africa in October/November and volunteering at the Ashia Cheetah Center. I'd like to book a 2-day safari with you. My question is, do you also offer pickup in this area or a transfer?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written September 2025
The team advised that they can pick you up from the Exotic Animal world (Butterfly World) in Klapmuts.

Asked on August 6th, 2025We want to go on the safari trip but we have some questions regarding the luggage. Is it normal for people to bring their suitcase on this trip? And is the suitcase secure?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written August 2025
Yes, you are welcome to bring your luggage with on tour, the luggage requirements advise that it may not be more than 25kg. There will be space in the Tour van, or perhaps if the van is full then there will be a trailer as well.
