- AAnonymous· October 18th, 2023Pre trip information was poor, we had no idea what was included and what wasn't. However on arrival in Joburg we were unexpectedly met at the airport. Our tour director, in South Africa,Nanette was amazing, Her knowledge, organisation and ability to squeeze everything in was faultless. Where we had problems due to food allergies, she battled tirelessly on our behalf. Lynne and I were blown away. Our tour director in Zimbabwe, Brighton was also exceptional and consistently went above and beyond for us, organising appropriate excursions, meal reservations and more.Show moreTrip date: October 2023Review collected by Cosmos

- AAnonymous· August 26th, 2023I really enjoyed the trip, the intenerary, and the guides.The only downside was that our tour director didn't travel to Zimbabwe with us and was unresponsive when we ran into some trouble with an excursion. She should have been with us for the whole trip.Show moreTrip date: August 2023Review collected by Cosmos

Kathy
Asked on August 2nd, 2023Do you have any dates during the first week of Jan 2024
CosmosOperator•Written August 2023Good morning. We can offer our Highlights Of South Africa Tour (Tour 3850) on the 13th Jan 2024. This is also a 9 day tour.

Kathy
Traveler•Written August 2023Thanks Lorraine for your prompt response. Looking for dates during first week of Jan. Can we combine 2 different tours?
- CosmosOperator•Written August 2023
Good morning. All our tours are set dates. Most we only have one departure in January which is mid Jan. You can do 2 tours back to back, but we cannot do half of one tour and half of another tour. The only tours I can offer in early Jan would be with our sister brand Globus. We do have some independent offerings. You don't travel round with a group, you are just in your own party.

Asked on June 9th, 2023Do you have further information on the number of people on the tour and the cost of excursions that are not included in the overall price?
- CosmosOperator•Written June 2023
The available departure is August 12, 2023. Once we know what date you would like to travel, we will be able to see the amount of people that will be on the tour with you. The optional excursions along with the price will be included in the travel packet once your booked.

Asked on December 26th, 2022Could that VFA-JNB flight become a VFA-CPT flight somehow? It would save us a stop in JNB and it looks like the cost difference in the two wouldn't break the bank maybe
- CosmosOperator•Written December 2022
Unfortunately, we are not able to alter the itinerary in any way due to our contracts with suppliers.

Asked on November 20th, 2022What hotels are used in this package? Does the coach have a toilet? Is this trip good for a person using a walker, I have MS.
- CosmosOperator•Written November 2022
Hotels are not confirmed until approximately 30 days prior to departure. The hotels we have listed as examples are: Johannesburg- Garden Court Sandton City, Kruger National Park Area- Protea Hotel by Marriott Kruger Gate, Cape Town- SunSquare Cape Town Gardens. The motorcoaches used in South Africa do not have toilets/washrooms, neither do safari vehicles. The suitability for this tour is up to you. If we are able to accommodate the walker itself, it may not be suitable to use during the tour, particularly during the safari excursions, where the ground is uneven. We are not able to slow the group down in order for you to catch up. Overall, I believe you would have to decide if you are able to take this tour.

The hotels used will be the following. Hotels: Johannesburg: Garden Court Sandton City. Kruger National Park Area: Protea Hotel By Marriott Kruger Gate. Cape Town: SunSquare Cape Town Gardens.
