    Our two guides Samu and Tswola were super nice, organized and helpful. The accommodations were brilliant, and very different. The safari rancher showed us with much passion not only the Big5! The care was excellent, we would definitely recommend the tour!!!

    Accommodations were perfect locations. The 2 guides were more like family as we were only 3 travellers. Had an amazing time. Should extend to a 7 day tour given the 2 days lost travelling to and from Kruger. Would definitely travel with Drifters again.
