- ARodrigo· October 20th, 2025An unforgettable expedition — we flew into Botswana, stayed in wild safari camps, saw herds of elephants, then finished in South Africa with panoramic landscapes.

 Antony· November 20th, 2024Just returned after the " the big 5 in South Africa" tour. Well organized and good itinerary. The support was excellent when needed .Thanks to Penny, Rose, Amanda for the excellent arrangements, professional support and daily updates which helped us to enjoy the tour. The guide and driver Abdella was very professional and made the 1000 km drive comfortable and safe.The vehicle provided was comfortable. The hotels were good, clean and comfortable . Suggest the second night stay at Knysna can be changed to Oudtshoorn or George to avoid 2hour drive. Definitely recommand this tour.

- PKPravin· August 12th, 2024Everything is fantastical and well planned. Itinerary is good. However, Knysna stay could be avoided and instead it should be in George. It will surely save couple on hours travel on 2 days of the itinerary. Rest all is simply perfect.Show more Wonderful Holidays UK commented on this reviewHello Pravin, Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience on the Big 5 South Africa tour!
