    Everything about this tour was top notch. Highlight was our time at King's Camp. The service was beyond expectations at each location. We felt confident in our guides and trackers knowledge and competency. The locations were amazing..always felt safe and cared for.

    This was simply an amazing trip. We have traveled all over the world and this was by far the best. African Travel were there at every step of the way and planned everything perfectly. Even when things had to change they were right on top of it. The hotel in Cape Town was absolutely wonderful and the lodge on safari exceeded expectations and was a life changing experience. Animal viewing was amazing and the guide in Cape Town and the ranger on safari were knowledgeable and made us feel like VIPs. I would highly recommend African Travel.
