- VSVivienne· May 26th, 2025I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Our tour guide Isaac was an absolute legend and made sure that our visit was as perfect as could be. Our accomodation was very vairied as we booked the 'back packer' option with private rooms. Some of the rooms were quite basic in quaint beachside locations, but always spacious and clean; but we were also accomodated in an absolutely beautiul family farm in incredible chalets and provided with a home cooked meal which was amazing. I would definitely recommed listening to Isaac and to the itinerary that he suggests as another group definitley missed out by turning down some of the options given. The 7am starts are 100% worth it to fit in all the activities and visits.Show more

- RMRachelle· January 28th, 2025The tour and accommodation was excellent. Our guide Maudi great! Great value. There was an issue with booking originally and the communication thru the tour radar app definitely needs work as we had to call the office overseas when our questions were not being answered. As it was we only found out the tour we had received confirmation on was cancelled the day before our departure - but nobody got a hold of us - it was our panicked enquiry from us to confirm pick up time and location the day before the tour was to depart that brought it to light to tour radar.

- ALouisa Wüstenberg· August 18th, 2024TK is the best driver guide and very good music taste for the journey in the bus. Good activities along the way, very nice accommodations.

As a suggestion it may be better as a buffet style, and some lunch stops during the day need more options and only have a time for take-away.Show moreHotspots2c commented on this reviewThank you for your review!

- AKrishma Tangri· May 12th, 2024Amazing experience made even better by our tour guide. Nothing was too much effort, he did all in his pwer to make the tour so special for us. All I can say is WOW - this trip surpassed my expectations in every way and the best part of our tour was our amazing guide Uriel. He is a wonderful soul and an asset to the tour company. A few pointers: Accommodation choice were lovely, Addo was our favourite safari stop, and all of the other activities were amazing and great value too. The drives never felt too long, we had great entertainment: music, guide sharing local stories and interesting history. Uriel did a great job of bringing our group to life - making everyone feel part of the small group travel experience. Oh South Africa - what a magical place!

Asked on September 18th, 2025Can I check if a single person books this tour that they will not have to share a room and bathroom with a stranger. For the private room in hostel, it says if an uneven amount of people is booked; the single person gets a separate room. I don't want to book the dormitary as it says it will be mixed gender. What does that mean?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written September 2025
Yes, of course. If x1 person books the Private own room Hostel package, then it will be a private room and bathroom for that person. The reason it mentions "if an uneven amount of people is booked; the single person gets a separate room.", that is for friend/family groups of 3, 5, 7, 9 etc. Then that single person gets a separate room and the rest would share Twin/Double rooms, with maximum 2 people in each room. But this doesn't apply to you if you are a solo traveller booking.

Asked on July 12th, 2025We like the tour "5 day Best of South Africa Highlights: Garden Route with Addo National Park" but see that the price for the May 1, 2026 departure is listed at CA$3,769 vs the May 4, 2026 departure for CA$910. Is this correct?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written July 2025
This 5 day Garden Route + Addo tour, has scheduled departures on Mondays. Any other departure date/day is considered an unscheduled departure and therefore has a higher rate due to it being a requested date. That is why there is a difference in rate between Friday 01May & Monday 04May.

Traveler•Written May 2025Is there a maximum and minimum number for the tour to operate?
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written May 2025
Any other day departure, like a Tuesday, is an unscheduled / special departure and requires only 2 people booked on the 3star or 4star package to confirm the departure, therefore the rate is also different to the scheduled departures.

Asked on January 16th, 2025I was leveraging to the trip on dates Sept 29 to Oct 3, that is $645. So I was hoping to get the same rate with only a day difference.
- Hotspots2cOperator•Written January 2025
The price for the September 30th departure will be USD 1,545 per person. I am not sure how it will be possible to take off USD $1000 per person to meet your budget. Maybe we can find another tour option.
