Katrina Jerren· July 30th, 2024What an amazing experience! I could not have asked for a better driver (Calvin) and CEO (Johannes)! Johannes was well organized, punctual, and on point with communication. The sites, the safaris (worth every early morning start), would not have been the same without Johannes' passion, knowledge, and diplomacy. The cheetah conservation talk was a definite highlight along with the walk in Soweto. The accommodations were great and felt like many efforts were made to make sure I had access to gluten-free food. My one suggestion (and maybe I missed this as I came late to the Welcome meeting) would be to have more optional group dinners in Capetown.Show moreTrip date: July 2024- Lisa· May 22nd, 2024The tour had its ups and downs. It started slow and a bit confusing with transfers and plans on when and where to first meet. The first hotel was fine and the day of touring was ok. The CEO was pedantic, lectured and repeated a lot but he grew on me over the 10 days. He genuinely wanted to serve the group. The optional wine tour was good. The Soweto tour was the first exceptional thing, several days into the tour. But the Holiday Inn and food there was not good. The two nights in Johannesburg were supposed to be a barbecue then African food the second night. Both nights were actually terrible buffet food you’d get at a Holiday Inn in Kansas City. Things finally improved at the Eco Lodge near Krueger. And the nicest place we stayed with the only decent food on the trip was at the Kwawongwe Reserve. Those two days were great. So I don’t think I’ll be taking another G Adventures tour unless you offer something more upscale.Show moreTrip date: May 2024

What our customers ask about this tour
The content in our FAQ section is subject to change.- J
Josephine
Asked on June 23rd, 2025We are interested in visiting Victoria Falls. Could this be added to the itinerary, either at the end, or a direct flight from Cape Town with a flight to Kruger afterward? We do like the Panoramic Route scenic drive between Johannesburg and Kruger, but would only want to drive between Johannesburg and Kruger once. Would it be possible to fly instead of drive for one these commutes? We were thinking about an itinerary that starts in Cape Town, fly to Victoria Falls, fly to Kruger, Panoramic Route drive to Johannesburg. Would this make sense to you, and is it something that is possible?
National Geographic Journeys with G AdventuresOperator•Written June 2025This is a group trip with a maximum of 16 people, so unfortunately, no changes to the itinerary can be made. However, you're welcome to add extra days before or after the trip — for example, arriving a few days early in Cape Town or staying a few days longer in Johannesburg. If you're happy to proceed with the regular group trip, you can book. Or, if you're interested in a custom private trip, I'd be happy to send you some options — please just note that private trips do tend to be more expensive than the group departures listed on our site.
