- CMCatherine· June 12th, 2024The trip was fabulous and our guide, Jaym, not notch. The experience was enhanced not only by the beautiful lodgings, delicious cuisine, expert drivers and trackers, but also by the expertise and passion of Jaym. He was knowledgeable, friendly and very personable, sharing stories and his love of nature with us.Show moreTrip date: May 2024
Angie· January 20th, 2022I booked a trip to South Africa with National Geographic... what I thought was a reputable company. A couple weeks before I was supposed to go, they canceled the tour. They have not refunded any portion of my money. They said the airfare was non-refundable and that I couldn't even have a flight credit. But they are the ones that canceled the trip. However Delta told me that a refund check was sent to the agency. Then they said they would refund the other portion of the trip expense, but it may take 6 months. It is completely unacceptable. The entire 100% of the trip should be refunded and should have been refunded the day they canceled the trip. The business is not responsive to this. I filed a complaint with the BBB and they did not respond. I sent a 30 day demand letter in preparation of filing in court against them. So far no resolution. I expect a 100% refund AND I share this story to strongly advise against anyone ever booking a national geographic trip of any kind. I will be posting this review online in every spot I can find.Show moreTrip date: December 2021- JHJulian· September 16th, 2019Alfy the perfect CEO knowledgeable with a good...Show moreTrip date: September 2019

Asked on October 29th, 2024My husband and I are interested in booking this tour but I can not find details of the accomodation that is available. He is a fit 72 year old and I'm 68 and so do not want basic accomodation - ensuite always required in hotels. We fly home from Johannesburg on the 28th March at 19.45, so need to know that we would be dropped off at the airport in the afternoon.
National Geographic Journeys with G AdventuresOperator•Written October 2024The names of the accommodations are actually on Tour Radar's web page for this trip!
