Feedback from our Travellers

  • Mark clearly showed his knowledge and enthusiasm. Both the initial booking and the subsequent addition of flights went smoothly. The accommodation in the game parks brought us closer to Swaziland than normal hotels would have done. Camp Shawu in Kruger (Shishangeni) was possibly the most unique and special accommodation we've ever stayed in. Highly, highly recommended!

  • Eswatini is a surprising little country landlocked within South Africa so I expected that such a small place would be at the lower end of the developing word. Not so, I found the people energetic and keen to advance. The few travellers who go here tend to do so for the wildlife but I wanted to see the history and culture of this former British colony. There is a lot to see and learn here, I enjoyed this trip and would urge others to go and see for themselves. I have travelled to about 40 countries with this operator so it must be doing something right. The reps visit the countries and check everything out so I can be assured that everything is going to be OK even for tailor made trips like this one. Also the destinations while not undiscovered, as the tour company name suggests, are less frequently travelled and have not been spoilt by excessive tourism. The tours have a good mix of things to see and do so should please most people - there is also the added benefit of seeing something quite different from the usual holidays. I will travel with this operator again as, even after 40 countries, there are still many less frequently travelled I would like to see.

South Africa has a range in climate from Mediterranean in the west to subtropical in the east. Our tours are scheduled to operate in the summer months, when you can expect temperatures of around 22°C to 33°C. Although you should expect some rainfall this is a good time of year to spot wildlife and in particular birds.
