Tour Highlights

Half-Day Cape Town Tour: This tour of Cape Town includes two tickets to Table Mountain (weather permitting), the towering peak that overlooks the city. A cable car whisks passengers to the summit for sweeping views of the ocean, islands, and the Cape Town Stadium in Green Point, which was built for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

Pilanesberg National Park: You’ll go on five safari game drives in this reserve located in the northeastern part of the country, near Pretoria. Set in the crater of an extinct volcano, the park supports Bushveld vegetation and a flourishing animal population, including the Big Five—lions, leopards, rhinoceros, elephants, and buffalo. You may also catch a glimpse of cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, hippos, and crocodiles.

The staff during the entire trip were great. Our safari guide / driver (Njoka) was great & had an eagle eye helping spot lions & other animals in what looked like tree limbs or shrubs to us! Highly recommend Private Safaris, a job well done! Very organized and all of the hotel & location selections were excellent outside of one - Lake Naivasha Country Club - that place needs a renovation - lovely location though. The only comment is that there was a lot of driving and maybe it would have been better to cut one location and stay a day extra at Lake Nakuru or Masai Mara.

African Answers did a marvelous job! I could not have asked or found anything better. From the side trip in Dubai to the great safari company in Kenya!
