The trip was amazing. Jeremy, our tour guide, ,took excellent care of us. I was traveling along but everyone made me fell like we were a family looking out for each other. Highly recommend going on the trip and if you get Jeremy you will learn so much about the history of South Africa

This was our 10th Smartours trip and one of the best. This trip is so well organized and our guide Jeremy was excellent. The safaris are so much fun and we were able to see the big five plus many more - truly an amazing experience. Smartours continues to impress us with their well developed itineraries and such great value. We already have three more Smartours trips planned.

What a fantastic trip! This trip must be put on your bucket list! The cost was unbelievable considering what was included! Accommodations were first class, tours were great especially those at Kruger Park! Our tour guide Jonathan Muller was so knowledgeable and showed us why he loves his country! I give this trip an A+!

South Africa Highlights and Safari September 16, 2021 was fantastic! It was the first tour back to South Africa since Covid-19! Everything ran very smoothly and our guide Jonathan Muller was so knowledgeable and told us so much about his country. Safaris in Kruger and Hulhulwe were great with many animal sightings! Accommodations were the best and the food was delicious! I highly recommend this adventure with SmarTours!

The South Africa tour and Victoria Falls extension were fabulous! Our tour guide, Jeremy Poole, was outstanding. He is knowledgeable about history, social issues, geography, and all aspects of travel. He is efficient, extremely friendly and caring about providing the best travel experience for everyone in his tour group. I highly recommend the optional tours. Very special experiences, in addition to visits to parks to view a great variety of wild life by boar and by safari vehicle, include the chance to see and get close to cheetahs, and to even pet young lions and also to pet and feed elephants. I highly recommend this tour!

This was a wonderful trip! Jeremy was our guide, and he was so knowledgeable and organized. We were the "lucky" group who went up Table Mountain on a beautiful sunny day, and the rest of the week was too windy for the cable cars to go up. We saw all the animals including the big 5 on most all of the safaris. One day our local guide on a safari spotted a leopard with two cubs as we were in a hurry to get back. It was wonderful, and that made three leopards we had seen. Victoria Falls was magnificent, and probably my favorite part of the trip, which is hard to say, as the whole trip was awesome!
