Africa Safari Review: South Africa, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Robben Island, Kruger National Park, Thambo Tree Camp

We would not go to the Zeekoe. The cottages we were assigned were out in nowhere land and very hard to get to. They were brand new and not everything we needed was there. It also was full of mosquito's and other flying insects. The dirt road leading to the cottages was in very poor shape and the outing to see the meerkats we could have done without. Same with the Conga Caves. They were impressive caves but not such that it was much different from ones I've seen before. If we did it again we would spend more time at the private lodges and do more game drives. The road conditions on some roads was absolutely horrific leaving us to get to our destinations way later than anticipated and the noted drive time was not accurate because of this. We also were not that impressed by the visit to Robben Island. Capetown was okay for a few hours, but we could have done without.

We had issues at both Avis offices with our car rental reservations, which wasted a lot of our time. Neither office had confirmation that the rentals were already paid for so they wanted to charge us again
