South Africa

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

The travel company did a phenomenal job helping me plan a family vacation for multiple families. We started planning for this trip in 2019 and were scheduled to travel for Christmas holiday in December 2020; it was originally planned for 20+ travelers. Due to the pandemic, we had to postpone the trip twice and more than half the travelers had to cancel. The travel planner and her team were unbelievably attentive and patient with all of the changes to the dates, the itinerary, and the number of clients. With every change, she was very mindful of the budget and the overall vision for the trip.
If the details are important to you (and why wouldn't they be with a trip like this), I would highly recommend this travel company!

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

EVERY SINGLE THING ABOUT THIS TRIP WAS MEMORABLE! While this was my second time visiting South Africa, for the rest of my group (10 other travelers) it was the first visit and they will be talking about this trip for many years to come.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

The in-country tour operator company subcontracted by the travel company was phenomenal at keeping the group on track to be able to see and do as much on our itinerary as we could stuff into each day. The only thing that I would have appreciated more of from the Cape Town tour guide would have been more African history pre-colonization. He was very knowledgable about Cape Town history after the Dutch invaded/immigrated there, he did not offer even the slightest bit of history or knowledge of the country prior to this period. That was very unfortunate.
The guide in Johannesburg did a much better job of giving the group a good balance of pre-colonization through apartheid history in his tours.
