Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

The trip was fantastic, far exceeding are wildest imaginations, Natalie from the travel agency was fantastic, she was able to put together a wonderful trip, kept us informed and up to date, she was a pleasure to deal with and we will be recommending her to all are friends interested in traveling to Africa. of the 3 places we stayed the lodge in Timbavati Game Reserve was the best, made the whole trip. Cape Town was fun and the tour guide was great, fun to be with and very knowledgeable. Victoria Falls was beautiful, the hotel was very nice although the food was not to are liking, IE was usual cold, not a lot of great options, breakfast buffet the hot food was cold as if it had just come out of the fridge, the put it on a hot plate but it never gets hot

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

By far are stay at the lodge in Timbavati Game Reserve was the best part of the trip. we had up close and personal visit with all of the Big 5. On the 7 safari outings we had elephants, lions, rhinos, leopards, buffalo, as well as a number of other animals come so close I think we could have touched them, we had a pride of lions walk right by us, as well as a few leopard sightings, one with her in a tree with a recent kill, the binoculars never came out of the case. The guide and driver were amazing and extremely knowledgeable, the staff were all wonderful, the accommodations were great, The food was spectacular. I just can not say enough good things about the visit.

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

If I were to go back I would not go to Cape Town, It was nice and glad we went but do not feel like I would visit a second time, Same for Victoria Falls, but if I did go back to the Falls I would not stay at the hotel there, It was a nice place but we did not have very good experiences with the restaurant and the restaurant staff, I think we would stay a day or two longer at the lodge in Timbavati Game Reserve, then maybe go to Kenya for a 3-5 day stay at a lodge there.
