Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

We were extremely pleased with the trip planned for us by this Africa safari travel agency. We had mentioned early in the planning stages, that we have a particular interest in whales. Our travel planners recommended that we go to Hermanus, South Africa, a town we had never heard of. We loved it there and really enjoyed seeing Southern Right Whales right from shore. All of our accommodations were great, from the boutique hotels in South Africa to the camps in Botswana. The guide we had in South Africa, for three days, was fantastic and made that part of the trip a memorable experience.

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

The close encounters with elephants. Pelo Camp in Botswana had a regular group of elephants that would wander through camp and we surprised one on the path to the tents one morning. Not sure who was more startled, the elephant or us! We also were fortunate to have an elephant munching on the trees about 20 feet away from our outdoor shower at Sable Alley, totally unconcerned that we were right there taking pictures.

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

We would maybe add a night in Hermanus and do one less night at Sable Alley.
