"My Mar 2013 trip"
I visited South Africa between 28 Mar 2013 and 11 Apr 2013
"We had a brilliant time - none of us wanted to come home!
It was really easy to travel around, all the hotels were good or brilliant and easy to find and we managed to do everything but Table Mountain (long queue on Easter Monday that the children couldn't have handled).
We found everyone we met really helpful and friendly and can't wait to go back. 12 out of 10 for a holiday (and we have had some pretty great ones in the past).
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
No - its all be great. Thanks for all your help!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a South Africa trip

"Relaxing and interesting holiday"
I visited South Africa between 25 Nov 2012 and 12 Dec 2012
"We really enjoyed our first trip to S Africa and would really recommend it.
Wonderful scenery and lots to do. We stayed in lovely hotels and had great food and wine. We also saw some of the problems the country has, and learned much more about its recent political evolution and past history. We also enjoyed the wildlife with whales, dolphins, seals and penguins. The Fynbos was really amazing to see with incredible flowers wherever you looked whilst the remnants of indiginous forest were remarkable.
Our abiding memory will be of the kindness and good humour of the people we met, often living in such difficult circumstances surrounded by such affluence; unsettling and inspiring at the same time.
