Review of Addo Elephant National Park’s 9-hour safari, with elephant sightings, expert guides, lunch, pickup, pricing, and practical tips.

“We can 100% recommend this tour to anyone! Our guide John was really knowledgeable and always knew the best spots to see a lot of the animals. The open safari car was spacious & comfortable and all of us were able to have a window seat. Whenever someone spotted an animal, John would immediately tell the driver to stop so we could take all the pictures we wanted. The little pre packed lunch was also delicious. All in all we felt in good hands at all times. Thanks again for the trip of a lifetime!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 110 reviews · from $169

Review of Addo Elephant National Park’s full-day safari from Port Elizabeth, with wildlife viewing, a South African braai, transfers, and practical tips.

“Joel and Loreen were wonderful hosts and they are fantastic tour operators. They waited for us at the cruise terminal and did not leave until all registered guests arrived. Or tour guide, Stafford, was very friendly, knowledgeable, entertaining and really cared about making sure his guests were treated well and gained the best experience possible. The park itself was huge and Stafford and our driver did their best to spot as many animals as we could. This is a national park, not a private reserve, so the experience is more authentic although more difficult to see some of the big 5. No matter because even though we didn’t see lions…”

A practical review of this five-day South African tour, covering Addo safaris, canoeing, wine tasting, Tsitsikamma, costs, and comfort.

“Heel erg genoten van alle ingrediënten van deze reis. Christine was onze gids, een heel energieke en vriendelijke, gezellige dame! Veel afwisseling in de reis, en op elke plek goede tips. De hostels waren super, we hadden 1 persoonskamers, kan in Europa als hotelkamers doorgaan. Heerlijk gegeten ook in alle hostels. Fijne groep van 10 personen uit 4 continenten! Qua organisatie en communicatie vooraf ook dikke 10! De avond voor de tour startte onze gids een app groep. Daardoor was de communicatie bij het ophalen ook erg goed. Kortom: een aanrader!! Zou zo weer meegaan!!”

Review of Addo Elephant National Park’s 7-hour safari with elephant sightings, small groups, braai lunch, park entry, and hotel pickup.

“We had an amazing trip with Donald as our safari guide. We have seen 2 of the big 5 and Donald put all his effort in finding a lion, but unfortunately we did not see one. The park is extremely large which makes it difficult to find the entire big 5. In the afternoon we had a delightful braai with a Savanna cider. It was really delicious. We would definitely book again, great safari!”

We hebben veel gezien en de gids heeft uitgebreid de tijd voor ons genomen. Het had geen betere ervaring kunnen zijn. Echt een aanrader. Bedankt Leilani!!”
