SAFARI STYLE

SAFARI CREW
Your driver / guide has been selected based on his experience and knowledge of South Africa as well as his ability to ensure a comfortable, smoothly operated safari for a fun & friendly small group of travelers. Most of the guides are South African citizens and all have a love of the bush & an in-depth knowledge of their country that is enthusiastically shared.

SMALL & PERSONALISED GROUPS
The group will consist of 1 to 9 travellers plus one safari guide / driver.

SAFARI VEHICLE FEATURES
Depending on the group size you will travel in either an air conditioned luxury sedan (one or two of you) or a safari microbus (usually for 3 to 7 passengers) or a luxury touring coach. Some game drives will be in an open vehicle.

ACCOMMODATION
Accommodation is included at upper 4 star hotels and country lodges. They offer comfortable and spacious rooms often decorated with inspiring African themes and en suite bathrooms. At the time of booking we will confirm which lodges, hotels etc you will be staying at and we will give you the web links so you can do some browsing and be sure this safari is right for you!
