Trevor and Candice were easy to work with and everything they put together for our trip was perfect

we could not have been more please as they took care of everything with great value and care and wonderful suggestions and amazing follow up. given the complexities for our trip we did not have one moment when things went wrong or we had to call Trevor to follow up . Nothing was left to chance and Candice's suggestions of Rhino Ridge lodge and the game drive operator in Kruger and tours in Victoria Falls could not have been better. Mike

Safari365 set us up for the perfect family holiday

Frederick was pro-active from the very beginning and designed and booked a fabulous family experience for us. The trip was tailored to our specific interests and needs, allowing us to explore South Africa with ease. Accommodation choices were excellent and exceeded our expectations, and car hire and internal flights were easy and well-timed. With all that taken care of, we could spend our time on the fun things like planning our day-to-day adventures. When there was some confusion at one hotel, we could contact Frederick immediately on whatsapp and he quickly sorted the situation - such a relief to have this backup! We enjoyed an amazing safari experience at Babanango Valley Lodge, hiking in Drakensburg and Capetown and swimming, surfing and kayaking along the Garden Route and some amazing South African food experiences. Would highly recommend using Safari365 for any South African experience.

Top service tailored by your needs

We booked our roadtrip through KwaZulu-Natal with Jackie. Jackie designed a family-tailored trip for us, considering our needs, budget and desires. No request was too much! She found a hidden gem; Babanango Game Reserve. The trip was a perfect mix of nature, safari and culture.
