A great 3 day experience with safari - We were picked up at our hotel by our guide Chris who was an amazing host and very knowledgable about this history of South Africa, Cape Town and the garden route. He explains things in a very honest way and gives you a great insight in the country especially for a first time visitor. As it was off peak season we were lucky to be the only ones on the tour so we could be very flexible with stop offs the advantage of the tour is that you don’t need to think about anything other than enjoy the surroundings. The first day was a costal drive with some stop offs we saw penguins and went to the southern tip of Africa. The guest house on the first night was very basic (and probably could have been better) we were unlucky that was an issue with no running water in the area that night (outside of our control)but Chris did his best to help with the issue and got some large bottles. You can’t always expect everything to run smoothly. The highlight of the trip was the game lodge which felt a lot more luxurious in terms of the bedroom lodge and three course meal after the evening game drive. The staff are great at the lodge, there’s a swimming pool there too outside if you have time and a small games room. There was also a morning drive too on the last day. The breakfast is excellent after this, and you will get to see most animals over the two drives, lion, cheetah, elephant, rhino, hippo, zebra, buffalo and others. The third day is mainly about the drive home to Cape Town there’s some good scenery and you will do a couple of stops at shops and we also done a quick wine tasting on the way home. We got back about 4.30pm to cape town and was very happy with how the days went overall. I think the 3 day tour was about the right amount of time 2 days would have felt a bit rushed and I think we covered enough in 3 days. The safari is certainly the highlight!
