Must do while in Cape Town - Great tour. We saw 4 out of 5 of the Big 5. The sparkling wine was delicious and it very affordable to purchase a bottle to take home. The lunch was great and the staff was friendly. Would highly recommend.

Great day out, everything provided - Was a great day out, got to see loads of animals 'all the big 5 plus more! The driver was fantastic and gave us some history on the way. The lunch they provide is a full on cooked/ cold buffet and puddings! It's a long drive which was the only thing for me. Unfortunately I gave all of my money to trip the games driver, I didn't have anything left to tip the driver who took us. I felt bad when I arrived back to my hotel. I wasn't aware you needed to take ID, this wasn't mentioned. Fortunately I had a photo of my passport on my phone they took a photo off! The toilet were not great, esp the ones at the games they were quite poor

It was an incredible experience! - It was an incredible experience! Our driver/ guide, Djiby aka Gabriel, collected us on time from our hotel and we spent a lively 2 hour+ drive to the Aquila Game Reserve. He walked us through the entry process and ensured that we had our sumptuous lunch. Additionally he oversaw our boarding the safari vechild and was waiting for us when ee returned. It was a wonderful and awe inspiring day. Seeing the animals in their natural habitat was exhilarating! The wide open savannah with the free roaming animals against the majestic mountain back drop was a highlight in our life that we will never forget. EVERYTHING WAS WELL DONE!

Perfect safari experience just outside of Cape Town!! - An incredible African safari experience just outside of Cape Town! The driver picked me up in a very comfortable vehicle, the drive to Aquila was GORGEOUS (even saw lots of baboons!), lunch at Aquila was delicious, and the safari was exactly what I wanted! We saw elephants, giraffes, zebras, ostriches, lions, rhinos, hippos, springboks, and oryxes! It was quite chilly, but they even provided blankets so it was very comfortable! An amazing day!!

Loved every moment - Excellent day from start to finish. We had a wonderful driver Jèan, arrived promptly, knowledgeable and helpful. The lunch at the Aquila before the safari was delicious with a good range inc vegan. Spent 2.5hr out in an open top bus, managed to find 4 of the big 5, we could find the leopard, our guide was happy to answer and look into anything we could see, get were able to get up close to the elephant and see a hippo! So much to see, I would highly recommend this experience and would happily re visit. Return to our hotel with more knowledge about Cape Town and a few places to visit.

Good food and great tour - Loved it! It would have been better if we were able to tour immediately and then eat lunch. Food was great and staff was pleasant. Got to see all the animals so that was exciting!

Average - It was ok. I expected to see more animals. We weren’t able to get close to the few we saw. Also our tire went out which took a little time to exchange vehicles. Was told the tour would be at least three hours and it was only 1.5. Thirty minutes was spent driving back from the reserves to the front.

Incompetent tour operator. - The organization is POOR, the excursion was supposed to be in French but it is only in English. I found myself not understanding any of the explanations given. Aquila is perfect as a reserve, I am only talking about the organizer who should close shop.
