What our guests have said about this accommodation

Andries Olivier

Overall everything was fine and we enjoyed ourselves very much, thank you.

Sandra Parkinson

A great stay - superb views, very relaxing, well equipped and comfortable lodges.Perfect if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle for a while.

COLIN CROMHOUT

We had a fantastically relaxing 4 days' stay at Ebb & Flow. It's a wonderful place. Will definitely be back next year.

Lisa McCann

Very organised and friendly staff. Everything was very clean. Beautiful, quiet and relaxing environment with abundant birdlife.

Hayley Harnesen

Ebb and Flow Camp was really stunning. Well maintained, friendly staff and loads to do. We loved it.

Adele Van Rooyen

Easy to find. Friendly staff. Clean, neat & safe. Bungalow/rondavel was clean, neat & fully equipped! Peaceful & serene! Surrounded by nature. Well managed & cared for. Joyful atmosphere, pure bliss! Can't wait to get the opportunity to stay over again.

MARIETJIE ERASMUS

Staff friendly and very helpful.

ELIZABETH VENTER

What a pleasure visiting! It is such a beautiful camping site. We stayed in the rondawels and had a great time. Clean linen and crockery. Peaceful weekend.

Stuart Cowie

Good, clean accommodation. Everything as supplied. Excellent surrounding gardens & helpful staff.

Nina Bodisch

It is always a pleasure to stay at the Ebb & Flow Restcamp. I have stayed many times over the past years, in most of the accommodation options available, but my personal favourite must be the lovely rondawels, which are good value for money. The service levels and professionalism and friendliness of the staff, everyone from the security at the gates, to the Reception to the cleaning staff is professional and friendly. The rest camp is excellently maintained. Thanks and I will be back many more times in future.

MRS BASSON

We booked for a rondawel at Eb and Flow, but they were busy renevating, so they put us in one of the log cabins, we were so surprise. We enjoyed it so much. It was clean and the service were very good and the people friendly. We will refer people to you. Thank you.

Jaime Abrahams

Was a very nice setup. beautiful view. Roof kept dripping water. Did not know where that came from at night while you sleeping. Overall is was a very nice stay at Eben flow.

CAROL NICHOLSON

Laid back, tranquil lifestyle in the most beautiful of settings. Utter peace and quiet. Spotless, clean and safe. Kiddies paradise for boating, fishing, playing football outside and riding bicycles.

Nina Bodisch

A beautiful place, well-kept and clean. Excellent customer service from the gatekeeper and Reception and cleaning staff as always. Just one wish, can you look at installing "hydro-boil" facilities at the camping sites in the communal kitchens, for boiling water for a cup of coffee. For those of us campers who don't bring their contests of their household with them when they go camping...!

Johan du Plessis

Awesome place to visit.

Wayne Muller

In summary: Accommodation excellent Facilities excellent Staff excellent

Tracey Abbott

Lovely accommodation that was cleaned daily, which was great but really needed a sink to wash dishes even if it was outside on the balcony. It was too noisy for us as well, children were playing mostly with no parental supervision or care. Otherwise wonderful setting, great Staff especially Wendy who was able to move us a little way from the noise. I had requested No: 20 or 21 as I realised the noise may be a problem but when we arrived no-one knew of this.

Robert Boldrino

Simple, but clean Forest Cabin with terrace and view to the river. Nice palce for canoeing. The hinking trails are mostly through the forest only.

Joan Koen

One word "Fantastic". Very nice camp site. North side the best. The hike to the waterfall was also very nice. Saw a lot of different birds.

Cedric Kok

It is a beautiful resort... wish we could have stayed longer. My only complaint: the ablutions could have been cleaner and the shower drain was blocked.

Audrey Thomas

The bungalow, although basic which is what I expected, the furniture and fittings are very Tardy or tired and could easily be upgraded without much expense.

Serildeen Cruywagen

Awesomeness!! the experience from the first call till leaving the site, was a memory that will stay with me for life. I felt so important and safe not just for me, but also for my family. The service level was excellent and friendly.Thank you very much.

Karen Hardisty

The Ebb and Flow Rest Camp offered a beautiful location on the banks of the Touw River in Wilderness. Although the weather left a little to be desired the cosy town of Wilderness provided many lovely restaurants offering good fare and value. The walking trails were excellent and the canoe ride up the river captured the wooded ravine to perfection. We will return!

Hennie Joubert

Het baie lekker gekuier - wonderlike kamp. Alles was mooi skoon en reg. Dankie

Myrna Nortje

We were 2 mature couples, each with their own wooden chalet. Friendly staff at reception. Good quality linen; clean and neat and good working shower. Spacious enough for 2 persons. Beautiful surrounds. Would make use of facility again.

Brink Marianne

This was about our 4th visit to Ebb and Flow and when we arrived I said to my husband "it was like coming home!" We had a very pleasant stay and although it rained a lot, we still enjoyed it. The highlight every year is walking the King Fischer Trail. See you next year

KAREN PETERS

We are the proud subscribers of a Wildcard and are slowly visiting every Sanpark on your list. Ebb + Flow Wilderness was our latest choice and we booked in for Jan this year for 3 nights. Beside the perfect setting, we really enjoyed the peace and the quiet with nature being the dominant factor of recreation. The facilities were clean- as can be with the amount of traffic they had to deal with- and everybody was very accommodating, courteous and friendly. We plan to make it one of our regular stops on the Garden Route.

Ingrid De lilie

We had an awesome time at EBB & Flow. Our friend came camping with us for the first time, they never camped before they were so impressed with the beauty and restfulness of the area and the fact that we could just leave our camp site without needing to lock up. They still talking about the trip. Thanks, hope we will see you guys soon.

Marion Coetzee

We had a great experience in a wonderful setting. Fortunately we got a cabin that was situated at a nice spot. In comparison to the other places we stayed I found the cabin a bit expensive.

Tana

The experience was very nice, staff were friendly and helpful and made you feel very welcome. The rondawel had all the things we needed and more. Will definitely be staying there again.

Wessel Theron

We had a great stay! The ablution blocks could have been in a better condition.

SM LOMBARD

Plantegroei baie mooi daar sien vreeslik baie vo

Tracey TraceyMayTracTr

Lovely camp, pity the river is not cleaner near where we stayed at Rondavel 34 and Campsite 111. Ablutions not always clean especially over Christmas. Overall very good impressions, great welcoming gate staff and admin staff especially Elsabe and Susan. Thanks to them!

MARIETTE DU TOIT

We stayed at the Ebb & Flow Rest Camp in Wilderness for two nights as we needed a place to stay over on our way to Tsitsikamma. We absolutely loved it. Our cabin was on the river bank. We hired a canoe and paddled down the river, cycled to town for a drink at the pub and hiked to the closest water fall where we swam in the lovely luke warm water. All in 1

Ebb and Flow has improved this year. The security is much better. They have also installed a braai on each site so you don't have to hire one anymore. Friendly staff as usual. Always a great time.

Johan

Stayed 4 days over Christmas and it was so peacefull. Normally you have a bit of noise in the evenings at camp sites but this one was so peacefull and quiet. Could enjoy the sound of the nature. Accomodation was clean, beds were good, not the boats you sometimes get. Enough to do, went up to the waterfall with the canoes, went for a few runs and swam in the river. Perfect. Will go again.

Carin Venter

Accommodation was well-equipped & spotless. Great that legislation regarding no noise is strictly maintained and respected - even though camp was packed it was blissfully quiet. Thanks for a great stay!

Sophia Warren

We stayed at Ebb and Flow for a race we've done in the Wilderness. Really enjoyed our stay there. Well kept and quiet!

Ronel Rademeyer

The period of stay was really very nice and the surroundings very ice. The camp is kept clean and userfriendly.

Berger

The camps site and setting is wonderful. It is well maintained and the staff are friendly. The chalets we had - 4 bunks timber on stilts, South side near river were adequate but would definitely be improved by some hanging or storage space for clothes. But the costs are reasonable and if there are less than 4 persons one of the beds can be used for that purpose. If the interior space of the cabins were a bit better organised I would have classified the site as exceptional.

Sharon Lumb

A very well run camp, with extremely courteous and efficient staff.

Chris Don

Great setting - enjoyed easy access to beach and canoes. We had booked 4 adults + 1 child - knew about need to bring a blowup lilo bed but forget that needed extra cultlery/plates etc for the fifth personChris

Sandy Rivera

No obvious recycling esp glass bottles in San Parks is always a problem to me - these places should be leading and teaching local communities & visitors to recycle and compost waste. It was not stated that we would have daily servicing - which we did not need!House very comfortable - but the dustbin trashed every night by a wild pig - clearly an ongoing problem. Kitchen equipment is well maintained and replaced - best maintenance that we have ever experienced in a SAN Parks facility - obviously excellent management and supervision make a huge difference - congratulations on the team. The feeling of honesty and trustworthiness among the staff is also highly appreciated.

J Haslam

It was just an overnight stay en route to Addo but we had no complaint about the rondavel (although the toilet could have been a little cleaner!) The grounds were very well maintained indeed.

Marc Coppin

Just a quick note on how cold the Rondawels are, especially in winter! We noticed the Rondawel next door had a heater, but we were not afforded that luxury. At R305 a night for such basic accommodation, it would be nice if staff would check that all rooms are equipped with a heater if available.All in all a great experience, and one of our many long-standing visits to the park. The delivery of fresh towels was a nice surprise.

W A Wessels

We enjoyed the stay in a safari tent with simple, but adequate facilities for a short stay. Unfortunately we did not have time to spend in the park during day-time.

Peter Merckel

Trip and stay was great. Will definitely be back.

Mike Ungerer

Beautiful spot. Unfortunately, no place to unpack one's clothes.We stayed for the weekend and had to live out of our bags.

Kalla Schroeder

Thank you for a pleasurable stay at EBB & FLOW.We enjoyed it very much. It's a beautiful place.Your service was also good. Blessings to you all.

G F Steyn

We had a log cabin on the south side of the Ebb & Flow rest camp. It was well equipped. The weather was cold (end of June) but the cabin was comfortable. We appreciated the flat panel heaters in the living room. The lake and mountain views from the balcony were exquisite.

JONATHAN DE VILLIERS

Entering the park with 11 vans was very easy and well organized. The park is well maintained with lovely ablutions. The view is spectacular. The next stay will have to be longer so we can enjoy the other activities on offer.

The Ebb & Flow restcamp is beautiful and well maintained. The Cabin was clean and contained everything as specified. The staff were friendly and professional. It rained all the time we were there , so did not do any exploring.

Jeanne Viljoen

Elize Paulsen

Dit was heerlik, die dienste was baie goed, en abblusie geriewe baie skoon en op standaard. Die personeel baie vriendelik en die kampterrein regtig baie goed versorg en onderhou.Ons gaan julle definitief weer besoek.

Betina De Araujo

We went up to Ebb & Flow so that I could do the Outeniqua half marathon. The accommodation was the only one left and a bit small but we ended up having an awesome stay in Wilderness. We went to the awesome craft market on the Sunday - had Kleptico at the Knysna V&A and went to birds of Eden.

Ann Race

We had a great time. The camp sites are very well maintained and so are the ablution facilities. The new braais were great but they need to be a bit lower as you cant sit around them for warmth and it was very cold in the evenings.

D J Diedericks

Ek was baie teleurgesteld in die terrein. Die gras was baie lank en slegs die bakens wat die staanplekke aandui was skoongesny.Die ablusiegeriewe was onder standaard. Die ablusie by die suid-kamp was baie klein en het nie warm water gehad nie. Daar was wel groter ablusiegeriewe aan die kant waar nie kragtoevoer was nie. Hierdie geriewe was beter maar is slegs een keer per dag skoon gemaak, met die gevolg dat die storte, veral, baie vuil was van die baie mense wat dit moes gebruik.Die ablusies by die noord-kamp was nie almal oop nie agv 'n probleem by een. Hierdie geriewe was ook baie vuil.Ek sou voorstel dat die ablusie meer sentraal gele

Lindsay SWINGLER

I had to leave Cape Town after 1 on the day I had booked the above camp. I only arrived after 6pm but did phone ahead to warn them. I had two small children in the car, and was quite anxious about arriving in the dark. I was assured that there would be someone at the gate. However, after arrival in the Wilderness, I could not find which gate/road to enter, or which was east or south?!? I had no way of communicating with E=F, and Krugerpark tel switchboard didnt know what I should do either. Eventually I found the correct gate but there was also confusion with papers, keys and eventually finding the cabin. We enjoyed the stay but I was very anxious and uncomfortable about finding the place. Perhaps better signage would be more encouraging, which gate is which, and a sign at the actual turnoff, not just before the turnoff.Many thanks, Lindsay Swingler

Mrs Keeton

Hi - we thoroughly enjoyed our stay & wished we could have stayed longer. The accommodation was good - but slightly more expensive than previous places with about the same facilities. The tv room was not ideal as the table tennis is in the same room - so the noise made it impossible to watch tv - I suggest you split them more - other than that - was great!!

Mrs Keeton

Trish Horszowski

We were very impressed with the cabin at ebb and flow. We thought it was beautifully situated and we had eveything we needed. very good value for money.

Kiba De Klerk

Beautiful and facilities well maintained. Poor administration should get serious attention.

Patrick Cousins

We have been going there for years. As always is very beautiful. As always the campsite is clean and well run.The downside is the above inflationary increases in price. We used to be able to go there and pay an average price for camping which would include the use of boats.Now the price of camping is about double of the average. To hire a canoe is now R250 for the day, and one even has to pay for the use of a braai.Although we had a wonderful holiday, we will definitely be looking at alternatives next time. Note although it was school holidays, the campsite was nowhere near full - I'm sure the price issue is the same for a lot of people.

Patrick Cousins

Christiaan Malherbe

We stayed at the southern Ebb and Flow rest camp, in Forest cabins, in the Wilderness. The fact that it is a very neat and beautiful park was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay. On the day where the weather was less than perfect we could easily drive up the N2 to Knysna and Plettenberg bay. Distance was not a probblem.

C ALBERTYN

Dit was die eerste keer dat ons by die Ebb& Flow Ruskamp tuis was. Alhoewel die rondawel sigbaar uit 'n vroeer tyd dateer, was alles netjies en gerieflik. Ons het baie lekker gebly en kon baie goed uitrus. Die natuurskoon was steeds vir ons asemrowend ! Die diens was ook baie goed en die personeel baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.Ons gaan beslis weer daar kom bly.

Mr Lynch

We have stayed at Ebb & Flow on and off for more than 30 years. This visit was charcterised by friendly and efficient staff. Our facilities were clean and well equipped and definitely value for money. Thank you, we will be back.

Louisa

Well maintained camp with friendly staff. Only problem was a very noisy fridge(in rondawel) in otherwise peaceful surroundings.

Mrs. Susan Long

We had a very pleasant stay and I was very impressed by the efficiency and pleasantness we received. A step up to one of the chalets were stayed at was rotten and it broke - we told the folk and it was fixed immediately. The cleaners were very efficient, and helpful. The standard was very good, and we enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Megan Smith

To whom it may concern!We had a fab time and very relaxing!The only few issues we had were the following:- We felt that R100 per hour per canoe was rather steep. Because of this, we did not use the facility.- We did not realise the huts were serviced and so got a bit of a surprise on returning to our hut to find someone had been in there. If we had know this, we would have packed valuables and personal items away. Maybe we missed the fact, but possible it could be made a bit more clear. We are quite private people, so maybe it is just us.- Lastly, a toaster would have been nice to have in the hut.Bedsides that, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come again!

N. Johnston

Me and my husband, My daughter and her friend left Uitenhage late afternoon. My son and his fiancee came from Knysna and as we drove into the Ebb and Flow rest Camp we saw a nice fire going already. We had super nice weather and spent almost the whole Saturday afternoon and early evening in the Touwsriver flowing through the camp. We hired a canoe and the young people visit the waterfall a few kilos down the river. The Saturday morning we went for a drive along the seven passes and visit the market at Karatara and met some of the friendly local people.My husband is a paraplegic and he spoke highly of the special ablution for paraplegics he could use in the camp. The Knysna Loerie came to visit us a few times in the tree at our tent site.This was a weekend well spent. Thank you to all the friendly staff at Ebb and Flow.

Piet Brink

As always we really enjoyed our stay at Ebb & flow. In fact, this time we enjoyed it so much we stayed an extra night! We will definitely go again next time. On our last day they started to repair the damaged jetty, looking forward to see the alterations next year.

Safari.com are the best for your African Safari holiday!

My experience with booking my Southern Africa tour with Safari.com was amazing. The Safari Consultant I was working with (special shout out to Keagan Davids) was the most helpful, responsive, polite and awesome person to work with. I originally tried to book a safari holiday with a local agent in Australia and was getting nowhere fast. I decided to do some leg work myself and put a request in for some advice on safaribooking.com. It was the best thing I could have done! I only wished I had planned my first half of the holiday with Safari.com given the ease and expertise they have provided. I highly recommend their service - you will not be disappointed!

Simply The Best

We are now home from our trip and am writing to thank you for organising such an amazing adventure. We cannot fault anything about the trip from start to finish. Buffalo Camp was fantastic - the accommodation, the food and the hospitality too but most of all our game drive guys who were awesome. We saw the ‘big 5” and more. Slon and Forest went above and beyond to find the animals we wanted to see. Then we transferred to Victoria Falls River Lodge and became part of a family. I can hardly find the words to describe it. From sitting in our plunge pool watching a crocodile swimming up the Zambezi to our helicopter ride over Victoria Falls and everything in between. What a beautiful place run by beautiful people. We were invited back by both Buffalo Camp and Victoria Falls River Lodge and hopefully we can do that in the not too distant future and if it becomes possible we will not hesitate to use Safari.com again. We truly recommend your services. Once again, thank you for organising the best holiday we have ever had and one we shall treasure forever. Best wishes.

Pascal should be your Go-to consultant - 5 stars

Pascal was wonderful to work with. We wanted to stay in Sabi Sands during peak season and were having a lot of trouble finding a great lodge to stay in. Pascal was able to find us a lodge that met our needs, call the lodge to ensure they had the rooms we wanted, book flights, transfers, etc. and was very attentive and easy to talk to. He made sure to get back to us quickly and when he said he would. He was always available and I would recommend using him and safari.com to anyone looking into a safari in the future.

Excellent service.

Yes, you can book directly through SANParks, but safari.com is run by a team of consultants who actually know the parks and provide a far more personalised service. Highly recommended.

Kruger Trip

I booked our SAN Park accommodation with Tanya for our upcoming trip to the Kruger and the whole experience has been a pleasure from start to finish. I altered our itinerary several times and nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend using safari.com and if you are lucky, Tanya will deal with your booking :-)

Superb short Safari

We were referred to Safari.com through a UK safari holiday company. We were dubious at first about dealing with a company in South Africa but we found Safari.com and in particular Mr Keagan Davids, very easy to comunicate with. He was very communicative and made all the necessary arrangements. Unfortunately, the safari lodge we'd booked got flooded out so Keagan found an alternative lodge Called Kapama River Lodge. It was great. Very nice accommodation. Great efficient and friendly staff etc. We were not disappointed. All of the arrangements went like clockwork so we'd highly recommend Safari.com

Booking for Addo Elephant Park…

I made a booking for Addo Elephant Park through Safari.com. The instructions were clearly conveyed to me regarding the payment of a deposit to secure the booking. The service received from the lady I dealt with was very professional. For example, upon requesting a change in accommodation type, the request was promptly attended to and I was informed accordingly which I noticed was outside office hours. Proof of secured accommodation was sent promptly and reminder for payment of balance was send well in advance of final date. Finally, once payment was cleared, I received the booking voucher as well as forms to be filled in by all passengers upon entrance as well as the conservation fees to be paid. All in all it was a pleasure to deal with Safari.com and we are looking forward to our stay in ADDO ELEPHANT PARK. Thank you.

Chantal Young is awesome to plan with!!!

Chantal Young was so nice and accommodating. We were between safari lodges and she really sold us on Dulini with her chill and approachable attitude. She gave us more than enough information while letting us feel like the decision was ours and was flexible to providing multiple options. Can't reccommend her enough!

Spending 40 years in the travel industry and taking several Safari to Kenya, my wife and I reached out to Dolan at Safari.com to help plan our S. African Safari to Kruger. Dolan handled all aspects of the planning including transfers to and from airport, plane reservations and lodging at the 5-star Leopard Hills lodge. With just a couple of emails he made the planning seamless. every aspect was on-time, and all responses were very timely. We can't wait to go back and would highly recommend Dolan at Safari.com

Unorgettable trip in South Africa

We have spent 12 days as a family in South Africa with my 3 children and my wife who is in a wheelchair. Thanks to Pascal, Safari.com consultant, we were able to spend an unforgettable moment with a great program while being well accompanied despite our constraints. I recommand particularly the "Monwana game lodge" for a safari in Hoedspruit. It's an amazing place with very nice people and a real family atmosphere. Thank you to the entire Safari.com team for this unforgettable trip.

Cape Town miracle

I was in Cape Town, South Africa recently for an athletic competition and had allowed myself a week of personal time to relax and properly conclude the trip, but had not bothered to plan a safari to occupy the time. I was skeptical of the cost and whether I would enjoy the experience, however a couple days into that final week it occurred to me, in a bit of a panic attack, what a waste it would be not to take advantage of this opportunity. I hopped online and started looking at flights to Johannesburg (almost all the safaris in SA start there with an early morning pick up), but it was basically impossible to get a flight early enough and/or to coordinate with the multiple safaris operating in or just outside of Kruger. With no apparent options available to turn my remaining 4 1/2 days into even a 3 day safari I stumbled on the most obvious website one could imagine, Safari.com. I'd completely given up negotiating all the variables on my own but here was a safari travel agent that might be able to help me .. and they were based right out of Cape Town, literally a stones throw from my lodgings. Serendipity, or so i hoped. I immediately sent out an email and crossed my fingers .. for roughly an hour and a half, at which point Dolan from Safari.com responded to me requesting I give him a call so that we could expedite potential arrangements. My in country phone plan wasn't able to make calls, but we arranged for him to call me and not 3 hours after being in the grip of despair Dolan got through to me and far from notifying me of how absurd it was to hold out hope for a literally, last minute safari adventure with barely 4 days available to me, he had already worked out all the details I'd sent and created a preliminary safari trip that would bypass Johannesburg airport for a flight the next morning to a closer, much, much smaller airport where I would be picked up taken, not to a 3 day safari, but a full 4 day safari, then back to the tiny, tiny airport for a return flight to Cape Town with 2 hours to spare for my return leg all the way home. It almost feels like an afterthought, after the minor miracle Dolan was able to conjure up, but the safari itself at Simbavati Lodge was just an absolutely stunning experience. The single "tent" he booked me was as luxurious as any 4 star hotel I've stayed in, the game drives, one every morning, one every evening were more amazing than I could have ever imagined, and the food, 3 meals a day with snacks and an open bar was sublime. I could go on about the wonderful staff, or the wonderful other safari goers you can meet and grab a drink with, or the different animals walking through the open lodge facilities daily .. but I've gone on long enough. I'll simply conclude by saying .. safari, absolutely, yes, do it, it is amazing. And when you do decide, Safari.com will do you right and if you have the pleasure of working with Dolan, do give him my thanks .. the entire experience was the best part of my trip :)

A great company

What to say! We planned a South African Safari for 2020 with Safari.com. We researched companies and took a chance on one we had never heard of before. Henry Franklin was our agent, we gave him our budget and wish list. He came up with a wonderful looking trip and we made our choices! Then came Covid, preventing us from going. We couldn’t have been in better hands. Henry rebooked everything for the next year. He kept us updated on how things looked there. When in 2021, we decided it still looked iffy, he rebooked us a second time for 2022. We couldn’t have been happier with the service we had in a rough time for all. We had a wonderful experience on our trip when we finally got to go!! Henry had everything so well organized and gave us a detailed list of what transfer companies would be meeting us and when. When Airlink bumped us and put us on standby returning from Victoria Falls, we called the concierge number Henry had given us and Catherine worked hard on this and got us back on our flight. The Safari.com team had our back and we have no regrets. Would definitely use them again. Our lodging was wonderful, saw the big 5 within first 2 drives. Henry definitely knew the territory and did a great job matching what we wanted with where he suggested we go and stay. Thanks Safari.com, Henry and Catherine!

Superior service, knowledgeable, transparent, amazing can-do attitude

These guys get 10/10. I have booked with them a few times. To Kruger National Park, including both public and private(concession) camps, flights and car hire. Their senior agent, Dolan is exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble. Attention to detail, transparency, and 'can-do' attitude are out of the ordinary. I recently came into contact with Tanya at safari.com as well. It looks like all their agents are similarly well trained. Thank you. I cannot recommend Dolan and his team highly enough.

I've recently interacted with Dolan and hands down he's been the best travel agent that I've every worked with. He was a wealth of experience and knowledge which shows volumes. He took into consideration my budget and my individual needs to tailor make a package with recommendations for my preference,he knows Kruger and Greater Kruger like the back of his hands and I will wholeheartedly recommended his services. He is truly an asset to his institution.

Nelia Nyamhanza

Nelia Nyamhanza, was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and friendly in designing our trip every step of the way. She listened to our request of places we wanted to visit and advised us on what best to do. This made the whole experience wonderful. Every guide from Ilios was eager to share their culture with us and are kind people, as well as, the guide/driver from Elephant Camp, Victoria Falls. We will recommend others to you so that they can be part of your amazing country.

Excellent service by the agent Jayson Scheffers (Africa Safari Expert). We had little idea of the place and things to do. He made it at all soo easy and planned it so well that it all went smooth. We had a baby with us so we were not sure about the things but he advised us well. All the hotels, pickups etc were well informed about our situation and we did not face any issues. He was always there to answer any questions 24/7. Very personalized service. Highly recommended.
