This is one of our favorite memories from our trip to South Africa. Marilyn and Norman were outstanding at spotting the beautiful animals at Schotia. We saw so many and had an amazing experience, I would highly recommend.

Identical experience as cruise line choice. Except only 5 cruisers in our vehicle driven by knowledgeable guide who was aware of where to find specific animals (often knew their names). And, oh by the way, less than half the price of the cruise line.

This game reserve safari proved to be an exciting and educational experience. Traveling in small groups aboard 4x4 vehicles allowed us to navigate the natural terrain with ease and observe wildlife in its authentic environment. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable about the ecosystem, animal behavior, and conservation efforts, and he worked diligently to position us for close-up views of as many species as possible.
Although I was slightly disappointed not to encounter an elephant on this particular outing, we were fortunate enough to see the remainder of the famed “Big Five,” as well as many other remarkable animals. One of the highlights of the day was spotting a baby rhinoceros—an unforgettable moment and a rare privilege considering the species’ vulnerable status.
Because this was a full-day excursion, the company provided a simple but satisfying lunch, including sandwiches, chips, chocolate bars, and drinks. I captured numerous photos throughout the day, many of which I will cherish as lifelong memories. Overall, the experience was well-organized, immersive, and rewarding. I would not hesitate to join this tour again.

A fabulous tour with Elaine from Sunday River Tours. She collected us from the ship and took us to Scotia where we changed to the open safari vehicle. A great safari area. We saw the Big5 (minus leopard). Enjoyed a good lunch too. Elaine was a great interesting guide. It was a small group tour but just the two of us. One comment was that the communication could have been better.

Excellent tour. Well managed. Lots to see including four of the big five (no leopards). Really recommended.

The trip was ok but we missed the most we wanted to see is the lions and the elephants. People on the same tour but on different 4x4s , and guides, got to see them. So the animals were there but our guide failed to listen to the animal sightings from other guides and acted on them. Also they did not have radio to communicate with other guides. Very sloppy operations

Extremely unorganized, we’re not on time To pickup us on the port and we had take a taxi to the meeting point. We paid 200dlls more. I don’t recommend this service

Marilyn was a brilliant guide and driver. Superb safari.
Markus_S, May 2024
Habe nicht erwartet daß ich so viele Tiere zu sehen bekomme. Wurde nicht enttäuscht. Im Gegenteil. Zebras, Strauße, Nilpferde, Löwen, Elefanten, Springböcke, Giraffen , Krokodile, usw. Es war unglaublich. Die Reiseleiterin Marilyn hatte sehr viel Fachwissen war nett und freundlich. Genauso wie das restliche Personal. Würde ich sofort wieder machen.
