Run away

evelyn_o, Nov 2023
The driver Freddy was excellent, he went out of his way to make our experience good. The vehicle the tour operator gave him was brand new. But totally unsatisfactory as a safari viewing vehicle. We sat in the back of the van, it had no windows that opened. The passengers up front opened there windows to get photos. But then the hot air came in and went into the back of the van. We roasted back there like a turkey in the oven. Very unpleasant!! Don't use the van for your safari, insist on something better.

Disapponting

Judy_G, Oct 2019
The company Viator used had good communication and was on time for the early pick-up. The driver was friendly and accommodating, however, no where was it mentioned that it would not be a safari vehicle but a mini van. The windows in the middle and back seats did not open so could not get good photos if you sat in those seats and I was in the back seat so did not get any good shots.

Not what I expected

I looked forward to the open van drive through the park, however, that van was not OPEN! The picture in your advertisement showed an open van.It was closed and the back windows didn’t open . My group of 5 was very disappointed some wanted their money back an leave but the ride to the park had been 3hrs long. We had no choice. The guide for 1st Zulu tours was great ! Very knowledgeable,
