Hello Luanna,
Thank you for your 4-star review and for sharing your lovely feedback following your Kruger to Cape Town tour. We’re so pleased to hear you enjoyed your time in South Africa and found the tour to be a great introduction to this incredible country.
We hope your travels with Bunnik Tours have inspired you to discover more of Africa with us in the future!
Warm regards, Denise Bunnik Tours - Customer Care
South Africa is a beautiful country; this small group tour (7 people were on our tour) is excellent. Jenny Briscoe was an exceptional tour guide and Byron our driver from George to Cape Town was the best. There were plenty of highlights: 2 nights at Kruger Shelati with 4 game drives including excellent meals and all drinks. Botlierskop private game reserve with 4 game drives allowed up close viewing of plenty of animals with an excellent guide. Stellenbosch is a beautiful town with a visit to Rickety Bridge Estate vinery, where we all had a hands-on Potjie cooking class with excellent matching wines. Robben Island (cruise from Cape Town) is fascinating as both of our tour guides were inmates in this brutal Apartheid political prison. A visit to Jane Goodall Institute to "meet" rescued chimpanzees was very pleasant.

Hi Neil,
Thank you for the wonderful 5-star review of your Kruger to Cape Town tour and for sharing your stunning photos.
We're glad you enjoyed the intimacy of the small group, and we’ll definitely pass your praise to Jenny for her exceptional guiding and Byron for his fantastic driving.
It sounds like your trip was an action-packed adventure with unforgettable highlights - from the luxury of Kruger Shalati and the wildlife at Botlierskop, to the hands-on cooking class at Rickety Bridge, the moving history at Robben Island, and meeting the rescued chimpanzees at the Jane Goodall Institute.
We would love to welcome you on another adventure with us in the future.

I’d highly recommend this tour. It was fantastic. The game drives were amazing and the lunches at the wineries were delicious. The accomodation in the game parks was five star luxury

Dear Lesley,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic tour.
Combining the thrill of wild game drives with delicious lunches and special places to stay at night is exactly the magic we aim to create. We are so glad we could deliver that experience for you!
We look forward to welcoming you back on tour with us soon.
The guide, Ubi, was terrific. As were the bus drivers
Bunnik also stepped up when Ubi was injured on the first day and replaced him with another VERY good guide for 2 days. On the spot attention; top marks.
The hotels were all very good, 4-5 star. In fact, the Shalita "Train on the Bridge" is probably the best hotel we have aver stayed in.
The safaris were also highly organised, AND we saw lots of every animal except a male lion. But the truck in front of us got a good shot just after his kill.
The Guides were all highly trained and able to give us history, geology, animal behaviour, cultural detail and answer every question that anyone on the tour could think of.
Food and alcohol allowances were also top shelf. Perhaps the only shortfall was a few more meals to be included, although we understand you are trying to get us out into the population to enjoy a different lifestyle.
To sum up, we paid top dollar and got value for every cent that we spent.

This is a very comprehensive tour with excellent game viewing and wonderful coastal scenery.
We enjoyed the wine areas around Stellenbosch and the fabulous drive down to the Cape of Good Hope. Just six of us on this tour escorted by Jenny our very informative and friendly guide. It is a busy trip but definitely worth it.

The intinerary, accomodation, meals, guides were all of exceptional quality. Very small group, and we did the Victoria Falls extension which I would have liked to be 3 nights rather than 2, because there is so much to see!

As an introduction to South Africa this trip was perfect. Our ten person group of Aussies gelled from the start and we moved seamlessly from each lovely accom to the restaurants and Game Reserves. The standard and prices of food and drink was excellent and well organised. Our guide Jenny was outstanding and was so professional, knowledgeable and thought of everything, including Werther's toffees on the longer drives! Our drivers David and Richard were also very professional, smooth drivers and caring. Well done.

Loved this tour. The itinerary was informative and our guide Jenny really knew her stuff. Enjoyed all the activities. I found the pace of the tour busy but not too frantic with opportunities for free time. The accommodation and included meals were of a high standard. The real stars of the trip though are the beautiful countryside and animals.

Hello Dawn,
Thank you for your 5-star review.
We're so glad to hear that you loved our Kruger to Cape Town small group tour and that Jenny did such a wonderful job.
We do strive to include as much as possible in our itineraries, whilst also allowing enough free time for travelers to have the chance for a little independent exploring, and it's lovely to hear that you believe we have gotten the balance just right!
You are right; the real stars are most definitely the majestic creatures and views on offer - and what wonderful photos you have captured of each - thank you for sharing them with us.
Hopefully, we will welcome you on another Bunnik Tour one day soon!
