I would highly recommend the tour and would do it again. It is packed but you spent so much time in Kruger NP compared to other tours, it‘s absolutely worth it! The lodges are great and our CEO was super knowledgeable and helpful.

Brilliant, an adventure I’ll never forget.
06/03/2024
I learned so much about the country and my expectations have been exceeded. I thought we might do a safari and every now and then a historic fact will be dropped. Altough I liked the safari and we saw the Big 5, the cultural insights have been astonishing.
06/02/2024
I would recommend Gadventure to everyone ..it was a trip of a lifetime and I am grateful to have met Shawn and I appreciate how he wanted the best experiences for us and wanted us to learn about the culture and people.

This Kruger in Depth tour was a great way to see some of South Africa. From first world Joberg to third world rural communities, you can see ZA successes & places needing improvement. KNP was EVERYTHING we expected.
05/19/2024
A great way to see SA in the time we did. Auther and Allan ensured the group were on time and still got to see all of the best things about The Kruger. The busy tour from Mpho was also interesting.
05/19/2024
This was the experience of a lifetime! Dan and I have loved every minute. The places we visited, the people, the accommodation in Hazyview and Awelani were brilliant. Thanks Aurher for making it the trip of a lifetime.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with G Adventures. Shaun was very helpful and we made the most of ever day fitting as much in as we could. Would definitely use G Adventures again and would recommend to friends and family.
04/09/2024
This was our 3rd trip to Africa but first to Kruger NP. We liked this trip as it was "condensed" so we got to see and do a lot in a short amount of time at a reasonable price.
04/07/2024
I think this trip was the best way to experience Kruger
03/28/2024
I would do this trip again in a heartbeat - in fact, I'm planning to do just that, and organise family and friends on a trip very much like it. I'd use G again, and if we could use Francois again, all the better!
03/14/2024
This is our seventh G Adventures tour. Like all the others, G delivered a professionally organized, quality product with excellent, experienced CEOs (guides). Affordable. Always dependable!
03/13/2024
A wonderful and memorable trip would highly recommend it for both solo travellers and those travelling with someone else - all made so welcome - extensive knowledge and organisation of every aspect of our trip.
