Africa Collection Traveller Reviews

We visited Cape Town for 4 nights including an england cricket match at Newlands, then on to Franshhoeck for 3 nights, then Camps Bay for 4 nights and finally Durban for 3 nights again taking in a cricket match.

Africa Collection organised all the details of the holiday and it all went without a hitch.

10 day holiday in Cape Town to watch the 2nd Test Match, plus a couple of days afterwards sightseeing.

I booked my Cape Town hotel / transfers / 2nd Test Match hospitality cricket tickets all through Africa Collection (flights I had already booked prior to contacting them). Throughout the whole process, from the original inquiry through to being over in Cape Town, everything was well organised and made the trip memorable.

A superb trip to South Africa to watch 3 days of the 2nd Test match in Cape Town, a trip to Franschoek for a couple of days to experience some of their excellent wines. Then 3 days at Plettenberg Bay with time on the beach and a trip out in the bay to watch dolphins and seals. Finally a memorable experience at Sibuya Game Reserve where we saw Lions, Elephants, Rhinos, Giraffe and many other species. Superb accommodation everywhere,

Africa Collection arranged everything very professionally. No hiccoughs in any of the transfers or pick ups , all went very smoothly.

10 nights in Cape Town, 3 nights on safari in Eastern Cape, 1 night in Johannesburg, 2 nights at Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.

Africa Collection . Fantastic service from their Chania Hemsley-Smith.

14 night tour late September - the best time of the year for the whale watching, not too hot for Cape Town, spring coming to the Garden Route and Safari areas. We enjoyed the mix of planning our own time in Cape Town, joining a guided tour of the Garden Route and saving the best to last - the fabulous Shamwari private conservation game reserve.

Africa Collection were used by our travel agent. It took a couple of times to get the itinerary right as some of our requests had not been picked up on and there was some confusion with dates. That did not matter as our travel agent dealt with all the dialogue and we got what we wanted in the end. Impressed with the detailed itinerary, travel instructions and other information we were sent.

Flying from Heathrow we had 5 days in Cape Town seeing the sights, followed by 3 nights at Pumba Private Game Reserve, near Port Elizabeth. Cape Town was lovely, easy to find our way around & plenty to see and do. The highlight for us was definitely Pumba. We a mixed age group this was something that the whole family absolutely loved. Pumba itself was fabulous, the staff, the amenities and the location. The guide, Josh, and the game drives were sensational, almost too good to be true. We saw animals that we usually only seeing with David Attenborough narrating in the background! Would highly recommend to anyone, whatever age group.

Everything we could have required was provided. All the documentation was great, incredibly informative and allowed us to be confident as soon as we landed. We knew who would be meeting us, where were going, and had utmost confidence in the entire itinerary.

Family holiday travelling the garden route from cape Town to Port Elisabeth. The scenery was spectacular, the food excellent and the people so friendly. The holiday was enjoyed by all and will be remembered for a very long time,

Africa Collection organised the trip on behalf of my UK travel agent Balwins Travel. Both were excellent. We picked up the car from the airport without difficulty and travelled to our first stop in Capet Town . The accommodation received a wow from the kids but this was surpassed at very stop on the route. Very impressed with the accommodation AC had chosen for us. All organisation, documentation and advice very efficiently arranged

We had the most fantastic holiday in South Africa, organised by Rebecca at Africa Collection. We flew to Jo-berg and from there to Kruger Airport where we picked up a car and drove to Rissington Inn near Hazyview for 4 nights. The Inn is set in wonderful surroundings and the owner and staff were incredibly helpful. From there we drove to Rhino Post Safari lodge for 4 nights. The lodge is set in Kruger National Nature Reserve which is just amazing, on the early morning and late afternoon/evening drives we saw so many animals and birds, the guides were incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about their environment. The accommodation and food was great as were all the staff. From there we drove through Kruger and out to Hoedspruit where we stayed at Khaya Ndlovu Manor House which was situated in a private game reserve. The house was in the most beautiful setting, the staff again were lovely and the room superb. From there we were able to access the Blyde River Canyon area which has so much to offer. The Manor House also offers game drives if you want them, we went on a bush walk with a guide who was incredibly knowledgeable and full of amazing information.

Rebecca was very helpful from the outset. She listened carefully to what we wanted and tailored the holiday around our specific needs. She was always very helpful when we asked questions.

Starting off in Cape Town we travelled to Franschhoek, then on up the Garden Route staying in Knysna, Plettenberg Bay and Pumba Game Reserve.

We booked through Feherty Travel, Bangor, Northern Ireland who used Africa Collection as the operator. All five of our locations were excellent and helped us to have a relaxing holiday which added to the overall experience.

60th birthday celebrations for my husband. Cape Town, Winelands, Safari and seaside. Fantastic!

Everything had been thought through and the information provided was excellent, even down to directions to get from A to B etc. All the accommodation was of the highest standard. Would recommend anyone going to Africa to book with them.
