“The tour I had booked at African Overland Tours exceeded my expectations - it was great fun with many great experiences. Before, during and after the booking I felt so well informed, consulted and supported by Huntley Cronje (Thanks to you again!) who answered all my (countless) questions with his outstanding friendlyness. Booking, payment, the journey... everything went very smoothly without troubles or anything. You helped me to enjoy a perfect adventure!”

“Grest trip, from Ruanda to South Africa in two months. The highlights were the gorilla trekking, the Masai’s Game Reserve, the Serengueti, Namibia’s dunes and Paarl’s wine tasting, as the perfect way to end a very long journey. I recommed this tour; it’s very well organized and the staff is very helpful at all times. I suggest to improve the quality and quantity of food as an overall; and avoid using the services of Sky Hotel in Kampala (unhealthy and bad in general). Thank you very much for such a great experience!”

“An African overland tour is a must! There is so much to see and experience. Wildlife sightings were a regular thing not just on game drives, absolutely spectacular! I would love to doit all over again!!”

“Nicky was extremely helpful finding a tour that fit my schedule. The operator was Sunway. Zandre and Collin were knowledgeable, friendly, very helpful & good cooks. I had a lot of fun and hopefully was decent company for 3 weeks. Suggestions: 1) Put sun shades in the red elephant - since there were only 4 of us, we could move around away from the sun. 2) Buy Zandre: 1 or 2 decent (ceramic blade) vegetable peelers, a third dish basin (dirty, wash,& rinse) & a French Press for brewed coffee (I finally bought my own)”

“Great crew led by our tour leader, Will. Martin the chef cooked the best food for camping; better than most restaurants and France the driver always got us quickly to our next destination. The best crew when compared to past overland crews - I did several legs in East Africa 3 years ago. Kruger, Delta and Chobe were highlights. Amazing trip.”
