          Enjoy an exhilarating 30 minutes Elephant educational presentation, then enjoy exciting walk with an elephant in the African bush with 3 semi habituated elephants. Totally ethical and totally safe. Elephants are very well trained to walk next to you.Which means the tour guide is also an elephant. We walk where they walk. An incredible experience that you will remember forever. Only 45 minutes drive from Johannesburg.

          Thrilling to be up close to elephants and monkeys
          My guide Bobo was magnificent, he could tell me lots of information about Johannesburg and he was lovely company. The tour with the elephants was thrilling and awe inspiring. And the monkeys were such fun, silly and playful like children. The tour guides were brilliant and so pleasant to everyone. Their English was impecable, even their wonderful humor was in perfect words. The knowledge and politeness was very impressive. I loved it! Ten stars

          Kruger Park with Daniel Clement
          The guide Daniel Clement is the best - very nice, helping and friendly. He showed me Kruger park and drove me there and back. He did a great job!

          Excellent Tour by Virgo
          Virgio Tours made our trip memorable and exciting. Tour guides Colin and Mike were very knowledgeable, friendly and made sure our group of 24 family and friends had a great time. All arrangements were excellent from pick up at airport, hotel, tours and Kruger Park. We saw the big 5. Thank you Mr Clement for making sure we got all that was on the itinerary.

          The Wonder of the Wonder Caves.
          The Wonder Caves are a must see, it's truly a wonder. And the guide, that took us down was really great and made it worth it.

          Great Tour
          Five Star Tour! The tour was very thorough and the tour guide, MK, was fun, high energy, accommodating, patient, and highly informative. We got the "real" tour of Johannesburg and Soweto.

          Please don’t miss this one
          It was a fascinating experience to understand the work of the research centre and that the animals are released into the wild to start their own families. It was amazing to see the cheetahs at so close proximity - their beauty is sublime. The staff are very brave in the way they get so close to wild animals and it was a huge privilege to be in their midst. An amazing experience.

          Good, inexpensive, enjoyable, easy way to see the Cradle of Humankind
          Excellent tour. All very simple and no frills, with a great price to match. We had a good car and careful driver who was helpful and informative. The focus of the tour, the Cradle of Humankind, was well worth seeing. We were very happy with what we got and the price we got it for.

          Great experience with MK
          Really fun especially the local culinary hot spot Kwai Mai Mai (spelling?). MK was really flexible tailoring our experience to what we wanted. 5 stars!

        This tour was a nice introduction and very informative about elephants. Located outside of Pretoria, this sanctuary is in a nice quiet area to do this excursion. Before you interact with the elephants, you get brief information about anatomy, lifecycle, etc.

        When you begin the actual tour, it is quite breathtaking. You get to do a short walk with them through the sanctuary. Then you get to interact, feed, and take photos with them. At first, it looks quite intimidating, but the guides will help you get very comfortable. Definitely, take a lot of photos with them; it definitely is a memory maker.

        Thank you all, from Vergio tours for helping make everything memorable!
