    Everything we expected, saw lots of animals and driver was very knowledgeable, he was dead set on finding lions but we never did, wish instead of trying to find lions we could have spent a little more time with the elephants but it is what it is

    I only had one full day in Johannesburg, so this tour was perfect! It's very comprehensive and covers so much of the city! You really have a good overall impression and overview of the city and its districts afterwards.
    We learnt so much about the city, the history and present day situation.
    Especially if you're on a tight schedule I could not recommend this tour enough!
    Also really good value for money.
    Great hotel pick up and drop off, also perfect safety.

    Paster is a lovely funny guy and extremely well informed. I absolutely loved the four hours we spent with him on our Johannesburg tour travelling around the city and meeting people who greeted us with a smile and a welcome. I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn about this country and the people who have lived through such difficult times. As Pastor said he’s optimistic for the future of South Africa - with people like him so are we! 👍🏻

    Very nice excursion. The driver who picked us at the hotel was very friendly. The guide gave us lots of explanations during the tour and we saw many lions, cheetahs, hyenas etc...
    Great moment !

    I am a woman who loves to travel alone around the world.
    I booked this tour and I was very blessed to have such a nice guide, NATI was extremely professional, respectful and full of knowledge.
    I was the only person but in Pilanesberg I merge with a group of ladies who were flight attendants and they were traveling together, we enjoyed together, shared and laughed the whole day, also this was the only place in South Africa that I saw the big five (lion, leopard YES!!! we saw a leopard, rhino, elephant and African buffalo.
    Everything was phenomenal and this was a tour I will never forget.
    This company is super responsible they keep in touch with you, they picked me up at my hotel and dropped me of there.

    Where do I begin? This was the most amazing experience and it was completely because of The Essence of Travel and Stephenson Adventures! 10 out of 10, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

    Our tour guide was simply the best, he felt like a family member from the very beginning. He was very welcoming and accommodating to ensure we had the best experience in Africa. I really wanted some art work and he not only took us to a market to get art, he also helped us get it back to the States safely.

    He was very knowledgeable on the history and locations and ensured we got the most out of the time we were in Johannesburg. We were very thankful that even when the tour was over he was able to give us recommendations to ensure our evening/night was enjoyable.

    Go ahead and book now, you will not be disappointed.

    Translation: A reliable and humorous tour guide, cycling through Soweto is a great choice. Since I was the only one on the bike tour, I asked him to take me to the best places for street photography, and I took many satisfying photos. Without him, I wouldn't have had the courage to take out my camera. He was able to solve any problems that arose during the photo-taking process. If you are a photography enthusiast, you should consider joining.

    Jo'burg Hop-on-Hop-off is easy and we recommend this. Sightseeing - the highlights in one day.
    Roundtour, attractions and shopping malls. We liked it a lot

    Full Day Pilanesberg Experience with Alex was one of the best experiences in South Africa so far. He is a really great driver and told us a lot of interesting stories and information which enhanced our Pilanesberg experience.

    Our visits to Soweto and the Apartheid Museum were great experiences, both very eye-opening and educational. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and told us all about the good, bad ,and ugly parts of South African history. The tour was a very comfortable pace and we never felt rushed. Highly recommend!

    Gilda is an extraordinary guide. She gave us deep insight into the people and history of Soweto, which changed my entire experience of this country. We saw sights and locations (Mandela's home, KlipTown, etc) through the eyes of people who live there, whose stories are remarkable. As a result of Gilda's guidance, we instantly felt at home, at ease, connected to the joy and strength of this community. Do not miss this opportunity!

    The staff were very welcoming, the itinerary was well Managed , the accommodation was as expected
    I do feel a bottle of water or juice should be offered with the meals . Also feel that the meals although very tasty, portion sizes are a little on the small side . There is option to have more, however in a crowd it is embarrassing for the consumer to get up and ask .
    Overall a very good well organised experience
    It would also be nice if the staff offered to help with the luggage when taking you to your place of stay within the camps
