Travelling with children in South Africa will bring out your inner child, as you go from A for Anaconda to Z for Zebra via a whole encyclopaedia of wildlife in between. You’ll be counting too: not just one lion, two leopards, three elephants, four black rhinos and five African buffalos (you really will see the Big Five) but six - the number of springbok you’ll spot in one soaring leap, and an almost infinite number of animals you’ll tick off in one day. South Africa family holidays offer history lessons too, in a visit to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned, and more natural history
as you discover the seal and penguin colonies of the Cape. Taking your children to South Africa is a delightful education for all the family.

To say we had the holiday of a lifetime would be an understatement. The attention to detail was unbelievable and it's those things that helped contribute to the great time we had. Given my brief was pretty vague(!), you did an incredible job at creating the most magical of holidays. I could wax lyrical about all the amazing things we saw and did but I won't bore you. But suffice to say, it really surpassed all of our expectations and then some! My husband loved it and both boys have got some memories that will last them a lifetime. The team (and I mean a team!) listened to my rather vague ideas and came up with a wonderful plan for my holiday, which had a significant meaning and they were really respectful of that. Their attention to detail was fantastic, their communication was great and the holiday itself was wonderful in every way. They even handled my last-minute panic (my son was ill 48 hours before we were due to travel!) with calmness, reassuring me and putting an alternative plan into place, should we have needed it (thankfully we didn't!). I would not hesitate to recommend them or indeed use them again. The only downside - they have rather spoilt me for holidays as I only want to do big, 'holidays of a lifetime' with them....! Incredible on every level. The locations, the staff, the resorts, the little touches, the smooth transitions, the planning, the detail - just fantastic.
