From the moment we touched down in Johannesburg through our safari at Simbavati then onto CapeTown and finishing with a few days in the Winelands Safari Partners provided us with an outstanding experience in every respect. They arranged for great boutique accommodation that just kept getting better and better as the trip went along. It finished with perhaps the best resort hotel experience even the most experienced traveler has ever had with our stay in Babylonstonen.
This does not mean any of the other accommodations were less than outstanding and in fact they each were superlative in their own right. Of particular note was the time we spent on safari at Simbavati where we saw literally every animal it was possible to see over a three day period. This included lions (including cubs, lionesses as well as lions), elephants, rhinos, three different Leopards (normally you are lucky to see one), water buffalo, hippos, warthogs, wildebeast, springbok, impala, springbok and many others.
We had excellent guides in both Johannesburg and Capetown who went way beyond our expectations. Service at the hotels was outstanding, the meals uniformly both excellent and reasonably priced.
We cannot say enough positive things about our time in South Africa courtesy of Safari Partners and at the end we all want to come back to this beautiful land and its warm and wonderful people. Link to This Review
