Reviews & FeedbackI wanted to let you know what a wonderful trip you organised for myself and my husband in July.  Our three destination trip workedseamlessly from pick up in Cape Town right through to our return.  Our hotel in Cape Town was excellent and well located.  The staff “on theground” were excellent, especially in Cape Town and the excursions were first class.  The Game Lodge was awesome and delivered in everyrespect - would definitely return - great accommodation, a surfeit of wonderful food and fabulous game viewing from friendly and experiencedteam.  Our trip was completed with a visit to Victoria Falls in Zambia. The location was excellent both for the Falls and all the activities in thisregion.  Again the pre-booked activities did not disappoint and the hotel was luxurious.  Thank you Safari Addicts - we will be booking againand would not hesitate to recommend you to others.

Mario & Lorna

We had a lovely time in South Africa & Victoria Falls - many thanks for organising - we loved all our locations. Our camp in Sabi Sandsexceeded expectations in terms of accommodation and game viewing - saw the Big 5 on many occasions and much more ... Also really likedElephant Camp and Victoria Falls was as spectacular as we had imagined. No complaints and no regrets - just great memories!   Manythanks again, especially for the treat at our last camp to mark my birthday celebrations - much appreciated.
