Garden Route Safari: Unforgettable 4-Day South African Escape

Frank was an outstanding guide, very Knowledgeable and made our tour extra special. The two hotels and the safari lodge we stayed at were very comfortable and friendly. We appreciated the little extra touches the Garden Route Safari Lodge provided ie a stop for drinks in the evening safari and toasted marshmallows after we came back from the evening safari. With the morning safari we welcomed the hot water bottles and kagools to keep us warm!

The thing that made our tour special was our guide, Mawande. He was organized, helpful, and very knowledgeable. He gave us insights into South Africans beautiful scenery, politics, history and geography. Mawande was a fantastic host and guide. We recommend Bokbus if you are looking for a good value tour that has adventure experiences, safaris, animal encounters nature and coastal scenery and walks.

We came all the way from Korea as newlyweds on our honeymoon trip to South Africa. Chris was truly the best tour guide we could have asked for! He made sure every part of our journey was safe and thoughtfully planned. We learned so much about South African history that we didn’t know before. Chris always made us feel like a priority, and his kindness brought us so much positive energy — it truly made this trip unforgettable for us. Thank you so much, Chris! Baie dankie!

we had a great trip with our guide Mawande. the attractions were simply wonderful, we were able to spend enough time at each sight - but not too much time to get bored - and Mawande explained many interesting facts about the regions we visited. The Game Reserve was fantastic - could have stayed there a full week! We had a great time...

I really enjoyed the tour Mawande our driver gave an excellent commentry along the way and did his best to ensure all members of the group had their needs met and were happy.

I had a fantastic 4-day trip along the Garden Route, and it truly exceeded our expectations! We managed to pack so much into a short time, and our guide, Mawande, made the experience unforgettable. His knowledge is exceptional, and he brought each location and attraction to life with fascinating stories. From the charming seaside towns to the thrilling game drive, to the unforgettable experience of seeing elephants and zip-lining – every day was a new adventure. We loved every moment of this trip and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore this beautiful region!

The tour was good but the tour guide/bus driver was 90% bus driver. We really did not learn much about what we saw

Very nice 4-day tour. Compact, well organized, top sights and with a lots of information. Our driver Mawande was very nice, punctual and flexible. Highly recommendable Cristiane
