Safari ride was great! We saw so many animals. Zebras, elephants, lions, white, rhino, rhino, etc. Food at breakfast and lunch was very good. Our driver. Jacques did all he could to please us and was a very good driver!
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the safari and got to see such an incredible variety of animals. It’s also great to know that the meals and Jacques’ efforts made the day even more enjoyable. We truly appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon.
Our driver was nice, prompt and friendly. He picked us up at 7am at the hotel in Cape Town. When we got to the park we were supposed to be there at 7am and there was no booking for us. I managed to talk my way around the receptionist who did not want to let us go on the safari because we missed it. Terrible communication from the tour operator. We missed most of the breakfast because we were late arriving- not our fault or the drivers- it was the tour operators instruction. There was very little left on the buffet. They did not want to let us have lunch. Went to the winery and they had no booking for us there- had to talk them around as well. For the price you pay for this tour, you should not have to be negotiating with people for entry.
Dear Jadei, We apologize for the miscommunication that impacted your safari and dining experiences. We're addressing internal processes to prevent such incidents in the future. Your feedback is valued, and we're committed to improving our services. Sincerely, ZETT Management
This trip was so relaxing and instructor was very informative, while also giving my family & I time to take in the scenery. Would highly recommend.
