  Toby did a fantastic job listening to our requests for our first adventure in South Africa. We could not have asked for a better experience. We visited Vic Falls, 3 Game reserves as well as Cape town and vineyards. All logistics of the trip were flawless and would highly recommend Sights of Africa.The trip truly did exceed our expectations, which I can rarely say about any travel we have taken.Laurette K

  Toby and Hayden set up an unforgettable two week African adventure for our visit. The South Africa tour/safari covered four National Game Reserves (Isimangaliso, Hluhluwe Imfolozi, Ithala, and Pilanesberg). We were also treated to unexpected stops such as a side trip to see and step into the Indian Ocean. Hayden's knowledge of the animal and plant life was outstanding, as was his ability to get us to the best locations for seeing as much wildlife as possible. His guiding allowed us to see all of the Big 5 during our visit! The accommodations for each evening were excellent, as was the dinning. I cannot say enough to express how satisfied I was with Outdoor Africa's work on this once in a lifetime experience. Thank you Hayden and Toby!

  My 14 day safari with Outdoor Africa exceeded all my expectations. Outdoor Africa put together a wonderful tour, staying in a variety of reserves. Hayden was a fantastic guide, and much of the success of the trip was due to his skill in finding animals. During this time of Covid, I also appreciated all the precautions taken to keep us safe. If I have the opportunity to return to Africa, I will definitely use Outdoor Africa again.

  Hayden Elliott was our guide for a one-day trip through the Hluhluwe Imfolozi Park. We thoroughly enjoyed Hayden's company and his knowledge of the environment, birds and animals. What a great day!

  Outdoor Africa's US partner, Toby, designed a perfect itinerary and proficiently coordinated every detail of our trip, rendering it flawless. BEST. TOUR DIRECTOR. EVER.River provided an adventurous, personal, most-fun-ever guided safari that imparted a soul-stirring experience. He had our back every step of the way so that we felt safe, confident and secure. He is an extraordinary young man of great experience, diverse knowledge, passion for the animals and environment, personable, FUN, witty, warm, caring, good looking. Outdoor Africa truly has a gem! BEST. GUIDE. EVER.Whatever your South Africa dream trip includes, Toby can fulfill it. South Africa is both Hayden's and River's homeland and with their connections, they have privileges and access to restricted areas that others do not.Blyde Wildlife Estates is a beautiful and quiet place to stay. Satara Camp, Lower Sabie, Swaziland, and Hilltop Camp have unique, traditional, comfortable accommodations. Royal Thonga in Tembe features GREAT people -- GuGu, Vesi, Caesar, Bongo -- and is luxurious and intimate with only 14 guest chalets.Bruce and Ann, Underberg Guest House (Cape Town), are warm and welcoming. Their guest house is beautiful and luxurious, too. Cape Town's Table Mountain is amazing but you need a Plan B since it's only open weather permitting. Our Plan B was a drive along the coastline to the southernmost point of Africa, visiting the Penguin Colony, and tasting wine at Steenberg Winery.Being a World Heritage site, Victoria Falls is a must-see spectacular destination! Raincoats are recommended but it's a personal choice. Personally, I would forgo it, at least during hot weather, since it's refreshing and you'll dry quickly. Kingdom Hotel provides excellent lodging and is a short walk to the falls. Botswana's Chobe National Park is another great, highly recommended activity that's not too far from Vic Falls.New friends at Africa Sky Guest House in Johannesburg are favorites as well as the guest house itself. Gilbert, the wonderful driver, Leoni at the front desk, Queen and Johanna in the dining room, make it an awesome home away from home!
