My husband and I took the South Africa trip in March, 2023. Wow, is the first word that comes to mind! We felt well looked after from our Approach Guru Diana and Deon our local guide. Everything from the breathtaking scenery, to the animals (we saw the big 5), to the people in our group and the South Africans, made it truly the trip of a lifetime! We would definitely use Approach to holiday again.

My husband and I were searching for a way to celebrate our 50^th wedding anniversary when we came across Approach Tours South Africa & Victoria Falls tour it seemed perfect. Boy was it ever! When they say all-inclusive they really mean it, the only expenses we incurred were alcoholic drinks and souvenirs. The itinerary was packed full of history, culture, beautiful landscapes, and awe-inspiring safaris. Accommodations were so varied and fun from big city hotels to safari camp glamping. It was the attention to detail and the personal touches, that will keep us coming back to Approach. Having our group guru Caroline was such a blessing, she made sure everything ran smoothly from hotel changes to bus trips to border crossings and visas solving any hiccups before we even recognized them as an issue. But it was her ability to learn the wishes of every tour member to make each and every one of us experience an amazing trip. The party she organized for our anniversary day will stay with us until we take our last breaths! By the end of the tour we made 30 new friends and travel companions! We would say it was a trip of a lifetime but we plan many more trips with Approach so we now look forward to lots of epic trips in the future! Thank you Approach and dear travel companion Caroline!

Just got back a few days ago from a 20-day tour to South Africa. It was very well designed and we did a lot of safaris as well as toured historical sites. I have special dietary needs and the guide made sure I was taken care of and food prepared to my needs. Our Guru Caroline came up with an unexpected stop to see how people live in small villages. No show, just reality. Very humbling. I would highly recommend Approach Tours to anyone looking to travel. They are prompt in answering questions and in assisting in your booking.

My husband and I just got back from the Approach Tours’ 20-day South Africa & Victoria Falls tour. We want to thank Approach Tours for providing us with the vacation of a lifetime. Approach came through all the way…so much food, safaris galore, animal sightings galore, and so much cultural entertainment and education. And, all tipping included!!! Awesome trip! Thank you Approach Tours.

Just returned from the South Africa & Victoria Falls Tour. It exceeded our expectations in every respect. We enjoyed 8 land as well as 2 water safaris. What an incredible experience to be so close to the wildlife in their environments. We learned about local culture. It was a wonderful opportunity to have a local guide in addition to our group guru. All of our accommodations were excellent as well as the meals. This was the first organized tour we had taken in years. We are so glad we did because we never would have seen all the amazing things we did on our own. We are already wondering where we will go next with Approach Tours.

Our trip to South Africa, with “Guru” Caroline Goheen, was superb. This was our 3^rd trip with Approach & we will book again. Fabulous service, truly “all-inclusive” (except alcoholic beverages), with all planning & bookings handled by Approach. We enjoyed new experiences every day, tours with knowledgeable local guides & exciting safaris. With 30 on this tour, all went smoothly. It was a trip of a lifetime. Thank you for your kind support & skilled leadership. ‘ Till we meet again!

Just back from the South Africa trip. An amazing trip of a lifetime. My husband whispered to me after 1 of the safaris, that deciding to go on this trip was the 2^nd best decision I had made. Marrying him was the 1^st best decision.

We recently returned from our African adventure with Approach Tours. We had an intensive and exciting trip, learning from our local guide, Mark, and sharing many experiences with our travel mates. Our Guru was super, always participating, personable and thoughtful! From our home pickup, until our driver found us at the airport to deliver us safely home, we had a great time! We hope to travel again with Approach Tours and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to our friends. We felt we received excellent value for the tour price.

Where to start?! There was no disappointments. Loved the Safaris and seeing all the animals. Loved the visits to learn about their cultures. Also loved seeing penguins, ostriches, etc… Drives to and from locations were very nice also.

Certainly seeing the “Big Five” was mainly the reason for this trip, however, the sights and sounds observed made this trip even better. We never thought South Africa was as we saw it. Thinking of Africa, one doesn’t think of mountains, trees, flowers, etc. What a beautiful country we are so happy to have seen it.

We loved loved loved the Safaris! We never tired of seeing more of the “Big Five”, and the others were a bonus. Each Safari, land and water were quite different. We were a bit nervous about sleeping in tents, but loved the “glamping”.

The time spent at Shiduli Lodge & Karongwe was time well spent. The safaris were breathtaking, and we went on a great Chobe River cruise too. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and always a step ahead. The best part was everything being organized, including meals and tipping. Overall, a wonderful experience with a great group of travellers. Highly recommend it!

Excellent guide! With knowledge of history, geography, and wonderful organizational skills! The safari and animal experiences in Chobe National park were amazing. Surprise celebratory drinks provided by Joe were a nice gift. The farewell supper was very well planned.

Safaris were awesome. Private game reserves & Chobe National Park were spectacular. Loved the diversity of the landscapes all the way from Cape Town to Victoria Falls. Ocean, rivers, mountains, vineyards, canyons & more. Accommodations were exceptional. Overall I loved this trip!

Very appreciative of “all-inclusive” tour – 3 meals a day, drive to/from airport, tipping, etc. – less to be concerned about. Safaris – massive herd of elephants on return from Botswana. Bourke’s Luck Potholes. African Sunset. River cruise (safari) in Botswana very pleasant way to spend a very warm afternoon. Happy with # of people on tour. Thank you for extra surprises during tour (candles, drinks, treats)! On whole, very very pleased.

Just came back from a spectacular adventure in South Africa, Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Best cost for a single supplement. All-inclusive… means all our needs and wants were taken care of…Guru Kosta and Travel Guide Mark were wonderful and professional at all times. I felt very safe and confident as our Drivers were very experienced. I highly recommend Approach Tours.
