Start TestimonialThe trip was incredible! The accommodation, staff and facilities at Hilltop were beyond our expectations. As it turns out we were able to do two jeep tours as they allowed children 4 and up. It was incredible. Saw everything except the large cats (it was quite warm the days we were there). Absolutely zero complaints. They had us in one of the cottages at the very end of the row so the feeling was that we were the only building out there. We didnt do a great job stocking up on groceries before arriving at the camp so we used the restaurant for almost every meal...great food and service. I cannot speak highly enough about our experience at Hilltop. Many thanks for all your help in making our trip to RSA so wonderful! We will be sure to contact you again when we travel there in another 5 years... End Testimonial

A FEATHER

Start TestimonialWe had a tremendous time in South Africa, and really enjoyed the itinerary you put together for us. I was a bit sceptical about Simunye, but it turned out to be an absolutely fascinating stay - from the dancing, to the horse riding to the tales told around the fire ... Hluhluwe was also absolutely brilliant - teeming with wild-life (though no lions or leopards!) and extremely comfortable accomadation and friendly and knowledgeable staff. In short we all fell in love with South Africa, and I would like to thank you specially for using your experience to point us in the right directions. It was a holiday of a life-time, and thank you so much for putting it all together. We will recommend you without hesitation if anyone is looking for travel help!End Testimonial
