AMAZING SUNWAY SAFARIS

Too many "peak" experiences to choose only one.... walking with rhinos, watching concurrent sunset and moonrise (full moon!) in the Okavango, night safari with lions and spring hares.... but I think my favorite was the night in Miombo when we arrived back from night safari to find the elephants visiting the watering hole, which was directly across from our tent... After watching them for a couple of hours, they decided the trees on our side of the road were better than those at the watering hole, so they strolled across the way and wandered around our tent, munching as they went. One mama walked up to the front porch of the tent while we watched from the doorway, plucked a few vinca flowers from the verge, then raised her trunk and explored the edge of the porch and just looked and sniffed at us there in the doorway for about 10 minutes. It was magical, dreamlike- so real and yet so unbelievable! Afterwards our guide asked if we were frightened, but honestly we were so awestruck we just didn't think about being afraid. It just seemed so clear that they were curious about us (and our strange smell I expect!), and it was a moment of connection across continents and species that I will treasure forever. And of course it never occurred to me to take a photo-- totally caught up in the moment!!

Dear Minette,
I hope this email finds you well?
Our trip is over and we are back to Barcelona.

I wanted to thank you for your assistance and for the perfect organisation of the tour.
It was a wonderful experience.
Be sure I will use your services in the future.
Thanks,
Margherita
Dear Team, I hope this email finds you well. I have just returned home from my Namibia/Botswana/Zimbabwe tour and I wish to provide my feedback. I want to congratulate with you for the selection of lodges and beautiful places you allowed me to visit but especially I want to congratulate with you for our guides. We have been guided by Shenly and Markus and I can say that we could not have had better guides. They have been professional, caring, proactive, smart. They know a lot about the places that we have visited. They are great cookers and very well equipped and organized. They have gone much beyond my expectations and for any next trip I will book with you, they will definitely be my first choice as they made the difference for this trip. Despite being a varied group with different ages, they have done their best to accommodate everybody with their request. I have liked everything including the red truck (which we renamed Ferrari Testa Rossa). I hope to use your services in the future very soon! Kindest Regards, Margherita

Thanks for the welcome and also a big thank you for proposing to join this tour.

In fact we had incredible lots of amazing and particular moments and fell in love with Southafrica. I do not know what highlight to emphasize …as the tour was absolutely gorgeous - even far beyond my expectations. Great guides ( Moses and Tawanda), wonderful people in the group, breath taking landscapes, perfect locations (each of them with unique character) and of course a singular flora and fauna. With a lot of good luck on our game drives we saw not only the big 5 but also wild dogs and an Aardfark. Enjoying good weather and wonderful accomodations and food we have had a fantastic time. An accomodation highlight was surely the Mawuka lodge with their friendly hosts, first class cooking, romantic ambiente and a cosy fireplace.

I can only fully recommend this tour as it was simply perfect. The guides have been very committed taking care of the group and each single participant - arranging everything to meet the individual needs of each participant (medical assistance, vegetarian food, individual hikes, separate beds and much more.). We learned so much interesting about animals and plants, African culture and history, gained new experiences, exchanged thoughts and enjoyed the time as a group.
In the end we have left with a lot of beautiful memories, inspiring ideas and impressions, photos, videos and the strong feeling that we will return to this fascinating rainbow nation whenever possible.

Thanks,
Anja

Hi Chemone,
We had a wonderful trip. It had been a dream of ours for a long time and Sunway was able to pull it off within our budget. My best moment was the 3.5 hour game viewing walk after arriving at camp in the Okavango Delta. The guide was incredible and all of the local's respect for the animals was amazing. The guide explained why we did not need a rifle for protection, if we followed the rules. I was so impressed.
To be honest, the "big 5" was not important to us. We just wanted to soak in the whole experience, which we did.
Thanks again for all your help.

"Thanks for reaching out.
I had an amazing experience and will recommend it to everyone I know.
We were so lucky having an amazing group spirit and our two guides were just the best.
We had so much fun, had the most beautiful animal encounters, met such welcoming and wonderful locals on our way!
The most amazing moment was our rhino walk in Matopos in Zimbabwe. I will never forget that moment when we walked in 3 meters distance with Rhino Mama Lisa and her calf KoiKoi. Such precious animals and truly magical. So I’ll always hold that in my heart and will always remember our guide Blessing and all the Rangers, who work and live there to protect the Rhinos from Poachers. And also every guide that we had, local or from our tour company, always held safe and respectful distance to every animal to not invade their privacy. Although they of course tried to get as close as possible to give us the best experience.
And I highly appreciate that, because it’s still wildlife and it’s still their natural habitat and not ours.
So all in all it was truly magical and I’m more than happy to maybe try another route next time.

Lots of love!
Jennifer

Hi Minette

I am back to work today which was hard to be honest . We had the most amazing time and Sunway’s Safaris, and our 2 guides (Ali and Edwin) took amazing care of us. We had a really great group of people on our tour and felt safe at all times. A lot of the accommodations had these little small surprises like the hide and little walks, outside showers and beautiful locations. At Wengi Elephants came to the watering hole and were eating trees right behind my tent. What will stay with me for always is the camping at Okavango Delta and the walking safaris.

Thank you so much for all your support and help. We had the time of our life and so grateful to you for everything.
Kind regards
Leanne Erickson
