our guide was completely professional and supply bottle water two both myself. He was 15 minutes early, so we were able to leave right away. the car was clean and appeared new. The guide was knowledgeable and well informed. He drove safely and obeyed all traffic laws. the safari was enjoyable and we saw all the animals as advertised. I would recommend this for everyone.

My husband and I came for Afternoon Tea on our last day in Cape Town. The setting is stunning, and the food was divine. Emma took great care of us, ensuring our tea was never empty and our bellies stayed full. The spinach and coconut soup was not a favorite, but everything else was amazing.

While we enjoyed the complimentary welcome drink, our lunch, and the environment of the place; we came on the trip to see and photograph the animals. The best seats on the vehicle we went around the park were by far on the right-hand side of the vehicle. We were seated on the left side, and while the driver tried to be fair, nearly all of the animals were on the other side so we had to wait for those with better seats on the rightside to get thier photos first and then we had to take ours over there heads. Also, the driver moved the bus on regually without checking if people were seated.

The journey to/from capetown was a bit gruelling 2.5 hours each way but was in a nice new air-conditioned minibus. On arrival at Aquila a glass of fizzy before lunch. The lunch was a hot buffet with several choices and was excellent. Choice of indoor or outdoor tables. Good spotless facilities, friendly well informed and smart staff. The actual safari lasted 3 hours and driver Trevor was informative and happy to answer any questions raised. The trucka were old Tata lorries who's suspension had long ceased to exist and all thrown around. We saw 4 of the big 5 the Hippos choosing to remain submerged. Close encounters with Elephants and lions just a few meters away, great photo opportunity. Geology fascinating if its your thing. Pit stop after 2 hours for loo and more free fizzy. Entertained by a group of baboons stealing from bar and the wine if you put it down but keepers kept a good eye on them. Well worth the bumpy ride

During my recent visit to Cape Town, I had the opportunity to embark on a safari at the Aquila Private Game Reserve. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a welcome drink and a buffet lunch. The reserve is home to the Big Five: lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalo, and leopards. During our game drive, we were fortunate to observe four of the Big Five—lions, elephants, rhinos, and buffalo—up close. The knowledgeable guide provided insightful commentary on the animals’ behaviors and the reserve’s conservation efforts.

A great half day trip which we enjoyed immensely. Our driver, Adneen was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a perfect day for Table Mountain, and gave us an insight into Bo Kaap. Unfortunately we didn't have the time to go back before we left Cape Town.

We had a wonderful afternoon enjoying high tea at the Nellie with our family who were visiting from the UK. The sandwiches ,savouries ,petit fours and cakes were delicious as was the variety of teas available. It was made even more special by being offered a complimentary glass of pink bubbles on arrival at our table. We were very well looked after by Wiseman and Lulu ,who were very friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. We shall be back in February with more family to enjoy the experience.

Enjoyed the tour guides knowledge and explanation. He drove slow enough to catch photos from each side of safari vehicle giving us time to watch animals moves

This was a surprisingly good game drive. While it doesn’t begin to match the experience of a much longer safari, it’s a good option for someone staying in Cape Town only for a short time. Only disappointment - the lion population is minimal. We saw only one tucked inside a distant rock cave.

We went yesterday and had a very good time. Staff is great. Average food offered and drinks expensive. Great animals and landscape.

Took the money and the booking yet cancelled last minute. Said the reserve was fully booked. After I called the reserve I found out they had more than enough spaces and I managed to book the safari myself. This company is a scam as far as I am concerned scam.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable. We got to see 4 out 5 the big 5. 3 the beautiful 5. Buffet dinner was just nice. The lorry is bit rough

Nice adventure, very friendly, informative and save driver (jibi). The safari tour was good, though we expected more animals to see. Friendly staff, broad variety of food

I had a lovely afternoon with my friends, enjoying delicious food and tea and great service from our hostess Thuli, and intriguing tea discussions from the sommelier Craig. This was money well spent. Can’t wait to come back!

This is a wonderful trip and I highly recommend it! The day began being picked up at my hotel and driven to the game reserve. NOTE: it is a long drive! The group I travelled with was very friendly. Once there, I was greeted with a welcome drink. and a buffet lunch. The lunch was excellent, and I recommend sitting outdoors on the patio to enjoy the view. I then loaded up into one of the tour trucks for the safari. There is a lot of wildlife and great views of the scenery and the animals. I saw 4 of the "Big 5," only lacking a sighting of leopards. I was especially impressed with the lions as they were very close to the truck! At the halfway point of the safari, the tour stopped for additional complimentary drinks. When the tour was over, I was dropped off back at my hotel. I truly enjoyed the experience and once again highly recommend it!
