Going to South Africa and Zimbabwe is an experience not to be missed. The natural wonders, people and animals are truly extraordinary. It was fun, exciting and beautiful. There is so much to do that a 12 day trip was nowhere near enough!

Our Premier Africa trip was the trip of a lifetime! Michele had every detail planned perfectly down to exactly who would meet us and when. The accommodations at the lodges and camps were beautiful with excellent people taking care of us. Our safari guides and trackers were the best as were our Premier Africa guides Rehana and Sue. Best travel experience ever.

First of all, a big thank you to Gaynor, the Premier Africa Team and Sally Little, in partnership with the LPGA, for manifesting an amazing adventure in South Africa! Every detail and communication updates were above par. This was truly a trip of a lifetime!! We were delightfully greeted at our arrival gate and escorted through customs where we then met up with our stellar guide, Zakkie. He and everyone we met on our excursions warmly welcomed us and were enthralled to share the greatness that South Africa has to offer. Our first stay was at Leeu Estates: a 5-star winery and resort, which lived up to the 5-star name in accommodations, service, views, and meals. To wake up and see the mountain line while Cabernet Franc grapes grow in the backyard made the vineyard experience that much better. The wineries in Sellenbosch and Franschhoek were gorgeous and we were spoiled with leisurely tastings and exquisite views at each one. Zakkie brought us to our different wine tours, lunches and throughout the journey graciously shared his knowledge about his home and all of the wonders of South Africa. He arranged our schedule to assure we could see all of the sights, and allow time for a little shopping and other activities that may have caught our eye and be of interest. The wineries in South Africa are beautiful and not to be missed. After leaving the wineries and upon arrival in Capetown, we were pleasantly surprised by the Table Bay Hotel, which was located near shopping, walking areas, and so many tourist sites: Table Mountain, Cape of Good Hope, and we were even able to spontaneously paraglide off of Signal Hill. A true highlight of our stay in Cape Town was dinner with Sally and Glenn and a round of golf with Sally Little at the Metropolitan Golf Club. A fun memory and friendships were made for lifetime. Sally shared some of her life stories and her love of her home with us as well. As for the Safari…INCREDIBLE is an understatement. Long Lee Manor at Shamwari was stunning. Every amenity was available and our guide Frans was magnificent. He tracked the animals, offered so much knowledge about them and was able to make it so we could view and photograph the Big 5, and more! To see a lion with his family a mere 20- feet away is a memory that will last a lifetime. We were so close to the animals, and could even hear them eat from our proximity. The pictures we captured will be on display to share for years to come. Again, a great many thanks to the entire team at Premier Africa and Sally Little for the experience, beauty and the best trip we’ve experienced! Wishing you all well and continued success!

The trip was outstanding in all aspects. Pre trip planning and communication, itinerary, transfers and logistics, service and help were impeccable. We especially appreciated our host and her dedication to making our trip fun, interesting and effortless. We were always informed of what was happening next. No detail was missed. She had a good team behind her.

We purchased this trip pre COVID and they were very accommodating to postpone our original date. Gaynor was very communicative and helped to plan a very memorial trip. Everything felt very first class. The tour guides were excellent , knowledgeable and friendly, wanting to make sure we had a great experience. The accommodations were first rate and beautiful.

Excellent concierge service. I cannot imagine a trip without the support of Premier Africa!

I love Africa and traveling with Premier Africa makes it hassleless.

Our East Africa trip was extraordinary. Loved seeing all the wildlife! Premier knows how to treat you right. Highly recommended. Thank you Premier for making this trip so memorable!
