    5. Overall level of satisfaction

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    7. We had a brilliant holiday and will spend many hours telling everyone we meet about it.
      Highlights were probably, in the order we did them:
      Apartheid Museum in Joburg
      Pony Trekking in Lesotho and Masakala
      Rhinos at Mkhaya

    8. Tribes service

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    10. Our consultant coped with all our destination requests and it was great to have one point of invoice rather than having to book all 10 accommodations ourselves. Every arrangement went like clockwork and our hosts were prepared for our vegetarian diet and bent over backwards to suit us. We will recommend Tribes to others who want something a bit different.

    11. Expectations

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    13. We wanted to experience different aspects of South Africa and go beyond the main tourist itinerary and this holiday exceeded our expectations. We will keep in contact with the people we met in Roma and Masakala and help their local projects.

    14. Guides

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    16. All the local people who took us on walks, pony trekking, game drives were excellent and patient too since they had to pose for numerous photographs and give us their life stories!

    17. Social & Environmental Responsibility

      • Good

      Good

    19. Soweto, Lesotho and Masakala were particularly good examples where we felt our presence was investing in the community.
      Mkhaya is a good example of a low tech but up-market lodge

      Don't even think about missing this!

    4. We really valued having planned a trip which included experiences of black South Africa and Lesotho alongside the standard sea and safari destinations and met other tourists who realised that they probably could have done so too but it hadn't been suggested to them.
