5.00Safari tour in high winds, very cold, but… blankets, timing of toilet breaks, safe driving, serving hot tea… Thank you for your thoughtfulness. The barbecue is delicious, and I'm very happy to see elephants, striped horses, Chinese deer, scarlet boar, and Austrich!

Thanks to him, we saw everything: lion, elephant bein sur, zebras, species of birds, rhinoceros, buffalo, giraffes, mountain trail, etc. Don't hesitate any longer, call Thentic Tours and you will not regret it.

5.00I have traveled to South Africa four (4) times and have visited Addo four (4) times. I will never grow tired of viewing these large and gentle creatures in their natural habitat. The self drive tour could last anywhere from 2 to 6 hours depending on your love of elephants. A wonderful experience for both young and old.
Very enjoyable experience

5.00A thoroughly enjoyable experience. We had great communication from Chen and Emmanuel was a wonderful guide, very patient and kind. He obviously loved the animals. The first one he spotted was the smallest - a dung beetle, which was trying to cross the road. We were concerned for its life as other vehicles failed to notice it. He showed us many species we hadn't seen before and of course, lots of elephants. We caught an amazing picture of a buffalo in a water hole and finally, as we were leaving, a lion. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.
