It was a pleasure having Max as our consultant. As I'm in the service industry myself, Max was very flexible and took all my requests to create a fantastic itinerary. African Travel Consultants delivered on their promise. Once I arrived in Cape Town, I never had to contact him as everything was in place. We highly recommend ATC!

The lodge itself is incredibly luxurious, rooms were very tidy, bed was comfortable and the front balcony with the pool is lovely touch. All of the staff are very friendly and attentive. The food was simply outstanding and consisted of a buffet breakfast and lunch, and lovely dinner out on the deck.
The lodge itself is situated within a private concession of Kruger National Park which is densely populated with animals. The guides know their way around like the back of their hands and we were fortunate enough to see all of the big 5 (and even wild dogs). The highlight had to be seeing a leopard drag an impala up a tree - a once in a lifetime experience which wouldn't have been possible without our fantastic guide, Connor

...more I together with my other five friends we booked safari with Sally from African Travel Consultants, we spent three days on safari to the Masai Mara. Everything was well organized, the driver came to pick us on time and the whole safari was full of fun & excitement. We managed to see the big five and we were lucky to have a fantastic cook Joe ! We really enjoyed the meals. I highly recommend Sally from African Travel Consultants as it's the only company that was cost effective for a group of interns & students, Great service and very professional.

Arathusa Reviews
We stayed at Arathusa for 3 nights, our room was bush facing and we loved it. Our ranger Jamie was very professional and the food was good. The game drives were the best we had after visiting 4 lodges. We are planning to visit Sabi Sands reserve again early next year.
