Me and my husband were planning a trip to Cape Town we were a little nervous but everything turned out great we went on a safari and wine tasting journey I got to see a lion and buffaloes and the wine tasting at fairview was outstanding overall we got more than we bargained for
What an amazing experience!!! The wine and Aguila tours were awesome! BUT the icing on the cake was our tour guide and driver Lucian who provided such a fantastic history lesson on Cape Town while being so very professional, patient, and kind! Thank you😊
Very nice trip although we were expecting much more animals especially leopards, giraffes, wolves…. We were about to have bad impression for the first time when we couldn’t see lions even from far distant, but at the end of the safari the lions came close to the cars which gave the safari special excitement.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Aquila tour with African Okapi Tours was an unforgettable experience! From the seamless pickup to the warm hospitality of our guide, everything was perfectly arranged. The drive was comfortable, and we enjoyed learning about the history and wildlife along the way. At Aquila, we were thrilled to see elephants, rhinos, lions, and giraffes up close in their natural habitat—it felt like a true African safari. The lunch was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing yet adventurous. We highly recommend African Okapi Tours for anyone looking for a professional, well-organized, and memorable safari experience.

Thanks in particular to our Guide who was nice and helpful and who told us many interesting things about the area along the way.
