I did chose to go on the 69 day Rwanda to Cape Town tour and this was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I met some of the most fantastic people, made life long friends, and saw the most incredible places. I got to see all the things I came to Africa for and I got to do it in a safe way.
I couldn’t be happier that I chose this company, all the team members were amazing, some who I am even still in contact with. Absolute really listens to your needs and bends over backwards to help you with what you want. Planning this trip was easy with the help they gave me and even once I was on the trip they listened to my needs.
I cannot recommend absolute Africa more. I feel sorry for anyone who chose another company (and paid more to do so too).
If you want to have the best experience possible, go with absolute.
This was such a great experience, me and my husband had an amazing time and Absolute Africa was a very authentic to explore Africa!
I climbed Kilimanjaro and did a six week overland trip in 2017 with Absolute Africa! I couldn't have asked for a better trip!
When I first strted lookong at overlands in Africa nothing really jumped out at me, and when it came to Kilimanjaro everything was a cluster! Absolute Africa was friendly from the start! They answered all my questions via chat and helped me plan my trip around what I wanted to see and the amount of time I had in Africa!
I met the most amazing people, and had the time of my life! Friends of mine are already on another trip with Absolute, more are going next month, and I am returning in a couple years!
Book with Absolute Africa! You won't find anything close when it comes to price and experience!
There are many overland companies that offer trips across Africa. in 2018 I undertook the Absolute Safari with Absolute Africa which is a 73 day trip from Nairobi to Cape Town. Its worth noting that the different companies who run this or a very similar itinerary, vary hugely in price. Absolute is budget, and doesnt pretend to be anything else. Everyday you will have to cook (as a group) your own meals and put up your own tents - an aspect of the trip I wanted, other companies for example will provide a cook onboard - however you have to pay far more! The trip provided amazing opportunities for safari and other activities and I was fortunate to have an amazing group, (pretty) diverse in age and nationality. We visited Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Malawi, Zam and Zim, Botswana, Namibia and SA. I saw everything I could have wished too, Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Gorilla, Rhino, Elephant, Giraffe etc, as well as amazing sights such as Vic Falls, Zanzibar and Ngorongoro Crater. Its also worth mentioning to any potential suitors, that Absolute does not consider its trips to be wild parties etc... However it can be, a number of the campsites/hostels do have bars, our group had many birthdays and in some places they offer 'sunset cruises', so as the groups tend to have a majority age range of say 25-35, there can be some late and entertaining nights and you should be open to participate or respect the right to party! I have plenty of pictures and many a story to tell, so if you would like any more info @djplumb on insta!
My love to Africa started when I was 17 years old, since then I visited the continent around 7 times and "dragged" my husband with me as soon as I had the chance. For our honeymoon we were looking for our absolut dream itinerary which would go from Nairobi to Cape Town - we found several tour operators that offer this route however the response time and the quality of information that we got for the office from Absolut Africa was by far the best and fastest. So it was soon very clear that we would embark our journey with Absolut Africa.
We were overland tour virgins, so we had no idea what would expect us - but this did not keep us from going all in - we booked the Absolute Safari from Nairobi to Cape Town in 93 days. We did some volunteer projects in Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia before but we always stayed pretty independent even there (Southern Africa we explored on our own).
We realised on the first day in Nairobi that our guide, Manache, is an absolut gem. After 93 days on the road with him we both basically wanted to marry him. Hes sooo much fun, hes extremely helpful, he always had an answer to our questions, always a solution to our problems, always an open ear for our needs. Hes an absolut professional, brutally organised, we always felt 200% safe and well taken care of.
Also our group was awesome. Good age mixture, from 22 to 60 years we had every age, good mixture of nationalities - hell we made friends for life on that trip.
And well, the itinerary is beyond! 2 years after the trip I sometimes still can not believe that I went to all these amazing places (The Masai Mara, the Serengeti, the Mountain Gorillas, Zanzibar, Victoria Falls, Okavango Delta, Etosha just to mentioned the most known ones!).
If you are looking at the trip with Absolut Africa, don`t think much longer, just book, I promise, you will have the time of your life!
