South Africa Travel Tips

Prepare for your one-of-a-kind trip with our expert tips for travel in South Africa.

We had an absolutely wonderful time in South Africa and Uganda, with all experiences arranged by Hornbill. Our guide in Uganda, Exevia, was fantastic - he was so knowledgeable about Uganda and had an obvious passion and love for his country and all its beauty and wildlife. Our gorilla trek was absolutely magical, truly the experience of a lifetime. Exevia took care to make sure we were with a guide that best matched our physical abilities. He was so sweet, I felt like I was leaving a family member when it was time to go home. I highly recommend using them for your trip.
