Planning is an important aspect to consider when organising your trip to Southern Africa.
With Drive the Big 5, you will be in safe hands. We have been conducting tours in the Southern African region since 1997 and our knowledge of Africa’s ‘Big 5’ Countries - South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana - is intimate. We know, for example, how long it will take you to drive from one end of the Kruger National Park to the other or when its the best time of the year to visit the Cape.

Hi Tim! We came back from our trip and want to thank you for wonderful organization of ZuluLand part of our trip.
We were impressed of your concern about us on every step of our journey. Diving with sharks at Aliwal Shoal was great! Lynton Hall surprised us, such a beautiful, interesting place. Hilltop was wonderful, amazing views, great wild life experience, we could see zebra, buffalo and rhinos from our balcony. And everywhere good service, nice people.
You have such an interesting and beautiful country, and for us it was a great adventure.
Thank you! Best regards and fishes :) Natalia and Max.
