Outstanding! Exceptional! Phenomenal!
The accommodations and staff, the wildlife, the scenery and Nicki Wingate's incredible & flawless talent.
This was our third trip and yet I thought it impossible that each could be a more unique and fantastic experience of a lifetime.
Put simply, not a single company exists that can surpass Exclusively Africa. Custom fit itineraries to ones personal taste, expert planning, great communication and most pleasant to deal with. Thank you once again!

Camphor Way, pictured, in Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is a setting in which South Africans marry, and is one of my favorite places in South Africa. It is all about love and beauty, and I love South Africa and its amazing beauty. This picture is also all representative of the trip you planned and implemented for us. In every respect, it was all about loving South Africa and appreciating its beauty. And, you chose just the right times and places to enable us to have the best accommodations at terrific prices. With all the well-deserved credit to you, I said on more than one occasion to my traveling companions while we were in South Africa, If, at this time next year, you are not in South Africa, you will wish you were.

We had a fantastic time! The game lodge chosen by Nicki was magic, staff superb, accommodations great, and the accessibility of the animals is not to be believed!

Looking forward to our next visit!

Dear Nicki,

We have returned from our marvelous South Africa vacation back to South America yesterday evening, tired but very happy. The travel met and even exceeded our expectations and was a full success.

Phinda Zuka provided us with a perfect surrounding for the special celebrations of Marlene's and Guillermo's birthdays. The Zulu drummers & dancers with the choir made an ever lasting impact on us. There were no dry eyes in the room. The Phinda team made us feel at home from day one and Patoa's delicious cooking impressed us meal after meal. The ranger Hendrick and our tracker dedicated themselves to us 120% and our cameras are filled with more than 4.000 fotos as a result of that :)

Londolozi pampered us with elegance &simplicity and did not fail to bring us close to the famous leopards. The service there was also impressive and the spacious rooms at Tree Camp took our breaths away.

The last days of our vacation in Cape Town were more focused on sight seeing and shopping. The weather did not allow us to get up to Table mountain, but a city tour and a full day Winelands tour gave us a good sample of the beauty of the region. The cloudy weather also "justified" the time spent at shopping :)

We would like to Thank You for your dedication, professionalism & recommendations and excellent attention to detail which greatly contributed to making this such a unique vacation for us.

We will surely know whom to contact or recommend if a travel to Africa should be in the plans in the future.

Very warm regards,
The extended Haverbeck family

"We absolutely loved all the accommodations you chose for us. The game at Londolozi was so incredible. I never expected to get such amazing and close up photos of the animals (which by the way are hanging in our den).
The Getty House and Thanda were by far the most luxurious lodgings that we have ever stayed in and the cuisine was nothing short of outstanding. The staff at each reserve was so pleasant and knowledgeable. We loved the Garden Route and the wine country was breathtaking. ........ So glad we added Capetown to the end of our trip. The Cape Grace was such a beautiful hotel and in the perfect location to explore the waterfront. ...........We thank you a thousand times. There is no way this trip could have been more perfect and it was solely due to your wonderful recommendations and planning."
Skip and Donna McDonald

"Thank you for the wonderful trip that you designed especially for us. Your knowledge and care taken for your customers is outstanding. The properties chosen for our safari site inspections were exactly what we wanted........I will never forget the perfect photo opportunity's of the leopards at Londolozi. The uniqueness and privacy of our own lodge at Milton Manor at Kwandwe was wonderful..........I look forward to doing business with Exclusively Africa in the near future. Thanks again for all of your hard work and making our vacation a dream of a lifetime."

"......My husband and I have taken three safari trips booked by Ms. Wingate and have had a wonderful experience on each trip. She handled all of our reservation, our flights to the Kalahari desert and other remote locations. Everything was perfectly planned and her choice of safari lodges was just what we wanted. The thrill of being a part of this incredible experience called "safari" is something I will keep forever in my memory book."
Sandra Anderson Wallace

"......We feel there is a great advantage working with you because you have been to all the different locations that you sell. We appreciate the personal attention you gave us while planning our trip, the results were fabulous. Your experience from living in South Africa for many years sets you apart from other companies. We'd love to explore a different area or country on our next visit. I will refer clients to you whenever I can and we look forward to planning our next trip."

"Both Jim and I thought we understood the adventures in store for us - but the excitement we felt getting up close and personal with the elephants, or hearing the gentle sounds of the giraffes walking past us in the bush........The friendliness of the staff allowed us to learn so much. Thanks for knocking yourself out for us."
Annie and Jim Korth

"She will arrange any type of experience you want to have in Africa. Give her a budget, tell her where you want to go and relax. You are in good hands."
Robert Wallace

" After planning to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro we were clueless......The magnificence and elegance of the Ngorongoro Crater Lodge was beyond our wildest expectations! The extra touches you arranged for us, like coming back to our chalet to find a bottle of wine surrounded by rose petals, made booking with you a step above. All went smooth and without a problem..........Can't wait to plan another trip with your company."
