No question or problem has been ignored or left unanswered. Thanks for this, Kerri. What made this tour so special, was the variety of activities we had, with a super organization and coordination on such a high level. Never a waste of time or money.\nWe experienced amazing wildlife and its extended nature with interesting eco experiences going on. We were informed in an honest way about the complicated history and social life of SA while visiting Johannesburg, and townships, and having our exclusive dinner at Christo Brand\u2019s house. We enjoyed a very typical, clean, and comfortable accommodations to stay in. We will never forget the kind and experienced guidance of Clive, this in his own special way. We tasted outstanding gastronomy in some of your best restaurants. It was an active program, but never overloaded.\nSo, thank you, Nicki and Kerri, to give us this perfect taste of your astonishing country and its people. It only gives us a feeling of \u2018tasting more\u2019. Tourism in Europe can learn a lot of African Spiral, be sure of that!\nClub \u201957.<\/p>\n    <\/div> \n    <div class=\"nd_options_section \">\n      <div style=\"border-top-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_margin_auto nd_options_height_0 nd_options_width_0 nd_options_border_style_solid nd_options_border_color_transparent nd_options_border_width_15 nd_options_border_bottom_width_0\"><\/div> \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n\n\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_text_align_center\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" class=\"nd_options_border_radius_100_percentage\" src=\"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/apple-icon-114x114.png\"> \n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n      <h4 class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\">Claudine<\/h4>\n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_10 \"><\/div>\n      <p class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\"><\/p>\n    <\/div>  \n\n\n  <\/div>\n  <!--END TESTIMONIAL-->\n\n   <div style=\"background-color:;height: 30px\" class=\"nicdark_section  \"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1540544098134{margin-top: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]\n\n  <!--START TESTIMONIAL-->\n  <div class=\"nd_options_section testimonial\">\n                                            \n    <div style=\"background-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_padding_40 nd_options_border_radius_3 nd_options_text_align_center nd_options_box_sizing_border_box\">\n      <p class=\"nd_options_color_white nd_options_margin_0_important\">We had a wonderful experience in that amazing part of the world, but I have to say that Nicki was a big part of that.

Well done! With the many transfers and different modes of transport, it all happened with no hitches.\nWe thoroughly enjoyed Mala Mala which was probably the highlight of our holiday even though the Vic Falls was a very close second. All the accommodation was of a high standard and was pleasant to stay at.\nIt was wonderful meeting you Lesley, thank you for taking time out to make us feel special.\nWe wish you all the best and of course will recommend you highly to anyone making a trip to SA.<\/p>\n    <\/div> \n    <div class=\"nd_options_section \">\n      <div style=\"border-top-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_margin_auto nd_options_height_0 nd_options_width_0 nd_options_border_style_solid nd_options_border_color_transparent nd_options_border_width_15 nd_options_border_bottom_width_0\"><\/div> \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n\n\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_text_align_center\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" class=\"nd_options_border_radius_100_percentage\" src=\"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/apple-icon-114x114.png\"> \n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n      <h4 class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\">Pauline<\/h4>\n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_10 \"><\/div>\n      <p class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\"><\/p>\n    <\/div>  \n\n\n  <\/div>\n  <!--END TESTIMONIAL-->\n\n   <div style=\"background-color:;height: 30px\" class=\"nicdark_section  \"><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]\n\n  <!--START TESTIMONIAL-->\n  <div class=\"nd_options_section testimonial\">\n                                            \n    <div style=\"background-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_padding_40 nd_options_border_radius_3 nd_options_text_align_center nd_options_box_sizing_border_box\">\n      <p class=\"nd_options_color_white nd_options_margin_0_important\">Overall: unforgettable experience, exceptional service, outstanding organization. Every detail of the trip is well thought out, logistics made easy and enjoyable by kids, even lengthy transfers and flights between countries. The entire trip was full of different activities keeping the kids interested the whole day. Kids learned so much about nature, flora and fauna, and culture.\nMaureen, you know how important travel is for me - I consider it to be THE greatest experience I can offer to my kids to see, learn, appreciate and fall in love with the beautiful world we live in.\nThank you and Nicki for organizing this amazing trip for us - we spent 11 days in paradise and we\u2019ll definitely be back!<\/p>\n    <\/div> \n    <div class=\"nd_options_section \">\n      <div style=\"border-top-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_margin_auto nd_options_height_0 nd_options_width_0 nd_options_border_style_solid nd_options_border_color_transparent nd_options_border_width_15 nd_options_border_bottom_width_0\"><\/div> \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n\n\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_text_align_center\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" class=\"nd_options_border_radius_100_percentage\" src=\"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/apple-icon-114x114.png\"> \n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n      <h4 class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\">Olgar<\/h4>\n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_10 \"><\/div>\n      <p class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\"><\/p>\n    <\/div>  \n\n\n  <\/div>\n  <!--END TESTIMONIAL-->\n\n   <div style=\"background-color:;height: 30px\" class=\"nicdark_section  \"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1677058834656{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]<div style=\"background-color:;height: 30px\" class=\"nicdark_section  \"><\/div>\n\n  <!--START TESTIMONIAL-->\n  <div class=\"nd_options_section testimonial\">\n                                            \n    <div style=\"background-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_padding_40 nd_options_border_radius_3 nd_options_text_align_center nd_options_box_sizing_border_box\">\n      <p class=\"nd_options_color_white nd_options_margin_0_important\">We just returned from a trip of a lifetime. This would not have been so seamless and amazing if it wasn\u2019t for our travel agent Nicki Delmulle and African Spiral. We can\u2019t thank our friend @William Whitecloud enough for referring us to Nicki.\nFirst of all, she spent a lot of time on Skype finding out our level of interest, likes and budget. She then put together a very custom proposed itinerary with some options. Our trip was on very short notice so it made it even more challenging for her to get to the best places, but she did.\nWe also decided to get married at Victoria Falls and Nicki found us a fabulous wedding planner Louise @VicFallsOccassions.\nWe then fine-tuned her suggestions to come up with the ultimate plan. Then she started to fill it in with amazing restaurant recommendations, various tours and guides.\nAll of Nicki\u2019s recommendations were spot on.\nNot only that but her level of communication via WhatsApp during the trip was beyond compare with daily communications to be sure all was on track. She checked us into all flights and handled any needs during the entire trip. She also met with us in person at our first destination in Capetown to review the trip again in person.\nWe highly recommend Nicki and African Spiral for any African adventure. We for sure will use her in the future and refer her to our friends.<\/p>\n    <\/div> \n    <div class=\"nd_options_section \">\n      <div style=\"border-top-color:#91c7c2\" class=\"nd_options_margin_auto nd_options_height_0 nd_options_width_0 nd_options_border_style_solid nd_options_border_color_transparent nd_options_border_width_15 nd_options_border_bottom_width_0\"><\/div> \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n\n\n    <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_text_align_center\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" class=\"nd_options_border_radius_100_percentage\" src=\"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/apple-icon-114x114.png\"> \n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_20 \"><\/div>\n      <h4 class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\">Robert<\/h4>\n      <div class=\"nd_options_section nd_options_height_10 \"><\/div>\n      <p class=\"nd_options_margin_0_important\"><\/p>\n    <\/div>  \n\n\n  <\/div>\n  <!--END TESTIMONIAL-->\n\n   <div style=\"background-color:;height: 30px\" class=\"nicdark_section  \"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1677058894107{padding-top: 40px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1540544098134{margin-top: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1540544098134{margin-top: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1677058834656{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-137","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=137"}],"version-history":[{"count":42,"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/137\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4297,"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/137\/revisions\/4297"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.africanspiral.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
