The best travel of my life! South Africa is amazing and we choose the best combo to know the country in few days. - I just had the greatest trip of my life! Every day was grateful surprise in this country. I'm still delighted with all the experiences! The Garden Route is unmissble, Loved the safaris and all the landscapes we saw on the road. Cape Town was also a delight and I must come back soon! There are so many things to do there! The hotels, the tour and the service of HotSpot are great. The Hotspot crew were very atencious and I fully recomend this tour or any other they offer! Our tour guide in this trip was Uriel and I can tell: he is the best! Kind, smart, funny, respectful, careful, helpful... I could stay all day writing good things about him! I travelled with my mom, who is 72, and other elderly people, and he was very attentive with her and the others. Uriel knows a lot about Africa and was a delight to hear him talk about his country.

10 day combo tour - We had a fantastic time doing the 10 day combo tour. Got to see some amazing places and experience some fantastic activities. Highlight of the tour however had to be our tour guide TK. He provided an authentic and humorous journey for us all and made sure we had a unique and enjoyable experience. Would 100% use Hotspots again, great communication and organisation!

Professional & Personal Service - Viator and Hotspots2c managed my booking and whole experience in Cape Town perfectly in both a professional and personal manner from start to finish. Our transfers were there to meet us and our guides, GG and Neville, were both so eager to make our experience the best they possibly could provide. Their knowledge was outstanding as was their personal service, organisation and flexibility. We booked the 4-star option and every hotel was outstanding in its own way. The included and optional activities were all very good and we were lucky to have had such a fun group of people - we certainly had many many laughs and many memorable experiences. The elephant walk was extra special. Thank you and well done Viator & Hotspots2c. Julie

Study Abroad: Garden Tour Experience - My tour guide, GG or Ulrich and his coworker Nev, were so kind! It didn’t take them long to learn all of our names, which was such a nice personal touch. They were not only our tour guides, showing us their gorgeous country but they were our advocates and our friends. I don’t think I’ve ever met tour guides so friendly! Truly an amazing experience.
