I have sent many of my tourists and guests on tours with Peter Giddy and they have always come back with glowing reports of the wonderful time they had. I was privileged to take my grandson on a hike up the Lady Slipper Mountain just outside Port Elizabeth. Peter was a great host and made the walk so interesting by pointing out different plants along the way and telling us stories about the area. He has many other walking/hiking tours and I would recommend that you do as many of these with Peter as you can I would recommend any tour with Peter.

I have just returned from my first hunting safari ever in South Africa with Pete Safaris. I looked at a lot of travel agencies when planning this trip. Somehow, when I got to Pete Safaris, it just felt right from the beginning. Great service from the agency and at the lodge Ufumene, affordable prices, excellent accommodations —all in all, very professional. I got the experience of a lifetime. I can’t stop smiling. Thankfully, I have hundreds of videos and photos, so I can still remember this trips many years from now when I get old. It was an experience of a lifetime! I can highly recommend it.

Debbie took me out me out on two separate Game Drives over two days, one to Addo Elephant Park and the other to a Big 5 Game reserve. Debbie usually runs tours from Port Elizabeth but just picked me up from Addo town. I had a lovely couple of days seeing all sorts of game and even white Rhino.The scenery was stunning in both locations and even getting there with delightful country drives I won't mention where where we saw the white Rhino as they are utterly endangered. I have done a three week extensive safari before and this time I just wanted to to have a couple of days in a private vehicle with a local guide, no stress and just comfort. Excellent Choice!!! Debbie was a delight to have as a guide, not only cause of her knowledge of the Game, the comfortable vehicle, but it was so easy to converse with Debbie also on other subjects and I learned a lot about South Africa. Overall a 5 star experience, I can highly recommend Addo Secret Safaris.

Four friends and I did the 4 day tour, from Addo to Karoo and it was great! We did 3 different parks and saw plenty of animals and were given a lot of information about the animals, like how warthogs eat. It was nice that it wasn't just about counting how many animals you see, but actually learning about them too. Our guide Lonwabo was an absolute pleasure and I would highly recommend this experience.

This was the most spectacular experience ever. If you’re looking to not only learn about the many animals and plants that occupy Addo National Park but also the city of PE during your drive from your pick up point to the Park then Andrew, our tour guide is your guy. Andrew was very kind to me and my mother and very accommodating. He gave in depth knowledge on the plants and animals as we passed by. The food is limited to pastas and burgers, I had a beef burger and it was the most succulent. He ensured we spot all the lovely animals then dropped us at our hotel safely. Would absolutely recommend this drive.
