Mary SchwindWhat a first class trip of a lifetime

Traveling with Premier Africa in March 2022 was a refreshing, long awaited trip. Premier did more than what was expected for guests. The guides were knowledgeable about south Africa, transportation busses were comfortable and easy to get on and off and the food was prompt and delicious. There wasn’t a situation they couldn’t accommodate the travelers.

Denise and Rachel PadulaTrip of a Lifetime!

First of all, a big thank you to Gaynor, the Premier Africa Team and Sally Little, in partnership with the LPGA, for manifesting an amazing adventure in South Africa! Every detail and communication updates were above par. This was truly a trip of a lifetime!!

Greer LowryFantastic South African Experience

We had the most amazing South African experience! Premier Africa was top notch every step of the way. Our hosts made sure we were safe, satisfied and never inconvenienced. 5 stars is not enough. Truly 6+++.
