SOUTH AFRICAN SAFARI $6595.00*early booking rate
There is absolutely no doubt South Africa is blessed with spectacular natural beauty, a fantastic climate and diversely interesting regions with diverse cultures. To say that South Africa is a virtual paradise is a true statement. The country geographically consists of an unspoiled coastline stretching for 2800 kilometres/1740 miles, dramatic mountains and escarpments, extensive bushveld, subtropical forest and outstanding wetlands. Although a comparatively large country, South Africa is easy to get around due to its excellent air and rail services.

Pat 1 review a week ago NEWI recently traveled to Ireland with my sister on a Thompson organized trip. Thankfully, we took out the suggested trip insurance because on day 1, a medical emergency required us to remain in town while the tour continued on. Eileen's attention to detail was so helpful and definitely eased our minds. She rebooked hotels, arranged local transportation, rebooked our flights and ensured we received the necessary airport assistance in Ireland and in the US. No hesitation to recommend Eileen and Thompson for your travel needs. *****

Angela 1 review 9 months agoJust got back from a fabulous trip in NYC! Eileen from Thompson Travel did a fantastic job putting it all together for us. The hotel she chose was beautiful, well appointed, and located right in the middle of everything! We felt comfortable and safe! Eileen took great care to take care of us going way above and beyond the norm!
Our flights were perfect with no airport drama that is so common these days!
Highly recommend Thompson Travel! *****

Jack 2 reviewsa year ago Recently returned from a trip to England, Scotland, and Wales with Thompson Tours....our second trip to Europe with Eileen. My wife and I had a great time. The accommodations were First Class...just beautiful. The included meals were great. Eileen selected restaurants where we could experience local delicacies...including haggis. Also had alot of fun visiting several pubs...got to drink a few pints with the townspeople who were welcoming and friendly to American visitors. The tours that Eileen arranged were well planned and extremely interesting...my favorite being the visit to Winston Churchill's War Rooms. Several of the tours included local guides who were very knowledgeable and showed us things we never would have been able to find on our own. One of the guides taught us how to use the London train system...perfect for free time and independent exploration. Eileen was actually with us on the trip. I got to witness and appreciate just how hard she works to make sure everything goes smoothly, and everyone has a great time. Will be booking many more adventures with Thompson Tours in the future. *****

Barbara 1 review a year agoJust returned from the National Parks tour out west. We saw a lot of sights which was exactly what we wanted. There were only 25 people on the full size bus which was great for spreading out. Would have helped if maybe there were videos about the sights to make the ride more enjoyable. The only accommodation I had trouble with was the ski resort. Seemed like it was way out of the way and not the best place for “senior citizens “. A couple of restaurants were questionable for a choice of dinner. Had better leftovers at home.
I would travel with Thompson again mostly for Ellen Toole. She was a hoot and kept us informed and entertained. ****

Just returned from Thompson's tour of Iceland. Everything on the tour went smoothly because of Ellen's checking on the hotel and meal arrangements,etc. Thank you to George too with lifting suitcases and helping with the details and for his reassurance that all was going well. I also appreciated that this was a small group of very nice,helpful people. Thanks especially for help at the waterfalls and the glacier! Iceland is a beautiful country and we experienced many waterfalls, glacier hiking (!), and other geological wonders unique to Iceland.(ie hot springs). Thanks to the planning for the trip by Thompson tours, we stayed in very nice Icelandic hotels, had opportunities to get to know each other and learn much more about Iceland. Kudos to Dylan our guide for all of the interesting facts and stories about the Icelandic culture,history and geology. I would highly recommend this tour. - definitely a bargain!! *****
