Testimonials

"Fantastic trip to Cape Town, MalaMala, and Victoria Falls with Basil and Lark Tours!!! This was my second trip to Africa and it had by far the nicest accommodations, easiest transfers, best guides in each local, and we were treated with old-fashioned kindness and respect, thanks to Basil and Lark Tours. My husband and I were satisfied with our first trip to Africa with Abercrombie & Kent, but this trip with Lark Tours was an easier, better arranged trip with excellent guides, excellent food, and polite, friendly folks who were anxious to follow our desires and, as far as possible, our timetable. I am and have recommended Lark Tours to friends and family and anyone even considering a trip to Africa!"

"Greetings Basil, We had a fabulous tour of South Africa with your company! Seeing the animals on safari was a life-long treasure...and the accommodations were everything we could have wanted! Being able to experience the beauty of the cities and countryside of South Africa, as well as the grace of the local people, was a wonderful gift! I felt like we got a true sense of the inner beauty and rich natural resources of South Africa! Thanks, Basil for accompanying us. You were a great and gracious host. Thanks for so many wonderful memories!"

"My trip with Lark Tours was the experience of a lifetime! The elephant safari was especially fabulous! The service at our accommodations and our guides were outstanding. We all agreed that we want to return. My grandsons had such a great time that they plan on going on another trip with their parents."

"Cape Town was a fantastic city to visit. The townships were fascinating and my favorite part. The food was delicious and I enjoyed eating exotic foods like warthog. Our accommodations at 51 on Kloofnek were 5-star. The views from Table Mountain were absolutely breathtaking. I enjoyed the animals in Kruger especially watching as a herd of over 50 elephants come to a watering hole and playing in the water. The people of South Africa were friendly and fascinating.  Lark Tours did a fantastic job and I would absolutely go back to southern Africa again."

"We had a great trip! We all LOVED the trip; it could not have been better. I've already made a few Lark Tour referrals to others interested in traveling to South Africa. We had a fabulous time and so enjoyed being with Basil. He does a super job. Anyway, I hope your travels are going well. We really had the best trip, and you were responsible for that and it is greatly appreciated. You couldn't have done a better job for us; truly! Thanks again for such a fabulous trip and memories."

"Colin, I want to thank you so much for the arrangements.  All the air connections were perfect and contributed to what we consider a trip of a lifetime.  Please feel free to use us as references with potential clients. The first safari was at Pafuri Camp in the northern part of Kruger. The setting for the camp on a river was stunning and the accommodations and food were outstanding. The management of the camp was extremely professional, but the best part was the diversity of wildlife and habitat, the close proximity of the wildlife to the camp and above all the knowledge and professionalism of the guides. The second safari was close to the middle part of Kruger. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we saw loads of lion, giraffe, buffalo, elephant as well as a rhino. The experience on this drive was outstanding. In closing I want to thank you again and hope my remarks will aid you in helping other clients.  Please feel free to use us as references."

"This Lark Tours vacation in South Africa was probably the most amazing adventure I have ever been on!"
Zach - Great Neck, NY

"Cape Town was beautiful and I enjoyed all the activities that Lark Tours planned for us. I loved Greg (Lark Tours guide in Cape Town), he is knowledgeable and did a great job. The food and restaurants were excellent. Cargills (restaurant in Cape Town) made a real chocolate lover out of me. The weather and accommodations were wonderful.  I loved the herd of elephants we saw playing in the water in Kruger National Park as well as the lioness that was only a few feet from our vehicle. Lark Tours took good care of us and I don’t know how we could have done this kind of a trip without them. Colin did a great job and we would definitely go back."
