- rosiem17Loughton, UK121 contributionsAmazing experience. We never imagined we would get here, and what an experience. Trip via Boulders beach for the penguins and the wind was howling but it was wild and wonderful!Written March 14, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Francesca MCape Town Central, South Africa8 contributionsA great afternoon hike for sure. Wonderful views, well established trails. Strong recommendation. Just don't go too late in day.Written February 6, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jo MWirral, UK117 contributionsWe found Inverdoorn a charming place to stay. Our Tankwa chalet was very comfortable and well appointed. We stayed for one night and had 2 game drives. Food was excellent (one veggie, one meat eater) . Lovely pool area.
Well organised and our private transfers organised by the company went smoothly.
Vehicles took 10 passengers. Our driver-guide was informative.
The animals have been brought in from elsewhere and are fed centrally, so you are guaranteed to see lions(in a separate part) zebras, giraffes, elephants, hippos, rhinos, buffalo, impala, springboks and ostriches but with absolutely zero thrill of the safari trekking chase.Written January 23, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I feel that the ticket price for adults are a bit steep.🧐 Picnic area needs a bit attention.Written September 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ElizabethSingapore, Singapore32 contributionsHad fun at the ostrich farm and very close up to ostriches. There is a shop to browse ostrich products like purses and bags. And we got to buy bowls of feed to feed 2 ostriches in a designated pen. There’s also a restaurant in the same compound that serves ostrich fillet but we didn’t try the food. Overall, it was really fun taking a quick visit to the ostrich farm and happy to chance across it! Interesting to hold the ostrich egg and look at the ostrich egg shell art too.Written April 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ChrisDurban, South Africa68 contributionsI never knew this place existed, such a great walk and so many birds. Take mozzy spray because the first portion of the walk had lots of flying bugs. I would definitely recommend and rate Intaka island specially for birdersWritten October 1, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Andrei FHarare, Zimbabwe97 contributionsThe area was well maintained and had numerous spots (hides and towers) to look out over the water and see the birdlife (though not much else). There was no entrance fee, which was a nice bonus.Written January 16, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stuart fJohannesburg, South Africa132 contributionsA short distance form Cape Town and a scenic route slightly off the normal tourist route. Stop in Melkbosstrand for a meal !Written April 19, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jerry BuirskiCape Town, South Africa320 contributionsRietvlei and its bird hides are a long-time family favourite. While we went early this time it was shaping up to be a scorcher of a day. Clouds of what seemed to be mosquitos was everywhere and miniscule spider-webs were floating over the boardwalk. There was lots of birds, especially on the fynbos and reeds, but beware, the many types of LBJs will drive you nuts, mostly warblers and cisticolas. Take a picnic and chill out in a hide or next to the lake. If you are really lucky you might see an otter or mongoose.Written October 2, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AisyNew York City, NY3 contributionsHad such an amazing time with Santacruise tours!! Our guide, Tingo, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the city's history, sharing interesting stories and anecdotes at every stop. We especially loved his above and beyond professionalism taking care of our group from start to finish. He made my trip unforgettable!! I Highly recommend this tour!"Written December 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
