Enjoyable trip to see the Big 5
The Matadi Team was great helping with an alternative to the tour I had initially booked, which was to another game reserve. The day trip to Aquila was very enjoyable, and we saw 4 of the Big 5 plus giraffs, ostriches, and many others. Our driver was also very accommodating by taking my luggage with us to drop me off at a different hotel upon returning to Cape Town in the evening.

too much confusion
After I gave my ticket to the operator and they got us all set then they start trying to put other people with us and it was already 8 of us and we said we paid for Private and the guy said no you didn't you want Private you have to pay more. I said our ticket said Private and Viator said it was private but he said no, no, you just paid for tour so I ask him how much for Private he said $2800 for 8 people and I paid it so we could keep moving but I was so upset that we had to pay more when we specifically ask Viator for Private. I was too upset to enjoy the tour. I even ask him to look at the ticket again and he said no it don't say Private.
Response from the operator: Hi Dear Customer Thank you for your review. Let me clarify you the tour it was private tour.. bécause we cale to collect you with the private tour it was only your family non body else was in the car including our tour Guide driver that he was driving you and takes you in the safari game Reserve. and in game Reserve is only them that whom have to know like how many people they will take on long 4x4 car to see the animals. We was offer what we suppose to offer Dear Customer. Kind regards John

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cape Town.
How much does Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $251 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cape Town usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8.2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cape Town is not rushed.
Is Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cape Town, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cape Town can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cape Town and add a light layer if any part of the 8.2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cape Town South Africa - Best of Aquila Safari Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cape Town within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cape Town?
+
On Outty we rank every Cape Town experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cape Town: Lion's Head Sunrise/Sunset Hike, Cape Town Airport Private Transfer, Ocean Wildlife Encounter in Cape Town. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cape Town?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cape Town?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
