The Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park Day Safari provided lots of opportunity to view rhinoceroses.

Couldn't dock the first day due to averse winds, so spend it going in circles and trying again in the morning. Not surprisingly, this was the worst day of the cruise for ship motion (not that it bothered us). When we got there, we decided that missing a day was probably a good thing.

Didn't see much of Richard's bay but it is a jumping off point for tour to game preserves. We took a tour and enjoyed it.

Only got off ship to buy mementos from the vendors. There has to be a better place for NCL to dock - this coal port is just terrible! South Africa has so many beautiful coastal towns, why come here??

Heavy industrial coil port here, can’t walk around, we did river cruise tour to see Hippos 🦛 around 1,5 hours drive to get there

Docked next to coal yard, coal dust bellowing along quay covering ship a people while long wait for courtesy bus to shopping centre

Docked next to mountains of coal and we were covered in coal dust. Dangerously unhealthy. No excursion

Horrible overpriced, could not hear or understand the guide with very poor PA system. Windows dirty - honestly we feel RIPPED OFF because after the cruise we had absolutely incredible fantastic excursions from a red bus company within Capetown for 1/4 the price
