What travelers are saying
T was the best tour guide that we have ever had! She was funny, a great driver, and extremely knowledgeable of the entire area. She felt like a great friend rather than a tour guide by the end of our day. It was a great first day of our South African trip!
Our guide, XOCHITLE, was wonderful.
Danny our tour guide was the absolute best. He was knowledgeable, fun and helped us take some exquisite photos. He curated the best route for us and we were even able to hit extra locations. One of the best tours because of him.
He went above and beyond what could’ve been expected for a person who needed special care. He even brought back to the ship my cell phone, which I had left in his car. He was a great guy besides all that.
