Val - Tour of Cape and Garden Route

Dear Cindy and Howard,

Thank you so much for arranging my wonderful tour of the Cape and Garden Route. Emma and Richard’s wedding was of course fantastic but the rest of the holiday was fabulous too.

I was unable to go up Table Mountain on my first Sunday but the guide from Paradise Touring fitted it in for me on my Cape Point trip.

The trip to Robben Island was also cancelled because of the weather and I was unable to rearrange it because the rest of the fortnight was so packed.

I enjoyed my private arrangements at Addo Elephants but missed seeing some wildlife because of the thick scrub there. However I went on a game drive at Botlierskop, near Mossel Bay whilst on the Garden Route trip with Hylton Ross Tours and saw lots more. This drive was a surprise to me but the others on the tour knew about it so it was obviously not an afterthought. I would certainly recommend Botlierskop, if someone was looking for game drives in that area.

All the tour arrangements through Paradise Touring and Hylton Ross were excellent and the guides were efficient and good company.

The accommodation at Leeuwenvoet Guest House was terrific. The ‘Leeuwenvoet Team’ were very friendly and I would certainly stay there again and recommend it to others.

Everyone I met in South Africa was friendly and welcoming. I had a wonderful holiday.

Thank you again for all your efforts to arrange such a lovely trip for me.

Kind regards,

Val
