I had a lovely time and i think it was my best trip away so far in terms of location and activities. However, the people make a big difference ultimately and there was this girl in the group who made things slightly difficult for the CEO. She always had something negative to say and complained - i thought it was very unnecessary. Overall i had a great time and all the other people in the group and the CEOs made the experience absolutely awesome!

Very comprehensive and wonderfully varied tour with a lovely and knowledgeable leader, Omar. Some long driving days, but with stops for short visits. Mixture of hotels, some better than others, but all authentic and interesting. Food was often sadly disappointing and unvaried. Would be good if some research could be done on safe restaurant options in the towns on the itinerary. Two trips into two deserts for overnight stays were particularly impressive. All in all I would definitely recommend this tour.

A great tour full of variety. Although there was a fair amount of travelling involved, it was definitely worth it for all the different experiences we had . Visiting local families and eating with them , alongside walking in the mountains were a highlight for me. Hassan was a wonderful guide, informative, kind and caring to all. He took us to some amazing local restaurants every night, which we would never have found!

KwaNogqaza or Howick Falls is approximately 95 metres in height and lies on the Umgeni River. The local Zulu people named it the “Home of the Tall” referring to its height. Next to the fall lies a quaint old section of Howick that houses a number of historical museums and antique stores. Next, head to the Nelson Mandela Capture Site and Apartheid Museum. The Capture Site boasts a large sculpture of Nelson Mandela made up of multiple steel columns. Tourists at the Capture Site are required to stand 35 meters away the steel columns to clearly see the large bust of Nelson Mandela in focus. Facing west the impressive sculpture is a unique monument for the local Howick community. The Apartheid Museum is dedicated to Nelson Mandela’s life and his struggle against the Apartheid government.
