South African Adventure ending with Kruger Park
In general, activities were well organized and diverse. Capetown accommodation was centrally located but clients should be offered opportunity to request bed size. Hermanus was a beautiful stay. It was marred by an unnecessary long wait at a gravel parking lot in the blazing sun for clients who chose not to do the whale watching excursion. Guide should have timed departure better. As it happened, clients not participating in this excursion waited in the parking lot while the whale watchers lunched after their excursion.

excellent tour
This tour was excellent. All accommodation was well above expectation. Lots of included meals that were excellent. Willem our tour guide was very passionate and knowledgeable. He provided a lot of information with patience and humor. Both of our drivers (Chris and Deni) did an excellent job. They always had a smile and helped when they thought help was required.

Expect ed the U expected
I woluld say the South African Escape Tourwas worth a penny. At first I was apprehensive at the same time excited going to South Africa because of fear of the unknown. However, it turned out that I have not expected what I have experience with the people, their culture and heritage which was extraordinary. The itinerary brought me deeper knowledge and insight which allowed me to appreciate and value my attendance.
