South Africa family holiday
One special moment I shall remember is the magnificent braai organised in Scotia Park after a days game watching. The personal attention of the ranger, the quality and quantity of the food, the free bar, the kindness, the gentle music played around the campfire and the intimacy of the environment made this braai an unforgettable high. (more)

Self drive South Africa holiday
It was all memorable! The whales in Hermanus really caught our attention as they swam passed us and were literally 10 metres from us. Definitely no need to go out in a boat to see them! The itinerary worked like clockwork. (more)

Garden Route luxury accommodation
The lodge is a fantastic place to stay in a stunning setting. The standard of accommodation is very high, with simple but good quality furnishings, and the set-up for families in two-storey rooms works very well.  (more)
