Gave us a refund within the 24 hr window, due to cruise not stopping at the port.

Unfortunately, we had a very bad cruise and didn't stop at this port amongst other ports, and he was so kind to give us a refund.

Nice tour, you can make

Tour was quite nice. The coastal scenery was great and so was Sardinia Beach. Colin is a very hard-working guide, so it was very entertaining

A different perspective of Port Elizabeth

It was not quite what I thought it would be, (very tame) BUT guides were very knowledgeable. A lovely family business.

Simply superb

My wife and i took this trip from our cruise ship. Communication beforehand was excellent. And on the day Carlin was a wonderfully kind and likeable guide. We were with two other Cruise passengers in a 6/7 seater car, so there was plenty of space. And Carlin's lovely Dad had 4 other guests in his similar car. We all took the tour together in the 2 cars and it was superb. The sand dunes were the highlight for me. But it was all good.

Port Elizabeth tour

Carlin picked us up at our Cruise ship for our personal tour for two of the coast of Port Elizabeth. He was very knowledgeable and took us to some interesting areas along the coast, including a lighthouse and a Penguin rescue centre, which was fascinating and carries out essential work to save the Cape Penguins (an endangered species) The tour ended back at the ship and despite the rain we had a really good time. The trip was very keenly priced too!

Recommended excursion

The tour took us into nature around Port Elisabeth. Carlin, our guide, has told us all sorts of things about the country and people, about the different sights, gong on questions we wishes. He was a super guide, well-positioned, good-humored, communicative. The tour was very worthwhile and Carlin is highly recommended. We were picked up at the cruise terminal and brought back again.
