Excellent and informative tour. Was given a choice to change the day as the weather was poor. Very friendly guide.
Kyle was a great guide and happy to answer any questions we had. It was a good way to see the highlights of Port Elizabeth. We enjoyed the beach and lighthouse stops.
Excellent guided tour of Port Elizabeth. Interesting places and insight into the historic architecture and monuments
Kyle showed us lesser known sites in Port Elizabeth as well as the major city sites. He was very knowledgeable and we had a great tour.
Kyle was an outstanding tour guide, he is beyond knowledgeable. He shows us around the city and to the sandy coast where the lighthouse is standing all by its lonesome. The best part of the trip. I asked him about local eateries. He took us to “This is Eat”, a local Halal Seafood house by the fishermen wholesales area. The owner and his staff was so courteous and wonderful. We have the best Calamari and fish and chips ever. They are fresh, tender and juicy. Best wishes go out Kyle, This is Eat and Port Elizabeth. We have a wonderful day trip
Excellent tour, only 4 of us and Kyle made it so interesting, good knowledge of his town, so enjoyed it, can recommend this to anyone visiting Port Elizabeth who want to avoid large crowds.
Great sightseeing Tour with Kyle from Urban Africa Tours. It was a city tour but also took in a couple of beautiful beaches. He was very knowledgeable and friendly and would highly recommend.
Look for the less recognized places and explore nuance in more recognized ones. Explore the history of the Apartheid era in the South End museum.
