Excellent tour seeing all aspects of Capetown and an insight into how people live. It was a pity Table mountain was closed due to wind but that can't be helped. The guides were so informative and helpful. Thoroughly recommend Blessing and Vekhinos as guides.
We drove down to Smith town and saw the African Penguins. Had lunch overlooking the harbor. Then a beautiful drive along the coast. We also stopped at an ostrich farm along the way.
Shanyai gives excellent service. The trip to Tsitsikama( Eastern Cape) was phenomenal. The tour guide was knowledgeable and amazing. The vehicle we used was in top.notch condition. Well-done Shanyai
We were recommended Mr Mele as a ‘trusted’ guide, and he certainly lived up to that reputation. He was enthusiastic, efficient, reliable, most importantly, knowledgeable in term of where to visit and when. As a result we really enjoyed our holiday in a very relaxed way without any hassle. We didn’t only get to see the most beautiful parts of Capetown in their best, but we’re also introduced to their historical and social backgrounds. Thank you Mele & daughter!
