    Zacharia did an excellent job of providing information about South Africa’s history and the towns and cities we visited. He was a very safe driver. He acted in a professional manner and was punctual. The accommodation was excellent especially in Johannesburg and in Hazyview. The planned activities as well as the optional drives we paid for were excellent. We appreciated that Zacharia took us to visit a school when we requested it. The pacing of the tour was very good for our age group (seniors).

    Zach was the best guide. Intelligent, knew his history and passed it on to me. An excellent driver, he took me to every place listed on the tour. Then if some place was of great interest, he taught me all he knew about the cities, cultures, agriculture and changes in the land and why. Oh just to add one more thing. Patience is a big part of his ability to be great with people. Thank you Zach Irene Curtis

    In general accomodation was very good except Swaziland and Anew Hotel close to Hluhluwe National park. Breakfast was so far ok, but dinner or lunch that was included sucked. Unfortunately I was not happy at all with the guide. He was not knowledgable (he tried to sell Frangipani for Protea, he insisted that we had a 3rd world war and in November South Africa celebrated its ending etc) and a very lazy guy only interested in high tips w/o doing his job. The worst guide I ever had on any guided trip. Travel route was nice.
