We saw so much of South Africa in just six days. Paul was polite, well-mannered and always on time, and dropped us off distances which we could have easily walked on some occasions; showing that he always had our safety in mind. We stayed in a range of accommodations, all of which were clean and spacious with decent breakfast provided, and some of which were spectacular. Would certainly reccomend.
