My four clients and friends were very excited about their visit to Southern Africa. It was the second time that the Japko family trusted me with the design of their trip to the lower part of the continent. And it was an adventure for us all!
We started in Camps bay where our accommodation furnished us with a magnificent view of the beach and posh residential area on the Atlantic. We dined at established restaurants and experienced a traditional South African braai!
We visited Walker Bay and looked for whales as we tasted the wines of the gorgeous Hamilton Russell Vineyards.

This weekend I guide four Italians for three days, it's a pitty I don't accompany them to Vic Falls and the Lowveld alas!

Work is slow, I know I need to work with other nationalities also. English, America, in fact I am planning a trip in February for an American family of four. Adam. Liz and their boys: Alex and Matthew. This is going to be a great trip in Cape Town, Vic Falls and Hwange. Game viewing, wine tasting on horse back, rafting.. I look forward to the activities.

Tomorrow morning I am guiding from the Cape to Garden Route, stopping over @ Rainafrica in Swellendam. Staying over in Knysna for two nights, visiting the Klein Karoo, Ostrich farms and the Cango Caves. Monday morning I send the Guests to the Lowveld from PE, and I return to Seapoint. I look forward to the lovely Coastal parts of the drive, and the variety-intense-red-yellow-coloured flowering Aloes along the way. Winter in the Cape is fantastic. Kirstenbosch and Cape Point were some highlights on our Peninsula Tour yesterday, gorgious colours and scenery everywhere.
