I visited South Africa between 23 Oct 2008 and 3 Nov 2008
"Overall a great holiday, we did have one problem - the hire car. It didnt arrive when expected which meant we were hanging around on the first day. After several calls itt arrived the next day."

"General comments"
I visited South Africa between 16 Dec 2007 and 30 Dec 2007
"A good trip was put together at short notice.
Generally the style of accomodation used was aimed at relaxed time in hotels rather than a more active agenda. Set dinners were a bit restrictive at most places - both the limited menus and the timings. Food appeared pricey compared with other SA experiences but we have nothing to compare with on this trip.
Two hotels did not have information about local places of interest - Rosenhof Country House, Oudtshorn and Hunters Lodge, Knysna.
Expert Africa's information about finding some hotels was insufficient - we had to research the web to find directions; predeparture information did not include advice about set meal times (which we found restrictive); Predeparture information was fragmented in the "book" provided, and covering letter; there was much more focus on Namibia than South Africa and it was not always clear which information related to which country."
