Our first but not last trip to S. Africa

South Africa between 30 Mar 2008 and 13 Apr 2008

"Everything worked perfectly from start to finished. All the arrangements made were perfect and the whole trip hassle free and very enjoyable.

It was a most memorable experience and one we would like to build on sometime.

Given our fantastic experience I cannot offer any advice on how you could improve! We were very impressed.

Many thanks to Claire for arranging such a perfect trip!!!!!!!"

Oulap Country House, South Africa (this camp has since closed)

"A unique experience"

2 nights Arrived 4 Apr 2008
"Oulap gave us a completely different experience from the rest of our trip. The place, the location, the owners were very different to other locations. Meeting Jans Rautenbach was fascinating and we thoroughly enjoyed and learned from the conversations over dinner. Both Jans and his wife were wonderful hosts and you really felt that you were house guests in a private house."

Kwandwe Ecca Lodge

Kwandwe Ecca Lodge

"Left the best until last"

3 nights Arrived 9 Apr 2008
"All of the places we stayed at and visited were great but Kwandwe has to be rated as the best. Everything about it was memorable. The safari drives were very well done and we saw everything that we hoped to see - and lots more. They were fun, interesting and educational. The place itself is magical with great lodges, food and service."
