Nathan was a great tour guide, learned a lot from the language, to native species and plants of beautiful South Africa. We got great tips for traveling (such as what routes are the best to see Penguins). We were worried the fog was not going to let us see but he said once we got out of the Cape Town city area, it cleared up and we were able to enjoy, hike and take lots of photos!! The sun was on our side! Wish we had more time to shop/ buy souvenirs! ♥️🇿🇦

This tour was just the right amount of time and sites. I was cranky at the start because it was raining and chilly (and I had just spent 3 days in the cold rain in Wales), but our guide Mireille brought such good energy and spirit that the day just got better and better. And the sun eventually came out too. Returned to my accommodations in perfect timing with some great memories and pictures of beautiful sites, penguins, ostriches, and fun tour mates.
