Michael was polite, considerate, very knowledgeable and showed us cool things off the beaten track. Even looked for a pharmacy when we needed. His relationships made every stop more than just the normal tourist stop with friendly, happy to help people. Nothing felt forced or over played making the overall day great.

This tour was one of my favorite parts of my week in South Africa. Mike was our tour guide, and he was AMAZING! He is a native South African and an official tour guide who knows his stuff. All day he kept us entertained and taught us things as we drove up and down the peninsula. The private tour was intimate and comfortable, and Mike was able to customize the experience to fit our needs and desires in a way that one of the larger tours could not. And he was a great photographer for us as well. Mike and others at the company communicated well before the trip, and Mike was punctual, accommodating, a safe driver, and everything else you would hope for in a driver. I cannot recommend this company and Mike specifically any more highly.

My family visited South Africa with Paul Coetzee from Explore South Africa twice, once in January 2017 and more recently in November 2019. We were a group of 12 people with elders above 60 and children from 13 to 2 years old.In both cases, Paul patiently helped customise our tour over several months via email and Whatsapp so that it could accommodate all our requirements for Muslim ( Halal ) food, accessibility and safety for the children. We did the Garden Route in 2017, driving from Cape Town to Port Elisabeth for 1 week with stops for safaris and garden route views along the way. In 2019, we drove from Durban via Swaziland on to a safari in Kruger Park and then to Johannesburg. The road trips were well planned with comfort stops and lunch breaks. Each overnight stop was a real pleasure in excellent accommodation and great facilities. They were facilities I did not find on internet booking sites and that seemed to be used by the South Africans for internal tourism. So it made using a local guide very much worth it. Paul is an extremely kind, helpful, patient and resourceful person who has dealt with our shopping sprees and large number of luggage bags with a lot resilience. He showed us the best of South Africa and relentlessly searched for the animals until we managed to see the big 4. The only one we didn't see was leopard. But he extended our last day driving down to the leopard trees areas to try and find one. He is very knowledgeable and is happy to explain and share information. I would highly recommend his services to anyone going to South Africa and wish him continued success.

We were a group of family of 6 and enjoyed every second. The driver was very informative. Our first stop was LilyPatrick, which is a new brewery and it was unforgettable. In our group was a few anti beer and brqndy drinkers, but they partook every time and it was hilarious.
