This was my second visit to Featherbed Nature Reserve this year - the first one was on the most perfect day in January and I honestly didn't think it could get any better. Fast forward 5 months and I was lucky enough to take the rest of my family in May on another spectacular day and the experience was exceeded. This is one of the most incredible full-day activities for the whole family. In fact, It IS the best Knysna has to offer. Anyone coming to the town needs to make sure they add the Eco Experience Tour to their to-do list. The tour was amazing and informative, the hike along the coast is breathtaking and easy and it all gets perfectly rounded off by a fresh, delicious buffet lunch. The staff are all wonderful and friendly. Thank you once again for offering such a special family experience with memories that will last for a lifetime. I really cannot wait to visit again! - Brand Family

I had not been to your new facility since the fire and I was very impressed. My guests (rom Denmark and New Zealand) enjoyed the trip as well. I'm sorry I don't have photos to upload. Thanks Johan Touch Africa Tours - Touch Africa Tours - Johan
