Wonderful trip. Beautiful scenery. Very good service. Nice guide. - Rindra
What an awesome experience. Easy online booking system, friendly staff and service with hot cappuccinos before taking off. The boat trip was refreshing so early in the morning and exploring nature with the smell of Fynbos, Rosemary, Mint and CBD was a #happyeverlastingexperience. - Edward
Excellent service and hospitality. I can't stop looking at the pictures and telling my friends about the experience. We got lost on the booked day and drove up the mountain towards the towers. Thank you once again for rescheduling us and giving us a chance to experience the beauty of Knysna in the company of your hospitable crew and guides. We had an amazing time..definitely one for the books. - Mmathabo
I love bringing family and friends who come to visit us on this trip - it's a lovely way to see Knysna and to understand a little of the history and geography of the area. This was my third family group in a year. Thank you to all your team. - Claire
So much beauty in the world and this experience was one of those beautiful moments in life. Exquisite views from all angles and a gentle scenic walk to the ancient sea cave. Highly recommend. - Hayley
