Sometimes, sometimes all your expectations are just exceeded completely, this was one of them. Oh my word!!! Firstly, you have the feeling that you’re driving to the end of the world. You wonder, what can possibly be in this part of the world that makes tourists come this far? Cleopatra is a gem and I [...]
After roughing it just a little bit in Lesotho we went back into South Africa. It’s amazing how the scenery immediately changes although the areas are right next to each other. I guess it’s like going from The Netherlands into Belgium. Although you don’t expect it to be different you immediately notice that it’s not [...]
Did you know that Lesotho is the country with the highest lowest point in the world? Everything in this mountain kingdom is at least at 1000m above sea level, even the lowest point.

Carne Restaurant in Keerom Street, CBD, Cape Town. WoW!! For the REAL carnivore what a treat! Everything was perfect, venue, menu, waiter (we love you Mike, we do!), except…..1 little thing, the seats of the chairs were quite small. Now, well, I’m not exactly a size petite but I think more people might [...]
One of the beautiful perks of having a travel company, is being invited by all these wonderful establishments to come and stay when you give them guests.
