Do you know whether you are likely to be running the Battlefields and Drakensberg tour (or similar) early January 2024? I will be staying in Stellenbosch until December 31st and would like to travel to the Eastern Cape immediately after this. I am a single traveller.

Not a problem to start inquiring, I will put you on a waiting list and let you know of bookings made in Jan 24, as the tour needs a few bookings to be able to start.

What will the price of tour for me and wife? (Pensioners)

This was a bucket list tour that I’ve always wanted to do. I must say, the Flower Tour is unforgettable and a must for everyone. The flowers are breathtaking and indescribably beautiful—no photo can truly do them justice. I saw a large part of our beautiful country, and every small town and its people have their own charm. I met amazing people on the tour, and we laughed and chatted as if we had been best friends for years. I would definitely recommend the tour.Show more
