- Julie· November 8th, 2025Really have to say, getting out of Cape Town showed us a different side of South Africa Our fantastic guide, Paul, was very knowledgeable and accommodating. The itinerary was full but still allowed time for us to take things at our own pace. Loved all the different places we stayed at too. Each of them was unique and different. If you're looking at coming to South Africa I highly recommend Explore South Africa Tours, something for everyone.Show more

- MIMani· September 5th, 2023Excellent Tour - Memorable trip thanks to brilliant customer service by Paul!! Our first ever trip to South Africa so we were anxious. Our tour guide and drive Paul was absolutely outstanding. Very punctual, very knowledgeable, very kind and courteous, and very caring. Extremely careful driver, he drove us to various sightseeing areas, gave us all the background information and pointed out the highlights to look for. Accommodation was generally pretty good with lovely hosts. Overall, we can't thank Paul enough for taking such good care of us that we felt that Paul was a family member driving us on the tour!! Highly recommended!!Show moreTrip date: August 2023
- Emilio· December 29th, 2022We enjoyed our tour with Paul Coetzee. He is very knowledgeable. The tour is well planned, itinerary is really great. I will highly recommend him.Show moreTrip date: December 2022
- JKJulia· May 16th, 2022Very very great experience travelling through Western Cape with Cecil and Paul Coetzee! 6 days is really enough for seeing the best places on this route - which is amazing and so variegated. There was always time to spontaneously take pictures or to fit stops to the wishes of us travelers. Cecil and Paul are great and super sympatic guides who showed places where we also got to know locals, non-tourist spots and very cool restaurants / cafes etc. I am totally recommending this tour! We added one night before and one after the tour in Cape Town and this was perfect. JuliaShow moreTrip date: May 2022

Asked on October 19th, 2025I would like to spend about 5-8 days in Cape Town and surrending areas starting from the 29th of October, visiting Cape of Good Hope, Cape Agulhus, Bettys Bay and have a look at the beautiful nature of the big five. Is there any specific tour please? OR is there any chance to design a sutomized one and include as well Victoria Falls even tough they are outside South Africa country?

Traveler•Written October 2025I'm a famale solo traveller, so for me the security is a foundamental aspect. Please take it into consideration while doing any proposal. In principle I would always avoid Johannesburg for the above mentioned reasons.
Explore South AfricaOperator•Written October 2025We require a minimum of 2 adults for a tour to take place but I do not have anyone else wanting to depart on the 29th October. However I have a tour running with 2 Ladies which you could join but you would need to fly from CT to George on the morning of 29th. This would be the last for days of the tour ending in Cape Town on 1 November.
