  4. Hi I would just like to share my expierence of this tour. I have never been on a guided tour before and when a friend of mine told me about this tour I was not sure whether it is something that I would enjoy, but after arriving back yesterday I have to admit my first tour with S A Guided Tours but God willing not the last! The tour was awesome, the guides Frank and Peter fantastic! Peter has a great knowledge and Frank has a wonderful future ahead as a tour guide, I can recommend anyone wanting to make a dream come true to see the sight of this wonderful part of our country with the nature astounding you with the variety of flowers blooming only once a year – do not miss out, S A Guided Tours take you to places you have never heard of and they go the extra mile to make your holiday special and I want to thank both Peter and Frank for making my holiday one to remember – AMANDA KEMP
