    The tour fulfilled my expectations and was organised very nicely. As a person that does not take tours I was not quite sure what to expect but our guide was excellent. He was knowledgable, an excellent driver and blessed with a good understanding of human nature. The accommodations were on, the whole, far better than I had expected. The food while far from brilliant was varied and generally acceptable with breakfasts being the best meal of the day in terms of quality.

    We had a fabulous time. Our party consisted of 12, from 9 different countries and we all got on really well. Gabriel and Paulus looked after us really well and were informative on our excursions. We particularly enjoyed the desert walk.
