I loved seeing the seal colony in Kleinsbaai and all of the Shamwari experience.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
If your safe is too small don’t leave valuables to chance in your room - use the reception safe at your hotel.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
I take great comfort in knowing that the places we stay at through Responsible Travel benefit local people more than other places. The marine tour and safari experience supported conservation, and we made extra donations wherever we went. I don’t know that we had a smaller environmental footprint than we would have had through another agent - the bathroom products at some hotels were more natural than others but them main issue as always is plastic bottle size of water.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
10/10. A totally wonderful experience expertly put together by the tour company.Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
