My family visited South Africa with Paul Coetzee from Explore South Africa twice, once in January 2017 and more recently in November 2019. We were a group of 12 people with elders above 60 and children from 13 to 2 years old.In both cases, Paul patiently helped customise our tour over several months via email and Whatsapp so that it could accommodate all our requirements for Muslim ( Halal ) food, accessibility and safety for the children. We did the Garden Route in 2017, driving from Cape Town to Port Elisabeth for 1 week with stops for safaris and garden route views along the way. In 2019, we drove from Durban via Swaziland on to a safari in Kruger Park and then to Johannesburg. The road trips were well planned with comfort stops and lunch breaks. Each overnight stop was a real pleasure in excellent accommodation and great facilities. They were facilities I did not find on internet booking sites and that seemed to be used by the South Africans for internal tourism. So it made using a local guide very much worth it. Paul is an extremely kind, helpful, patient and resourceful person who has dealt with our shopping sprees and large number of luggage bags with a lot resilience. He showed us the best of South Africa and relentlessly searched for the animals until we managed to see the big 4. The only one we didn't see was leopard. But he extended our last day driving down to the leopard trees areas to try and find one. He is very knowledgeable and is happy to explain and share information. I would highly recommend his services to anyone going to South Africa and wish him continued success.

I really loved this ad really felt honest and animal centric. Animal hospital on site, very knowledgeable guides, one on one tour available. There is no option for silly posing or pranks, animals are not there to be petted.. just what i wanted.. Animals being left alone! You can go in the enclosures with the smaller cats, but at a distance, unless they choose to visit you. Such a good day.

Choosing a tour operator to book tours with can be a little overwhelming, we knew we wanted to hire a guide for our Garden Route tour because I wanted a break from driving and also because I wanted to relax on holiday. My friends from Ireland recommended Rob at Cape Convoy and once I read the reviews the decision was easy. What to add to the reviews already written? We loved Rob! He was funny, knowledgeable and really knows what he is doing. It was just great fun. Recommended without hesitation. We took the tour in November 2019

A few years ago my family and I were looking for someone to help us plan our South African holiday and we discovered Cape Convoy in Trip Advisor. After Rob helpfully answered our questions we booked the Garden Route tour and it was a great decision. We all had a wonderful time, the kids lived Rob and the accommodation was well located. Rob also took us to the Cape of Good Hope and we loved the Penquins. If you're looking for a wonderful tour with a great guy then your search is over! Thanks Rob
