Dear Nicki,
We have returned from our marvelous South Africa vacation back to South America yesterday evening, tired but very happy. The travel met and even exceeded our expectations and was a full success.
Phinda Zuka provided us with a perfect surrounding for the special celebrations of Marlene's and Guillermo's birthdays. The Zulu drummers & dancers with the choir made an ever lasting impact on us. There were no dry eyes in the room. The Phinda team made us feel at home from day one and Patoa's delicious cooking impressed us meal after meal. The ranger Hendrick and our tracker dedicated themselves to us 120% and our cameras are filled with more than 4.000 fotos as a result of that :)
Londolozi pampered us with elegance &simplicity and did not fail to bring us close to the famous leopards. The service there was also impressive and the spacious rooms at Tree Camp took our breaths away.
The last days of our vacation in Cape Town were more focused on sight seeing and shopping. The weather did not allow us to get up to Table mountain, but a city tour and a full day Winelands tour gave us a good sample of the beauty of the region. The cloudy weather also "justified" the time spent at shopping :)
We would like to Thank You for your dedication, professionalism & recommendations and excellent attention to detail which greatly contributed to making this such a unique vacation for us.
We will surely know whom to contact or recommend if a travel to Africa should be in the plans in the future.
Very warm regards,
The extended Haverbeck family |
