In June / July 2019, we had the wonderful experience of the Rovos Rail Shongololo Southern Cross trip.   

Dries was the guide, for which we are grateful.  Through Zimbabwe, Mozambique and the northern provinces of South Africa, he shared on history, culture, flora and fauna.  

Quick with identification of all birds,  he is a wealth of knowledge.

His quiet manner shone through, and constant reapect for all.

We saw his patience with less abled members of the larger group, duirng the climb to Greater Zimbabwe ruins.

Thoroughly recommed Dries, if you want to learn.
