40 of us went on a recent tour of South Africa ,Botswana,Zambia and Swaziland. Charl possesses vast knowledge about the history, economic and political status of each country along with excellent tips on where and what to see, He anticipates group and individual needs as well as being very kind and compassionate. I have been traveling abroad for 50 years , on tours and independently and have never experienced before a trip where every individual in the group had the same opinion about the guide and ,in everyone's opinion Charl was the best tour manager they have ever encountered. This is an unsolicited and unpaid opinion. Joan D, Minneapolis,Minnesota
