Ralph Louw

Ralph was terrific! I walked the Whale Trail hike with him and his wife Gillian in November 2016. His passion for the flora and fauna was infectious, and he was an all-around nice guy and great to be around. He helped make the hike the highlight of my trip to South Africa.

I feel really fortunate to have had Gillan and her husband Ralph as my guides on the Whale Trail. Their thoughtfulness and knowledge and passion made it a really special experience. Gillian's also an amazing chef -- I still can't believe we ate so well considering that she only had the most basic kitchen supplies at her disposal! She really goes out of her way to make sure everyone is having a good time and well taken care of.

I'd happily go on another hike with Gillian in the future; I hope I do!
