RE: Our Holiday This was brilliant. Everything worked well. All the Self - Catering cottages were excellent as were the Hotels. Kariega was as you would expect just perfect. Our Grandchildren will remember this Holiday for a long time. Many thanks for designing such a great holiday for our family. Kind regards Ted & Ann Jackson.

Thank you so much for planning, securing and seeing that our trip was perfect. We all couldn’t have been happier with all the places we stayed and suggestions of places to eat and visit.

Wow what a holiday! Thank you so much for putting together such an interesting itinerary and booking such fine accommodation. We enjoyed every minute of it and whilst the train journey was certainly a highlight, so was Isandlwana and the day with Rob Gerrard.

Our three joint favourite accommodations were Isandlwana Lodge, Glen Avon and Fynbos Ridge.

We think South Africa is a fabulous country with many lovely and helpful people. I am sure we will return.

We have such wonderful memories of our trip and want to thank you again for all the excellent planning you did. We loved all the country houses where we stayed and thoroughly enjoyed the people there. What a lovely way to travel...packing the days full of adventure and then collapsing in one of these luxurious places!

South Africa truly is a marvelous place and we understand why travelers return there over and over. We feel that we had a terrific overview of the country and were grateful to have seen so much. We loved the safari too! Nottens was a great choice. Dave and I would love to do another safari sometime. Our pictures turned out very well.

Now we are home and have come up for air a little, can I just thank you once again for all the arrangements and planning you did to make our 'taster' trip to SA such a magical time. Every last detail went without a hitch and your suggested destinations and accommodations were, without exception, excellent. The 'bible' was our constant guide - both copies being perused in front and back seats!!!

We were all astounded by the majesty of SA and couldn't quite believe the breadth of the plains, we thought we were used to big skies from the American west!!

Once again, thank you so much for facilitating such a magical trip - we plan that it will not be our last!!!

PS I have brought back a few brochures on Kaai's Camp for you - it was a dream destination!!!

Following our return to the UK I felt that I must write to say how much we all enjoyed our holiday in South Africa. The programme which you organised was just perfect in every way. The real highlight for us was the two night stay at Woodall. Everything about the place was ideal, from the luxurious suite to the treatments in the health centre.The one night stay at Adin & Sharon's Hideaway was also memorable, such lovely people we really would have liked to stay longer. Five nights at Babylons Toren was also a good idea. The location was perfect, it allowed us very easily to visit the wine areas as well as Cape Town and Cape Point. Thanks once again for organising a truly memorable holiday, I have already started to promote your company with both friends and business colleagues.

Just a short note to say a big Thank You for our recent holiday in South Africa. We had a great time, with all the arrangements you made going very smoothly. We had a particularly good time at Tsitsikamma and Zuurberg. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend South Africa Sun.

Many, many thanks for a wonderful trip. Without your expertise and concern we would never have seen or stayed at such fabulous places. We can honestly say that it was our best holiday ever - you were with us all the way. To anyone considering touring South Africa they would not get better service with such attention to detail and we highly recommend you. Our thanks once again.<'p>

We had an absolutely fabulous time. The places we visited, the people we met and the stunning locations we stayed in were beyond our expectations. This was simply the best holiday we have ever had - one we will never forget. Thanks, personally, to you for the way in which you organsised the trip for us, the travel pack - the detail of which needed to be seen to be believed and helped enormously, and for the final touch of organising the upstairs seats on the way back - priceless!! We would have no hesitation in recommending South Africa Sun to anyone thinking of visiting South Africa - simply the best!!

I wanted to thank you again for arranging such a successful holiday for us. We were really pleased with all the arrangements, loved South Africa and hope to be able to repeat the experience in future.

When we decided to go on holiday to South Africa, there were so many possibilities we needed help to see through the choices. In South Africa Sun we found the perfect partner. They gave us honest advice and suggestions which contributed enormously to a wonderful holiday. Their personal knowledge about sites, routes, hotels, restaurants, how long to stay in each place etc., etc. was superb, but still gave us the flexibility to choose once we got there. Just before the holiday we received a superb pack of information set out day by day, this became our 'Bible' and was extremely useful. I would have no hesitation in recommending South Africa Sun to anyone looking to get the most out of their holiday.

This was a wonderful holiday. The itinerary you put together was perfect, all the accommodation superb and the recommendations in the care package - where to eat and what to see, were a great help. I think Whale Rock was our favourite but each place had something different to offer. What a lovely man is Adin (Adin & Sharon's Hideaway, Swellendam)

We have just returned from our South African holiday and I wanted to let you know how pleased we were with the arrangements. The holiday was all we could wish for - the weather was superb throughout - and we saw plenty of whales in Hermanus! This was the best holiday we have had in years (possibly ever).

It was certainly the holiday of a lifetime. It was: brilliantly organised, superbly tailored to our needs, provided for great accommodation and was excellent value for money.

South Africa Sun put together a tailor-made package for us which exactly met our wishes and provided invaluable advice on both accommodation and activities. All the arrangements worked perfectly and we had a wonderful family holiday. This was our first time in South Africa and it would have been impossible for us to organise anything nearly as good - or as good value for money - ourselves. We were impressed with the level of detail in the information and the very personal service and would strongly recommend you to anyone.

The personal service provided by South Africa Sun resulted in a tailor made holiday that surpassed our wildest expectations. Their 'Care Package' was the key component in making our many journeys as stress free as possible. I would highly recommend South Africa Sun and will be using them WHEN I go back to South Africa.

We had a fantastic fortnight in South Africa which was, in no small part, due to South Africa Sun's organisation. From the first time I contacted them I have had nothing but exemplary service. Their experience and personal knowledge were highly evident in the package they put together. If you're after the personal touch at competitive prices, then look no further than SA Sun!

We set South Africa Sun quite a challenging itinerary. The care and enthusiasm with which they arranged our holiday, together with the extensive and thorough guides, maps and directions gave us the peace of mind to enjoy a once in a life time experience. Absolutely fabulous! - we can't recommend them highly enough

The superb holiday you arranged for us was perfect in every way from beginning to end. Our cave at Kagga Kamma was amazing with all mod cons etc. People all very nice and we ate out under the stars by a campfire. Agulhas Country Lodge was a beautiful place....great food! Whale Rock Lodge was wonderful - as all the staff were. Wedge View was 5 star all the way - superb accommodation. Flights were good, roads excellent, restaurants excellent and the people helpful and friendly. Many thanks for your hard work!

We had the most wonderful holiday and a major reason for that was definitely the excellent work done by you at South Africa Sun!!! The holiday pack and itinerary was so well planned that we basically didn't need to look at a map to know where we were going. The details regarding the length/time of the journeys from place to place was really useful to help plan the day. We all enjoyed reading what we could look forward to for each journey and soon realised that you had made sure we weren't missing anything vital! We were all absolutely speechless at the beauty of South Africa. We went from one stunning area to the next.

Both Judith and myself wish to thank you for the way that you personally organised our trip. Without your help and guidance we feel that our holiday would not have been such an enjoyable experience. The itinerary you compiled for us was both individual and invaluable and we believe saved us an immense amount of possibly wasted time given the vast distances between view points, places of interest and of course eateries. Your attention to detail with directions etc. are, I am sure, unsurpassed and we would heartily recommend the service you offer to anyone wishing to visit South Africa. We believe we received excellent value for money and cannot thank you enough

Just wanted to thank you for arranging the holiday in South Africa for Paul and me. We enjoyed it immensely. It was a perfect combination of beach, safari and city activity for the time available. The quality of attention from the staff at all three centres was exceptionally high. They all made us feel so welcome. I had a bit of a fright at Sanbona when I discovered a scorpion about 3 inches from my (bare) foot in our tented lodge, but apart from that, everything was absolutely wonderful. Some people we met at Sanbona had 2 spare tickets for the 1 day international cricket match in Capetown and even though England lost that particular match, we had a great day and lots of fun with the people sat around us. While Paul was in the queue for a beer, he was chatting to a group of English men, one of whom turned out to be the pilot for our flight home! He came to see us when we were settled in our seats on the plane and apologised that he couldn't upgrade us because the plane was full, but gave us a bottle of champagne to compensate!

We had a fantastic time in South Africa. Thank you so much for all your help - it was greatly appreciated

Excellent!...Maps great...Hiking Great!

You were right, we had a fantastic holiday in SA. Your itinerary was our bible...it was fantastic

First class from beginning to end....lodgings, itinerary & helpful

The honeymoon was fantastic. We are desperate to go back and loved absolutely everywhere we stayed... Thank you so much for your help and advice and for running the voucher scheme for us. It was a trip of a lifetime but one that we would like to do all over again in the future!!!
