The first spring tour of 2015

Four couples set off for the first tour of the spring; two
couples, who were returning clients, from Germany, Thomas and Claudia and Heidi
and Werner, while Jona and Dick were welcomed from Holland then Philp and Lee
joined from Australia.
The first adventure stop was the famous Kruger National Park
for the 8 day safari tour, followed by a tour exploring the magic of Cape Town
and afterwards Philip and Lee continued on the 5 day Garden Route tour.
Highlights
A pair of rhinos were spotted in a battle against one
another. Thomas described the rhino battles as, ‘’Amazing how two gigantic
rhinos pushing back and forth, with horns colliding, are so quiet. I would have
expected to hear panting or something, but nothing at all apart from the sounds
of horns striking.’’

The couples were impressed with the house cheetah Ntombi at
the private Game Reserve. They embarked on a safari walk and wheel with the
game ranger; after a 3 minute stroll the shadows of Ntombi’s brothers were
spotted. When the brothers arrived the ranger stroked them and they headed off,
wheelchairs and cheetahs, into the reserve.
That evening a magnificent Kudu was seen standing in front
of Thomas and Claudia’s
bungalow!
The three couples visited Jessica the Hippo and Thomas found
it to be ‘’Just incredible, we never thought that it was possible to get as
close to a hippo, to feed or kiss one. ’’
The famous Big 5, which include the lion, rhino, elephant, leopard
and the Cape buffalo, were also spotted among many other wildlife!

‘’The tour with Alfie and Charles was a pleasure. Everything
was perfectly organized! The tour was also perfectly balanced between safari
drives and periods of rest, so we had a very relaxing holiday. All
accommodation was fully accessible and perfect for wheelchairs. These
experiences we will never forget.’’ - Thomas and Claudia Mawick
