Howick Falls and Nelson Mandela Capture Site 1/2 Safari - Vehicle didn’t have air conditioning, Speedo didn’t work and on occasions didn’t feel safe. The vehicle was not of a good standard. No water was provided and nil conversation occurred. Driver appeared to be inexperienced as a tour guide. The contact we received the night before was from a different person to the person who arrived so something must have changed. We understand that traffic was heavy on this day but the taking of back roads to try and get around the roadworks added further delays. The two sites visited Howick Falls and Nelson Mandela Capture Site were excellent. But since we arrived late we were not told how long we had at each site so felt we had to rush through these to keep on time. Overall a very disappointing experience.

No water was provided and nil conversation and driver appeared to be inexperienced as a tour guide. The driver that we got was not the person who had contacted us the night before so it appears that we got moved to another driver. We understand that the traffic was heavy on the day but by taking the back roads to try and bypass roadworks also caused further delays. The two sites visited Howick Falls and Mandela Capture site were excellent however as we arrived late we were not told how long we had at the site so we felt we had to rush through these to keep on time of tour.
