“Hi Jill A belated thank you to everyone at Mafigeni for a wonderful holiday! Absolutely fantastic time; everything was great. The food, accommodations, staff, excursions etc.were all top notch. Also feel very fortunate that our group saw so many amazing animals and birds. Jason was an awesome guide in Kruger!I was very impressed with Herman too. A young fellow who was so flexible and patient with us “ pensioners”! He really went the extra mile for our group. All the best to him in his career as a guide.Last but not least, my Cape Town trip. Terrific! Terry was a great guide; extremely knowledgeable. We really packed in a lot in a short time. What an absolutely stunning area. I am so glad I decided to do the trip extension! I got really lucky with the weather too….25c and sunny, just perfect (I saw on the news that Cape Town had torrential rains the following week!) I have friends who are interested in the trip so am passing on your particulars…and showing them my pictures.Thank you again & best”

"Good morning from Canada. We had good flights, home and slowly adjusting to Canadian summer (very humid) again. I just wanted to thank you and your staff family again for a wonderful holiday. I felt very well looked after accommodations, food, excursions and safety. You have good people working with you and a very beautiful country! It was a trio I never thought I'd be able to do, thank you for helping to make it happen. I will be telling everyone about your country, lodge and staff. Please extend my gratitude to all. "

“Hi Jill, just a quick note to let you know that we had a great time. Patrick took care of us from our arrival until he dropped us off for the return trip home. Lucia's cooking was A1 for all the meals. Everyone was enjoyable to be around and we felt quite at home. Extend our thanks to all the staff, Patrick, Alec and Hermund. We trust you will have a great year at Mafigeni..”
