Thanks for a great experience this weekend.  Even the rain did'nt dampen the spirits.  Great chatting aroud the fire, with plenty of grub to eat.  The abseiling was wonderful as was the rafting, even though the laughs were at my expense on the latter.  Will see you again sometime, we hope.

A huge thank you to Brett (and Justin) for a great camping trip.  Enjoed every aspect of it.  I'm sure Justin was glad to see the 3 brats leave (jokes!)

Brett is a genuine outdoor adventure guide who knows his stuff.  Will recommend Amahlati Excursions to anyone who needs to break away from it all.

Thanks very,very much for guiding our family this week.  We enjoyed the game drives, repeling, rafting, horseback riding and hiking.  Your knowledge and patience were both much appreciated.  I will be sore from laughing for the next week.  I hope our paths will meet again, but if they don't, all the best to you in your future!

Paul Voorhorst

Brett, what a wonderful week!!! I saw things and did things that I thought I would never do.  Abseiling was FANTASTIC!  I never thought I could do it ... You were very patient and reassuring.  thank you! It was a great experience and I would do it again.  Even the water rafting was fine.  I really enjoyed the game drives and seeing all the animals up close and personal.  Thanks for your patience with our family.  You were great with Ben & Rachel.  I wish you all the best with your dreams for your future and do hope our paths cross again!  Thanks again for a wonderful week!

Karalyn Voorhorst

Brett, thank you so much for a great trip  and thank you too for the wonderful guiding.  Even though we got lost a few times, it was always a fun new adventure.  I enjoyed every day even falling in the river while rafting.  Hopefully we'll get the opportunity to come back to visit you again sometime.  Thanks for a memorable vacation.

Ben Voorhorst

Brett, it was a great week with you.  I had a great time on the game drives and rafting.  Sorry I chickened out about the abseiling.  Oh Lord, deliver us! Thanks for one of the most memorable vacations ever.  I had lots of laughs and a great time.

Brett, the time I have spent with you on our tours was exquisit.  My husband enjoyed the time also.  No one could be patient as you were and as fun with the witty sayings.  Hope to spend time with you again either here or if you come to the States you will always have a place to stay.  Good luck & may God bless.

I had a great time on all of the tours.  I don't know how you got us to so many wonderful places on time!  Your knowledge on plants, stars & animals made the holiday that much better!  Thanks for your patience and humor.

Brett, thank you so much for showing us Africa, the real Africa!  You are so knowledgeable about plants, animals and places.  You bring the country to life.  Thanks for sharing it with us.

Brett is the real deal!  He's knowledgeable about animals, fauna, insects and everything else that lives, grows and survives in South Africa.  With his helping guidance we saw and learnt things we never ever imagined we would see or experience.  Thanks, Brett, for giving us a fabulous time.  When we come back we want to spend more time with you.

John Barrett, Texas, USA

PS: Thanks for a fabulous South African experience. 

Ditto to all the above!

We spent 3 days with Brett touring game reserves and shopping in Port Elizabeth.  we have 2 words to describe the experience - knowledgeable and accommodating throughout the trip.  Brett's knowledge of the plant and animal life (and his ability to spot them) generally exceeded that of the guides at the reserves and made the trips a richly rewarding experience.  In addition, no request was too large no question too simple to respond to, quickly, thoroughly and always with a pleasant attitude.  All in all, Brett made an ordinary experience extraordinary.  A pleasant and enjoyable experience.

PS: I totally agree with my husband's description of our experience with Brett & Amahlati Excursions, but he forgot to mention that Brett's extraordinary knowledge of the skies & stars!  He truly was a fountain of formatand with a delightful personality to add to it. 

Best experience for us all! 

******************************************************

Thank  you very much for the wonderful and enjoyable weekend in the Reserve.  The game drive, the camping, the hikingand the rafting where fantastic!  Especially the bread last night was delicious.  We definately will tell our friends!

Mike and I had a wonderful time today hiking with Lynn Phillips while Brett prepared the ropes to repel down the cliffs near the Fish river.  Mike did it through out any problem.  Brett did a wonderful working with us before and after.  I loved it.  It was easy to do.  He is very reassuring and patient with you.  I would do it again and I will recommend it to friends back home.  I would love to come again.  Good luck with your adventure business!

Abseiling was great!  Had great fun water rafting!  Great family outing. Food well worth waiting for.  We will always remember these 3 days, especially the Quinns sitting on the rocks after every rapid - then trying to horse ride!  Thank you!

I had a truly amazing game drive through Addo. Saw many elephants, zebra, red hartebeessts, warthog, kudus and much more.  The bestest was the appearance of the Cape Buffalo midday at the Hapoor Dam.  Fantastic day, thank you!
