A glimpse of Port Elizabeth and Safari. - The guide divided the city part of the tour into two. And in between the two halfs of the city was the safari. Wish we could have gone on the safari first early in the morning for more animals. After we were over with the tour I understand why it was between the two half's. The first part was everything new and including memorials to Mandela. The safari was really good considering how small the "farm" was. The guide Quintin was exceptional. Explaining much about the plant life as well as how the animals interact. The second half of the city was enlightening. Explaining where apartheid started. Taking us through the section where the poorer of poor live. And how they are surviving. Wish we would have had a hour more overall.

Highly Recommended - What a wonderful day we had today. Our guide Esaudore was just delightful; knowledgeable, interesting, very courteous and thoughtful. Able to adapt to what we needed and wanted. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough. I loved it was a private tour and the wineries and restaurant ( in particular) were perfect. Stunning scenery. Thank you!

Pleasant walk through beautiful Port Elizabeth - We had the grateful satisfaction of seeing the beautiful city of Port Elizabeth in the company of Janina. Even before we arrived in South Africa, we were contacted by her to confirm that everything was ready for our tour. Once we met her personally, we were immediately conquered by her sympathy, love for her profession and the city where she chose to live, with her husband and the baby that is on the way. We made the tour of the main tourist sights of this interesting city that conquered us for its unique beauty, which has a markedly Victorian architecture, but which still keeps the historical record of the Portuguese presence in the region. Highly recommended, especially with Janina. Thank you for welcoming us to your town. We hope to review it someday either in South Africa or even in Brazil. Big hug

Perfect tour through fascinating Port Elizabeth - A great tour with Janina, who knows P.E. like her waistcoat. Especially the many details inspired us. Janina not only knows history and sights but also gives many valuable tips: Recommended restaurants, good beaches, the coolest craft beer pubs, the best shops for crafts. All around a great and very infortmative afternoon with a highly competent guide. Thank you Janina, it was really great! Daniela & Friedrich

Cancelled our tour 9 days before departing for South Africa! - We booked and paid for this tour on December 9, for a tour to begin at 9:00 on February 6. We were sent a ticket, which we printed out for the trip. On january 9, we get a message "Janina here from Into Tours. I love showing travellers Port Elizabeth and am looking forward to our tour." She asked if we wanted to add an animal park, which we immediately declined, having spent time on safari years ago. There was no further communication until January 22, 9 days before our departure to South Africa, when we received this message: " Many thanks for your reply. We have the scheduled tour booked and we would have loved for you and Tricia to join. Because we are in Addo in the morning on tour, we would have to collect you and Tricia in the afternoon and the time of collection might not be at 13:00. This will inconvenience you and therefore I think that the best would be for you to book your tour with another service provider who has a scheduled tour running to Port Elizabeth city only. Kindly cancel the booking with us. Best regards, Janina " Now I have to figure out how to cancel the tour and try to book another one during our cruise ship stop in Port Elizabeth. Hopefully we are not out the $106 we paid in December; we booked through TripAdvisor, but can't find a record of it when we checked in to the web site. This is absolutely unacceptable behavior on the part of the tour operator, Into Tours; we fortunately have never been treated this way on a booked and paid for tour. Stay away from this one!
