Brilliant - Pastor done an amazing job, this wasn’t my first experience with him and won't be the last. An insightful knowledge of honourable kingdoms who held morals, an abundance of culture and a reverence amongst each other that few adhere to present day. Butnow, Millicent and the rest of the team done a great job showcasing the different cultures who all followed a similar code of conduct, but in their own way. Thank you to all the team who work hard day in day out

Wonderful introduction to South Africa - My sister and I spent a lovely day here. We arranged for tour with transportation. Our driver, KG from Mhlanganisi Travel was prompt, efficient and gave us a lot of information about South Africa and the village on the hour drive to the village.
The village is set up to represent 6 tribes and guests are taken to each village by a guide where they are introduced to the customs, housing styles, clothing , language and a bit of history. At the end of all the tours there is a show which features traditional music and dance from the tribes. We chose to also include lunch which was substantial and had some traditional South African cuisine. There are quite a few souvenirs available at very reasonable prices. This was a great introduction to the culture of South Africa and our driver is hughly recommended.
