Born on the Cape Flats (Cape Town), South Africa and had working class Grandparents (Grand-Pa was Jewish/German and Irish) & (Grand-Ma was Scottish/Khoisan) origin, parents to my Mother; My Father had English/Slave mixture parents. District-6 was where it all started and people were later moved to the Cape Flats area South East of the city. I grew up in tough areas on the Cape Flats where gangsterism just started changing the environment, but I was fortunate to attend a good English School and had an academic study which stood me in good stead. Tourist Guide/Driver Operator (13) years now since leaving an Electronic Television company, working as a Television Repair technician after (21) years of service. Tourism and meeting new people from around the world is a passion and not a job, I cherish and give my best to all my tour itineraries. Clients enjoy my company as I do day-to-day and overland tours to various parts of my country South Africa. My experiences entails the South African Provinces and SADEC countries like Swaziland, Lesotho, Botswana, Namibia and Zimbabwe. Excellent communication skills and culture/history with wildlife and floristic knowledge to entertain my guest, on short day trips to the ultimate safari (21) day overland safari. Always available for a tour as thrive on the opportunity to excel and share my tour knowledge to the clients expectations. My ultimate tours are safaris with over-landing to different parts of South Africa and foreign SADEC neighboring countries. Managed and was Chairman of a Soccer Club for the underprivileged youth where I reside now in a place called Mamre, "Where David pitched up his tent, Abraham dwelt in a place called Mamre" (Which is Hebron). Genesis 27: 36. Always dreamt of one day owning my own franchise and company, and what better field to do it in than Tourism with international guest visiting my country South Africa. On offer is the "Big 5" and lots of other wildlife that is mostly living on the brink of extinction if not protected. That is where the Tourist will be of value in securing future sites for these animals to live in their natural environments.

Overview of your Cape Town tour

Game drive at Buffelsfontein with the Big5 in their natural state and environment. Ranger with open canopy truck for views. Animals are free roaming lions and a leopard (black), in confined enclosures. West Coast National Park - (Optional) We tread back in time when the tribal indigenous indifferences was settled by the powder keg cannon and musket gun. Pre-historic man-like hominid species lived along a coast rich in pelagic cuisine, rolling out onto sandy beaches with the ebbing tides. Cuisine still found in the cold Benguela Atlantic sea, with rock lobster, abalone, mussels, calamari and lots of different dishes from the still knowledgeable peoples of today. Centuries of cooking styles passed down from one generation to the next, where the ingredients was a secret and good for the taste buds. Allow me to take you to places which was first sighted by the Portuguese (1487), Dutch (1652) and English (1795) mariners, finding the route from Europe and travelling to their new world via the West Coast.

Absolutely amazing experience, thank you very much!

If I could rate our day with Reginald higher, I would. He met us at the Cape Town cruise terminal after our disembarkation in a vehicle large enough to haul our luggage for the day. He gave us some options of things to do before our 2:00 safari. He provided lots of history and commentary during our driving time, answered all our questions, took us to interesting small towns, took us to an olive tasting, and drove us through the national park before the beginning of our safari. The safari through Buffelsfontein was fabulous. The guide/driver was knowledgeable and found many animals for us. Then Reginald took us to the airport on time for our flight. It could not have been a better day.

We had a great experience. Reginald was full of information about the area and shared a lot of information with us. The safari was amazing. Lots of habitat in their natural environment including an unexpected close up encounter with Max the rhino.
