With Shane in Johannesburg is like to be in safe hands

Published on Nov, 2024

Amazing experience with Shane. A good blend of professional and ethical values. He has good knowledge of history, etiquettes, places to visit, which normally other guides do not share with tourists.

A very dependable guide

Published on Nov, 2024

Shane is very experienced guide,he took us round the place,and informed us even minute details ,he is well mannered and knowledgeable,we would recommend him to hire his services to anyone who wants to visit south Africa especially Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town,you will not find such a decent fellow as a guide,his driving skills are par excellence....

Outstanding tour of diamond mine, Pretoria and Voortrekker Monument

Published on Aug, 2024

The day trip was outstanding. The 2 hour surface tour of the Cullinan diamond mine was good , and the little village interesting with great coffee. We saw the major sites of Pretoria with our guide’s stories about growing up there. The Voortrekker Monument and museum were very interesting with Shane’s commentary about the history and displays, and his inside knowledge. Great views from the top. Shane is an excellent guide , very pleasant all day and gave us lots of interesting history, facts and stories about South Africa. The drive passed quickly as he answered our questions. Good value, a highlight of my time in Johannesburg, highly recommended.,

Excellent tour from beginning to end

Published on May, 2023

This was a truly outstanding tour. Cullinan (now Petra) Mines was very interesting and my guide was an excellent host - very friendly, personable and helpful. He deserves to be congratulated. The mine’s guide was also very knowledgeable. I have travelled around the world several times and found this tour amongst the very best.

What a fun tour and our driver Shane was great. The tour ended a little early and Shane went above and beyond driving us around showing us different sites.
