An incredible experience incorporating history and journey of the Khoisan, learnings about natural plants used for food and medicine, the language and all the clicks and sounds, the guides were great — authentic. The food was outstanding and the general offering of accommodation, tours, sundowner viewpoint is simply unmatched. A real gem on the West Coast and a MUST visit.

A lot of art, history, folk lore, culture, herbal medicinal info. Also really beautiful view. We did the self guided tour and took over an hour walking round and could have stayed longer. Would have loved to do their tea tour. Next time!
