Excellent support from Zene

Zene was extremely helpful in steering…
Zene was extremely helpful in steering us towards the right high-end safaris in the Eastern Cape that we were looking for, viz Shamwari and Oceana. Since my husband has fallen ill and cannot travel any longer, she has also helped us with securing some rebate from Shamwari (to follow) and has been sympathetic to our misfortune
