We went, in March 2012, for a golf trip in South Africa. The organization by Dive The Big 5 has been amazing. It was actually the best I had in 10 years of golf trips with my friends.

Tim is a warm and efficient man and his knowledge of the country and of the golf courses is amazing. Every transport, guide, hotel reservation has been right on the money. In summary, it is the perfect partner for your vacations in South Africa.
