The ride was a beautiful, serene and intimate experience. Our driver / camera man, Mxolisi was wonderful and ensured that we experience a smooth ride, gliding carefully on top of the water. May God bless Mxolisi for serving with passion.

Refreshing

Nosihle_G, Aug 2024

The experience was good and we were a bit late for our ride but they still fit us in. However, I had booked for the picnic Gondola Ride but there was no picnic snacks like advertised.

An experienced worth trying.

Super mais

Super bien. Mais aucune communication avec le gondolier. C'est dommage. Pas d'échanges. Endroit tranquille et trajet court. On a fait des aller retour voire des ronds car le canal est petit.
