Mthunzi is an AMAZING guide. He is so knowledgeable and patient! He kept us safe and confident as we ventured up table mountain and abseiled down! He took the most memorable photos kindly and kept us at a comfortable pace. I don’t think the experience could have been any better. Thank you SO much for an incredible adventure Mthunzi!

As part of our 40th Anniversary celebration we booked to do an abseil on Table Mountain, South Africa. We booked this prior to arrival in South Africa. Thankfully the weather was favourable and we made our way up the mountain in the cable car to meet the Team. We received a safety brief and the equipment was demonstrated. The Team gave very clear instructions, demonstrated how to use the equipment and helped us to put the harnesses on. They took photos and videos for us and when we were all happy we began the descent. It was so exhilarating, the views were tremendous and the sense of achievement immense. Thank you Mthunzi, Howard, Jordan and Lloyd for being part of our celebration and taking photos that we will treasure forever.

Our guide, Mthunzi Mehlomakulu, was kind and patient with us 50-year-olds! He really took his time—giving us proper breaks and time for lunch before the abseil. When my husband decided not to go, Mthunzi went down with me, which was incredibly helpful and reassuring. As a first-timer, I found the descent far from straightforward and honestly, quite scary. The guys at the abseil were also just as pleasant. Just a note for fellow Americans: while the hike may be considered “medium” by local standards, it definitely felt more challenging to us!
