About Tour Guide Anneke M.

I have travelled a great deal around the world and different cultures and food is the highlight in my life. I have decided to change to this way of living and if I can share my knowledge, experience, humor and being your best tour guide ever, why not? South Africa is a great warm captivating country - and so am I. I have experience and knowledge in Culture Sites, but the Winelands, Karoo, Namaqualand and the beaches all fall in my interests and expertise.
