I joined an amazing 10-day road trip with Traveloma with a stunning itinerary. I always felt very safe, and I loved every single day of the trip. I'm so grateful for all the unforgettable memories and experiences. Highly recommended!
Anna Lena Zeiler: Garden Route trip, 2024

Tobz was the nicest travel buddy I could have asked for, and it felt like travelling with an old friend. He gives great insights into the importance of inclusive and sustainable tourism, and of course into the amazing and welcoming Xhosa culture. This made my time in South Africa deeply touching, important and truly special. A journey I will remember forever.
Lorena Bilic: Wild Coast Adventures, 2023

During our road trip, we experienced the whole variety of South Africa. Tobz gave us very interesting insights into people's daily life and social and political issues. We would not have seen and understood this without his local expertise - much better than traveling by yourself!
Karsten Schmidt: Johannesburg to Cape Town, 2019

We had an awesome time in South Africa. We saw beautiful nature, wild animals, beaches, oceans, mountains. We learned about the history of South Africa and stayed in rural African villages and vibrant cities. I would travel exactly the same way again!
Levin Gsänger: Johannesburg to Cape Town, 2019

Our journey to South Africa was a once-in-a-lifetime trip with many unforgetable experiences. The trip was very professionally organised and implemented. We would always travel with Traveloma again and strongly recommend them to everyone else.
Monika & Dieter Mettner: Chintsa to Cape Town, 2018

Tobz is a great guide. He is so friendly, open-minded and inspiring. I wouldn't want to travel with any other person. I'm already making plans for my next trip with Traveloma with my friends.
Vanessa May: Wild Coast Adventures, 2018

I can absolutely recommend this tour! A wonderful and very varied insight into South Africa and its beautiful people. Very nice and competent tour guides. I travelled with Tobz and Annika in 2017 and loved it. Don't think twice, just do it, too!
Dr. Martin Reiss: Chintsa to Cape Town, 2017

What a fab tour Tobz and Annika put together! We had it all: wild coasts, spectacular beaches, wildlife, vineyards, city life in Cape Town. Got great insight into South African politics and history, talked to inspiring entrepreneurs, met amazing people, hiked, laughed, enjoyed sundowners at stunning places. Tobz and Annika simply know what they are doing! So much more than just a holiday, highly recommended!
