We had two amazing days in Hermanus and wish we could have stayed longer. It was a wonderful hotel with the friendliest staff – and the food was incredible! Thank you for planning our day tour to the Cape of Good Hope, transfers and accommodation.

We hiked with Pernille on the Skeleton Gorge trail, up to Table Mountain. The hike was amazing, and Pernille is a very experienced and knowledgeable guide, who helped us enjoy the nature of Table Mountain, and made sure we didn't miss any bits of it. At the end of the hike, we enjoyed a the fantastic view over Cape Town from the top of the mountain. We highly recommend Nonophela Travel, and we will definitely use their offers and services for our next trip!
- Marco & Vera, Italy & The Netherlands, September 2022
Every accommodation you chose for us had its own charm and we really liked each place.
Thank you for the perfect organisation!
- Ulrike & Burkard, Germany, July 2022
We had a wonderful 10-day trip to South Africa, including seeing Cape Town, the wine district and safari. Pernille organized everything for us, so the trip was only enjoyment. Organizing the trip prior to traveling was extremely efficient and enjoyable and Pernille followed up with us during the entire trip. I would strongly recommend Nonophela as a tour operator for your travels because of how easy the communication and planning of the trip was. Sometimes dreams seem far away, but thanks to Pernille and Nonophela mine came true!
- Siren & family, Norway, April 2022
