I
was born on 19 June 1958 in a small country town in South Africa called Paarl
and I grew up in a farming village called Malmesbury. Both these towns are in
the area called "The Western Cape" of South Africa, which is very
famous for its agricultural production of wheat, fruit and wine. Farming and
therefore the soil of the earth is a very important part of my heritage. I am
unmarried.
I
started my w
During the past 15 years I have however
involved myself in numerous other skills in an attempt to broaden my horizons
and further my interest in other passions. I purchased 2 aircraft and started a
charter company that flew visitors around the Cape
As
food and wine MUST go together, I have been developing my cooking skills by
attending numerous cooking and bread baking courses, specializing in Italian and
Eastern cuisine. Eating out with friends is an absolute favourite pastime of mine
and as my expanding waistline will attest, we do this very often. :)
Finally,
and this is what has prompted me to start this personalized tourist service, is
my love for international travel. During the past years I have travelled to the
France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Far East Asia, New Zealand, America, England, Israel, Argentina,
Austria, The Czech Rep
I
am affiliated to "SATOUR", our National tourism authority, with whom I
am registered as an approved guide and I am also a fully paid up member of Cape
Tour Guides Association. I have carved a niche for myself in the exclusive,
highly personalized luxury tour market where I provide very detailed, tailor
made, tours for mostly professional retired English
I
mostly host private tours consisting of two guests and I only operate
air-conditioned vehicles that are both certified and
licensed by the public road transportation authorities. On the odd occasion I
might host more than two guests but then only if they belong to the same group.
I never mix groups, as this would defeat the entire object of my style of
touring. The vast majority of my touring is for a select group of 5-star hotels
in Cape Town as their preferred tour operator. I have
been taking care of these hotel's private, individualized, non-scheduled tours,
for about 10 years.
I
hope this short resume gives you a brief insight as to what I am about and what
my areas of interest and expertise are. I am very passionate about my interests,
as I am about showing people the hidden treasures that abound in Cape Town. "Anything is possible if you are prepared to try hard enough." ROB DAVIDOWITZ
