Since its formation, Rockjumper Birding Tours has been supporting the conservation of the birds that bring us many delightful hours of sheer bird watching pleasure.
Learn MoreThe tour was thoroughly enjoyable with excellent leaders, wonderful birds, generally comfortable accommodation and fine company. The two leaders, Andre and our Chinese guide, did a great job. Both were friendly, excellent birders with extensive familiarity with calls and other really useful knowledge for finding and identifying the birds, as well as a willingness to ensure all members of the party saw the birds we encountered wherever possible.
This tour will take you to the beautiful and interesting Cape Town area and many other areas of the country that tourists often overlook. There are many fairly long bus rides, but the bus was first rate for such a tour and the roads, with the exception of the gravel roads, were smooth and well maintained. Our leader Paul Josop really took care of us and went out of his way to make sure everything ran smoothly and that individual needs were met. His knowledge of the birds was phenomenal and he could ID everything by sight or sound. Very patient and intent on making sure everyone had a chance to see everything. A great personality and a caring person. We kept a bag of untouched breakfast and lunch foods and he made sure a needy person got it. Impressive. The lodging and food were very good to outstanding. Comfortable. At Haut and About B and B and other lodges the food was freshly prepared for the group and the dining settings had local atmosphere. The pelagic trip and trip to see the Gannets were of great interest, and everyday there were lifers to be seen. Final thoughts. This is more a birding trip than photography trip, altho I did get some good shots. I took my 600mm f4 and wished I had left it at home. Used it once. Too many stops and the blinds we did use were small. I typically used my Canon 100-500, often with a 1.4 teleconverter and others used the same lens. There was a Nikon 180-600 in use. All good choices. A great experience for my first time in Africa. Way to go, Rockjumper!
Our group leaders/guides worked hard all the time to ensure that the tour went smoothly and timely because instructions were clearly conveyed. There were incredible sightings and rare finds. The accomodation and meals were good but I have to commend our stay onboard the Dorinha, an excellent experience. I felt well looked after and enjoyed my first tour with Rockjumper immensely, thanks especially to Bradley Davis, Dusàn and driver Marinaldo.
Fabulous tour with a huge number of endemics. Glen, as always, was an amazing leader. The ground staff were second to none, with superb organisation, and our every need catered for - and more!
Paul was one of the best tour leaders I have ever had the pleasure of travelling with. He was incredibly enthusiastic, excellent at showing you where the birds were and keen to ensure that everyone saw the birds. Nothing was too much trouble for him and the tour went very smoothly thanks to him and the local guide (who was also excellent). The accommodation was sometimes a little basic but presumably reflected what was available in Ghana. A brilliant tour.
Paul was amazing---so energetic, enthusiastic and knowledgeable! Sweet and fun.
