Perfect day, guide was amazing

Amazing day starting with a beautiful heli ride around the three bays and table mountain. Special thanks to RAY for making the day so amazing and for brilliantly organising everything so we went from one activity to another and enjoyed every moment. The Graff restaurant outside Stellenbosch had the best view of any restaurant and superb food. Very highly recommended!
