Celebrating 13 years of sharing our travel passion with guests around the world.

My name is Martin Oosthuizen, I am one of the directors of Jireh Tours CC/best-south-africa-tours.com together with Marius Smit and Herman Engelbrecht.

Our  travel consultant Tamzyn and accredited tour guides Thomas Harms and Vic Shulze forms part of this formidable team.

Let me share with you in short the history of our company and the services we offer.

Jireh Tours CC was founded in 1998 by Herman Engelbrecht (my father in law), a mining engineer who discovered his passion for travel at a late age. He soon became one of the best German Tour guides in South Africa. His reputation for detail, his care of guests and the way he made you see the beauty of our country through the passion of his eyes laid the foundation for a successful family travel business.

Jireh Tours CC/best-south-africa-tours.com have since grown both in its good reputation and ownership. Meet our team below: Feel free to contact me for some personal help.
