Client Feedback:

“An outstanding 65km trek along the high edge of the very special northern Drakensberg escarpment. One of the world’s Top 10 walks - everyone should do this in their lifetime!
We used Traverse Line to organise this trek for us, and were delighted. They offered good value, and do tailor-made expeditions. We cannot speak highly enough of our guide, Ian, who was charming and very experienced – one of the best we’ve ever had.”
