What you should know about Stirling Manor
When we walk up from the beach after a dive to the lodge we could smell the fresly baked muffins in the air and that was what made the breakfast so special. Tracy was an excellent cook and breakfast was the highlight of the day. At around 19h30 they arrived, as we rushed to meet them, we were greeted with high spirits and a flood of words; they got lost on their way to Hartbeespoortdam from the airport as the GPS they got from the car rental company wasn’t working. We as south africans always expect the worst (can anyone blame us?) Interestingly enough, our guests shared with us how they’d done their research on South Africa and that they could not find one positive thing about South Africa. After a few days in South Africa they were so suprised to experience the warm hospitality and friendlyness of our country and the local people. They got lost in the dark from the airport and all along the road were people assisting them to find their way. Sometimes they stopped along the road and local people gave them directions, and yes they arrived safely at the Guest House. They found our MacDonalds of a high standard, much better quality than in America. He became one of the first faces to meet them in the morning. He was so impressed with the service and friendly staff that helped him in the morning. We booked them for a dinner at Silver Orange Bistro one evening and ask the owner of the restuarant to look after our guests. They were so impressed with the excellent service they received. Our American guests were so grateful for the service of a car guard, they could not believe what a positive service this is to motorist. They were telling us while shopping at the supermarket in Atlanta, someone broke into their car and stole the radio from their car. Our guests was to be at the departure point at 10h45 and so be it, late. When they arrived back the evening at the guest house they could not stop talking about their great experience, service and friendliness they experienced with the tour operator and the tour guides. Once again the local people were friendly and could not do enough to make our guests feel at home. We had long conversations about South Africa and America and to see the faces of our guests when arriving back from a day exploring, that was rewarding. What they experience every day was completly different from what the media and internet was telling them. But the experience they had was just the oppisite in South Africa. Us as South Africans tend to focus on the negative and forget how much our country has to offer. When experiencing international tourist that completely appreciate our country and see the beauty then you feel proud and honour to be a South African
