I had to cancel my trip - and am so disappointed. BUT… During the preparation, reservation making stage ( including having to shift my original dates) and, finally, the cancellation stage ( that still kills me) Vaughan was friendly, efficient and very quick to respond. I really do hope to get to Cape Town soon. No doubt about it - I'll try to stay with Vaughan again.

Helpful note to travelers: SOUTH AFRICA REQUIRES TWO, CLEAN, STAMP FREE PAGES IN YOUR PASSPORT. I was stopped from flying there since my passport was getting full. I couldn't arrange a fixed passport in time to make the trip.
