It was the most enjoyable experience. So much fun tasting the different Pabala gins. The knowledge we gain from different tonics and different fruit add ons was incredible. Presentation was awesome and we received first hand attention. Thank you Pabala

Less enjoyable. We were too many people for the one vehicle. We(two rows at the back) couldn't hear the guide when he spoke. I think he could have been more ethusiastic and although there isn't much wild he could have spoken more about the area. He told us about the old lady making cheese and couldn't answer questions though he has been 3years a guide at Pabala. Told us at picnic table about a group that gave him an enornous tip-felt that was a hint-not professional. Otherwise it was nice driving on the range and seeing the different bokkies and even the giraffes

Mixed response. Having attended one the year prior at your venue ( beautiful views of the valley, well laid out table, honey combs, etc), drinks on the stoep etc = why we did the trip again from Jeffreys . You can imagine the let down when we had to attend this one in a small office, with only view AND sounds of the toilets outside the room and people noise moving past in the passage. This was bad - gave impression was a rushed job to find a place to present etc. The Bee keeper was great, the presentation informative, passionate, fascinating BEE story, and enjoyed. Maybe not his decision of the location, and he continued well despite my son raising his strong dissatisfaction - which I supported. We marketed your place prior, how we enjoyed it previously etc. Remember its the experience we were after, that includes the look and feel, the atmosphere etc, more than just tasting honey
