"Has anyone here been on one of Ian's tours ? "

Sort of "yes" and sort of "no", Coll. And therein lies a long story.

Yes I have been on tour with Ian.
I was part of the 2010 Holts Battlefield Tours trip to KZN.
The Tour Guide was Ian Knight, assisted by Paul Marais.
Just 8 Brits on this tour, that took place April 13th - 27th, 2010

Following the tour, I put together an illustrated talk "A Tour of the Anglo Zulu War Battlefields" using selected photographs that were taken by the tour members.
This talk has proved very popular with local societies down here in the West Country where I live, particularly as I emphasise the "Devon connections" with the AZW of 1879.
More recently I presented this talk at the June 16 AZW event at the Brecon Museum, where it was well received.

I certainly would recommend the Tour - but it is not cheap.
But it is very comprehensive and covers more than just the battlefields; And of course, it is lead by Ian Knight - a factor that convinced most of us to select this particular Tour.

You'll be able to join Ian's forum once it is up and running.

Hopefully his site will be a huge success.

Sir BCP...

When you say 'not cheap', I immediately think in Brit parlance..'dear'.......Wink...For this colonial could you perhaps translate to perhaps dollars? Your answer will help me on my way to the dongas one day. Thanks ahead.
