“I am a soldier in the US army and I found this course on google and thought I would give it a try as I was visiting South-Africa anyway. This course exceeded my wildest expectations in terms of quality of training and the incredible experiences that I had on this course. It is definitely a course of the highest quality and worth doing !”

“I completed the ranger course and I never thought that it would be possible as I was under the impression that you need to be a super human to do this. Not so. I felt confident and looked after the entire time by the instructor and I was allowed to learn the skills at my own pace. Highly recommended course “
