Recruitgroup is one of the largest privately owned recruitment organisations in South Africa in finding and placing top talent. 

Cape Town, South Africa June 2, 2014 - Every year many people take a visit to South Africa, or the Rainbow Nation. However, most of them don’t get to experience the true South Africa or to enjoy the authentic South African culture. However, a company called Pozay is about to change all of this.

Pozay.com enables visitors to South Africa to better integrate with its people by allowing them to join up with a host family. This means that rather than going to a restaurant in South Africa, or taking the usual, well-worn tracks, tourists have an opportunity to better explore South Africa and its culture.

Instead of dining at the usual restaurants or tourist venues, Pozay.com allows visitors to Cape Town to dine with a family. This can be a rewarding experience for everyone and provides the opportunity to discuss culture, find out more about each other, or just have fun together.

Pozay.com already has many satisfied customers. One said:“A Brilliant idea! Wish this was available in every city. It’s a fantastic way to explore the culture of a place.”While another said:“This was amazing. Beats another dinner in another anonymous restaurant (that could be anywhere in the world). Was the highlight of my trip!”

Many tourists prefer to use their own vehicles, however, Pozay.com can also arrange the transport, ensuring the tourist gets safely to their destination and back. Integrating with a family will help to give a unique experience and provide a holiday that the tourist will never forget.

Our host families come from a diverse range of cultures, allowing the tourist to choose the culture that they want to experience. Pozay will then arrange an unforgettable event for the tourist.

Bookings for this unique experience can be made via the secure online payment system; for peace of mind, all of the host families have been carefully vetted.
