About Owen

Hiring a houseboat on one of South Africa’s many waterways is the ideal way to get away from it all, kick back , relax and enjoy the splendour of your natural surroundings from the comfort of your own home. Our slogan is “Captain of your own holiday” and that is exactly what it means. Unwind, relax or enjoy great old-fashioned family time with your loved ones in an environment that is unhurried and unstructured while you pilot your own craft. Lightleys Holiday Houseboats are South Africa’s leading houseboat company since we have pioneered houseboat holidays and with 33 years of experience under our belt we have expanded our operations to four more exciting destinations in Southern Africa.
