Piketberg is about an hour’s drive from Cape Town and a half hour’s drive from the West Coast. Three self catering cottages from the period with secure parking will cater for two to three people each. We have added another 20 new self catering units that are fully equipped and sleep two persons each. At present we can accommodate 60 guests in total on a Bed & Breakfast or Dinner, Bed & Breakfast basis or self catering. The upstairs Conference Room is used for the Meals and All Receptions, Birthday Celebrations etc. A Conference Bar has been created to keep the functions very private with the use of the Deck overlooking the Beautiful Swartland.

Hey there, I'm Jake Schwartz. It's great to meet you! I performed my first magic shows at 2 years old, making my food “disappear” for my parents at every meal. I quickly became obsessed with the moments a magic trick could create. | However, not everyone enjoys being “FOOLED” over and over by a kid, so I learned how to tell STORIES through my magic. Suddenly, people weren’t made to be the FOOL, they were PART of a STORY. | Since then, I've won international awards, appeared on television over 70 times, performed in 3 World Tours with the most viral sports team on the planet as The Savannah Bananas’ Magician First Base Coach, and subsequently launched my very own theater tour - "The Game Changing Magic Tour: The World's Only Magic Show For Sports Fans." | This personable, up-beat, and experiential style of magic allowed me to help companies listed on the fortune-500, mom-and-pop businesses, new start-ups, Major League sports teams, World-Series Champions, A-List celebrities, and private groups across the country break down walls, get to know each other, and create LASTING memories through magic. | If you're looking for a personable, engaging, and mind blowing experience for your group - send me/my team a message!

Managed Rideshare Events ™ Ground Transportation
Managed Rideshare Events ™ Ground Transportation
Worldwide
Event Transportation. Rethought. Managed Rideshare Events gives you a smarter way to handle group transportation — without the gaps. Whether you need a luxury sedan for a VIP arrival, an SUV for the executive team, a van for staff and extended family, or a last-minute ride when plans change, we coordinate it all through a single managed account. From elite vehicles to EV options and autonomous services like Waymo in select markets, every tier of your group is covered. Managed Rideshare Events™ is not a traditional ground transportation company. We are a managed rideshare program provider — designing and administering customized Uber, Lyft, and many other rideshare voucher programs for event planners, associations, corporations, and institutions. We serve the space between small companies (who handle a few vouchers directly) and large enterprises (who have internal travel programs). Our clients need a dedicated, professionally managed rideshare solution for event attendees — separate from internal corporate accounts. Key differentiators: Voucher-based rideshare management for rides, food, and deliveries Serves SMBs, associations, educational institutions, and mid-market corporate events Truly global coverage through rideshare networks — unlimited fleet, 24/7, local languages and currencies 30–50% cost savings vs. traditional ground transportation for comparable vehicles Ideal for staff, attendees, job candidates, and large distributed crowds Not a fit for high-security, VIP, or motorcoach needs — but often a secondary solution for this type of event.
