South African Butler Academy - Testimonials

The South African Butler Academy is not just a wonderful learning experience but also a journey to discover oneself. SABA creates the perfect environment to become a butler with distinction and surrounded with people that becomes your family. Every day is a step closer to becoming a professional butler satisfying every need of your client. I was worth coming all the way to Cape Town from White River.

I was sceptical in the beginning, because of the fact that I have a lot of Hospitality Experience and work all over the world, but today after nearly finishing the course I must say that I have definitely learned a lot. At SABA they teach you how to become a Butler with Distinction. It does not matter how much experience you have, everything you learn here helps you to grow more. SABA is really a great Academy where someone without nothing can really become something. It is a lot of fun as well and you really become a family here. I would really recommend SABA Academy for any person that would like to become a Butler.

After all the experience I have from all the hotels that I have work for has not come close in the past 14 years, yet you can't say I know everything. Here at the South African Butlers Academy I have even come and learn more that I didn't know that someone can run a household for someone. I would send my child here one day if she would like to follow her father's footsteps because what I'm doing is in the family. Thank SABA for bringing out the real Henry in me. The South African Academy is for everyone. This is the first course I've most enjoyed from all the courses I've done before. I meet my real family here I blend in naturally. Ayoba SABA Ayoba
