More Than a Travel Counsellor – A Trusted Friend and Guide
Working with Carla has completely transformed how we experience travel in South Africa. From the very first conversation, it was clear that this wasn't going to be a typical client-agent relationship – it was the beginning of a genuine friendship built on trust, care, and an extraordinary passion for creating unforgettable journeys.
Local Expertise Beyond Compare. What sets Carla apart is her remarkable depth of local knowledge. She doesn't just recommend the popular tourist spots – she unlocks hidden gems and secret hideaways that most travellers would never discover on their own. From tucked-away restaurants where the locals gather, to breathtaking viewpoints off the beaten path, every recommendation feels like insider knowledge shared between friends. Her insights have led us to experiences we'll treasure for a lifetime. Always There When It Matters. The level of dedication and personal attention is truly exceptional. Carla doesn't disappear once the booking is confirmed – she checks in regularly, ensuring everything runs smoothly and that we feel supported throughout every trip. Whether it's a quick message to see how the flight went or proactive updates about local conditions, we've always felt genuinely cared for. Travelling can sometimes feel uncertain, but with Carla's in our corner, we've always felt completely safe and confident.
In a world of automated responses and impersonal service, Carla stands out as someone who truly invests in her clients. She remembers the small details, understand our preferences, and always goes the extra mile to make each trip special. It's like having a well-connected family member who happens to know all the best places in the world.
I cannot recommend Carla highly enough. If you're looking for a Travel Counsellor who will treat you like family, share their wealth of local secrets, and make you feel secure every step of the way – look no further.

Claire planned and booked our all inclusive trip to Mauritius, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the very first quote to the thoughtful after service, every detail was handled with such care, warmth, and professionalism.
She arranged everything including pre booked dinners, shuttles, flight check ins, and detailed pre travel guidance. She also checked in with us throughout our stay to ensure everything was perfect. The surprise gifts before we left were such a beautiful, personal touch that made the experience feel even more special.
Claire doesn’t just book holidays, she creates truly memorable experiences. We felt completely taken care of and stress free the entire time. We are already planning our next trip with her and could not recommend her more highly. ❤️

10/10 This is the second time my husband and I are using Travel Counsellors for our holiday. Previously I used to do the planning myself, now I am happy to have the idea, give it to Kerith who in turn produces lovely ideas and itineraries. She is also happy to edit it as we wish. I will always use them going forward.

We have just returned from a fabulous holiday in Namibia.
Carla was a recommendation from a trusted friend and what a great recommendation it proved to be.
From working with us on the itinerary and choice of hotels to supporting us when we were 'on the ground' and needed some added support.
At all times, we felt that Carla listened to our ideas (and budget), something that can be missed by less personable travel planners.
Louise and I are happy to recommend you trust Carla with your holiday and we hope to have the opportunity to use her services again.

Everything went absolutely perfectly! A great two weeks, but a pity my leave is somewhat used up now for a while! Thanks again for everything. I do always suggest you to friends and others when there are any discussions of travel that could potentially be handled by you.

Lizl is one of the best Travel Agents we have used. She is prompt and always willing to help even if you decide to make changes last minute. We are in great hands and love knowing we have someone to call when we are in need while we travel. She also organised our Bali trip with our 3 boys and it went smoothly and the accommodation was exactly what we needed. Thank you Lizl
