It's Nice To Meet You

My name is Carla Rebello, and I am based in the beautiful city of Cape Town and happy to call it home.

Travel is in my blood. I have worked in the industry, as a leisure and corporate travel professional, for 42 years and have travelled to more than 25 different countries. Unfortunately, I have not been everywhere, but I am working on it!

As a Travel Counsellor I run my own business and am in control of the type of service that my clients receive; it allows me to offer you excellent personalised service, no matter where you are in the world. With Travel Counsellors, I enjoy the support of a prestigious company and an extensive global network of Travel Counsellors. The industry-leading booking system and global buying power enables me to design bespoke holidays to any destination.

I believe in the saying, "To travel is to live" and I encourage my clients to travel and explore as much of the world as they can, but if I had to choose my favourite holidays to sell, it would be island, ski, and adventure holidays.

I look forward to being your Travel Counsellor and turning your travel dreams into beautiful lasting memories.

What my customers say

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.

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.

Carla Rebello has been phenomenal and this has been my second Indian Ocean luxury vacation done with her . Her timely responses and quick follow up shows her commitment to client satisfaction. She also had incredible insights about the resorts that were on my shortlist and when she did not know something she quickly researched and engaged with her network to answer my question

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Carla - her knowledge of travel packages and Mauritius was impeccable and most helpful. The vacation that we have booked, which includes Christmas 25, is extremely exciting and we are so grateful as a family in the knowledge that all aspects of the holiday have been covered by Carla and Travel Counsellors. We are as prepared as we can be and are so looking forward to this break - we haven't been to Mauritius in over 20 years. Carla provided us with many package options at leading hotels and we're very happy with the package we have settled on at Maritim Resort & Spa. Thank you again for your professionalism, continuous engagement, expertise, attention, support - it is truly appreciated, and we will definitely share our positive experiences as a referral.
