Thoughtfully Designed Journeys, Tailored Around You
Tailored Leisure Travel Experiences
I’m Clive, a Travel Counsellor based on the Cape Peninsula in Noordhoek, working with clients locally and internationally. My approach is calm, personal, and shaped by many years of extensive international travel.
Before becoming a Travel Counsellor, I spent years travelling globally for both business and leisure. Those experiences taught me what truly matters when you’re away from home: comfort, reliability, smooth connections, and having someone in your corner when plans change. I bring that same structured attention to detail into every journey I plan.
I work particularly well with mature travellers and couples who value thoughtful pacing, careful planning and a reassuring level of support, especially for international travel. Whether it’s a European journey, a UK family visit, a river cruise, or a multi-country itinerary further afield, I focus on designing trips that feel well-considered rather than rushed.
Much of my own travel has taken me across Europe, Central and Southern Africa, as well as destinations including Singapore, Hong Kong, India, Sri Lanka and the United States. This practical, real-world experience allows me to guide clients through the logistics of international travel with confidence and clarity.
What I appreciate most about being a Travel Counsellor is the ability to provide dedicated one-to-one service. You deal directly with me, and I take personal responsibility for your itinerary from the moment you enquire until you return home. I’m also available outside standard office hours when needed, because travel doesn’t only happen between nine and five.
I would be delighted to help you plan your next international journey and create a personalised travel experience designed around what matters most to you.

Monkey Valley: A Forest-and-Sea Escape in Noordhoek
There are some places that instantly make you breathe a little deeper, and Monkey Valley Beach & Nature Resort in Noordhoek is one of them. Tucked into the slopes of Chapman’s Peak, overlooking that endless stretch of wild beach and the Atlantic, it felt to me like a secret pocket of calm just far enough from the city to properly switch off. I went expecting a pleasant coastal stay and left feelin

A Coastal Approach to Cape Town
Some journeys set the tone before the day even begins. On a recent drive into Cape Town, I took the long way round over Chapman’s Peak and along the Atlantic seaboard Where the city arrives gradually, framed by ocean and mountain. This short video captures a few quiet moments from that approach.
