It's Nice To Meet You

Hello and Welcome!

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover” – H. Jackson Brown Jr.

My name is Marion Pearson and I am your Travel Counsellor! I am locally based here in sunny South Africa. Johannesburg has been my home since I was 19 years old but every time I travel I leave a piece of myself behind… I suppose in a way a “marker” for me to return and relive the memories. I am the youngest of 4 children and I am very close to my siblings, family is always close to my heart and I would not be the person I am today if it wasn’t for them.

Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in 2021, as a young adult, I always had the dream of travelling and exploring the world. To reach this dream, there was only one way – study and learn as much as I can. I qualified with distinctions in a Travel & Tourism Career Diploma, City and Guilds Certificate and GDS system course. Since 2004 I have been fortunate enough to work in various sectors of the travel industry; corporate and leisure travel, tour operator, leisure and groups. This lets me develop skills in planning and creating the most memorable experiences for my clientele.

One of the perks of being a travel agent in this industry, is the opportunities it afforded me to travel, both professionally and personally. To experience first-hand the destinations and places that I love and then to be able to share this with my clients is invaluable. Some of the destinations that I have been to include: Mauritius, Seychelles, Zanzibar, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Australia, Thailand, USA, Greece, Austria and Croatia. I always had it on my bucket list that I wanted to set foot on every continent, so far I have 5 down (Africa, Asia, Australia, North America, Europe) with 2 more to go; Antarctica and South America.

I hope to hear from you soon to find out about your dreams, bucket list destinations and adventures you want to experience.

Our personalized trip to Spain was absolutely flawless, all thanks to our incredible travel agent, Marion Pearson. She took the time to truly understand our travel style and preferences, and her hotel selections couldn’t have been more perfect! From the cultural charm of Madrid, to the serene beauty of Playa de Barrañán, the excitement of Resurrection Fest in Viveiro, and the vibrant energy of Barcelona, every stop on our journey felt thoughtfully planned and perfectly tailored to us. Marion went above and beyond, handling every detail with care, from arranging our airport and hotel transfers to ensuring we were always conveniently located near the sights and experiences we love. We especially appreciated how accessible she was throughout the trip, even sending us our flight passes and keeping everything organized through a user-friendly app that made the whole experience seamless. What sets Marion apart is her ability to anticipate exactly what we want, often before we even ask. Every recommendation felt like something we would’ve picked ourselves, that’s how well she knows us. Thanks to Marion, every trip feels uniquely ours. We can’t wait to plan our next adventure with her!

We had an outstanding experience working with Marion as our travel agent. She was incredibly attentive to our needs, going above and beyond to ensure we found a package that perfectly met our family’s requirements and budget—great value for money. Marion was patient as we reviewed the options and had several follow-up questions and additional requests. Her responsiveness was top-notch, and she always provided clear, professional, and pleasant communication throughout the process. What really stood out was how she checked in with us while we were traveling and upon our arrival to make sure everything was going smoothly. We will definitely be using Marion again for future travel and highly recommend her to anyone seeking excellent service and personalized travel planning.

Hi Marion. Last but not least!!! We would like to complement you on everything that you have been involved in on this tour. Nothing went wrong. You were proactive in supplying any tour documents and assisted where we got stuck, such as the flight from Nairobi to Arusha. In some instances, you went beyond the call of duty to assist. Thank you so much for a job well done. Kindest regards. Thys and Ansie
