Hi, my name is Rina and I would like to welcome you to my leisure travel web page.
I am a personal Travel Counsellor. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to explain how I can help you to optimise your travel plans.
I am located in the beautiful town of DOUGLAS .. in the Northern Cape area of South Africa. Although my sphere of influence extends countrywide due to the fabulous technology that I have at my fingertips. No matter where you are in the world, I am able to assist you.
I have over 35 years of experience in the travel industry and I have worked most of these years in retail travel. During this time I have received numerous industry awards including: * Top Consultant Award with Astra Travel * Preferred Supplier Award from Avis * Preferred Supplier Award from Thompsons * Preferred Supplier Award from Top Holidays * And various Achiever awards from Astra Travel
I pride myself on customer service, this can be seen in the large number of repeat clients that I have. I have an excellent overall product knowledge, especially to destinations in The Indian Ocean Islands , Europe, the Middle East and the Far East, Australia , America having visited most of these regions. I use my personal travel experiences and pass these onto my clients and this enables me to tailor-make their journeys to ensure that they have the best time all the while offering the best value for money.
As a personal Travel Counsellor, I provide a friendly, relaxed and hassle-free way of making your travel arrangements from the comfort of your own home or office. Booking your holidays through me (Travel Counsellors) gives you the security and benefits of booking your holiday through an internationally reputable organisation, with the added bonus of always dealing with the same person (me). Additionally, because Travel Counsellors is a privately owned independent company we are not aligned to any airline or travel supplier, therefore I am free to recommend a supplier which I believe will best match your needs.
So, next time you need to make a travel booking, whether domestic or international, business or leisure travel please give me a call so that I can extend my personal service to you. Remember that everything booked through me is financially protected against supplier insolvency. We are the only company in South Africa to offer this free of charge to our customers.
To quote the inspirational words of Saint Augustine: “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page”
Let me arrange your perfect trip; the world is really your oyster.
Regards

Dankie Rina!
Baie dankie vir die wonderlike diens wat ek en my broer onlangs van jou ontvang het toe jy vir ons ‘n reis op die MSC MELODY bespreek het. Alles het so seepglad verloop – tot die rolstoel wat benodig was om vir hom op en van die boot af te bring. Ons het die perfekte kajuit op die perfekte plek gehad – en het alles mooi verstaan. Ek waardeer werklik wat jy vir ons gedoen het. Al wat ek gedoen het in al die reëlings, was net om my muisie te kliek.
Mag jy vir baie mense dwarsoor ons land nog tot groot hulp wees – ek sal graag, indien so ‘n geleentheid voordoen, weer van jou dienste gebruik maak.
Groete,
Annalé van die Strand

Rina takes a personal interest in her clients and she has helped me and my daughters meet up in various parts of the world - she goes to great lengths to help us plan our holiday and she has the ability to know exactly what we are looking for and how to go about it - she shares our excitement and nothing is too much trouble for her!

Rina and Hennie helped me plan my honeymoon some years back and it was simply amazing. The level of service I received on my vacation from the rental car to the accommodation arrangements was organized to the very last detail. We had no hassles what so ever.
Rina & Hennie also planed our trip to the Kruger National Park without any hick-ups. I would recommend their services to anyone who is planning to travel.

Rina has been very helpful with organizing holiday accommodation for me in the past.
She is friendly, efficient and gives excellent service and feed-back.

We have used Rina for two overseas trips and the service that we have received from her was 1st class. She added valuable advice to the package and all the arrangements have been faultless. If we need travel arrangements to be made in future we will definitely make use of her services again.

Eerstens wil ek jou bedank vir die hulp die afgelope 3 jaar. Dat jy altyd bereid is om te help. Ek het alreeds 48 vlugte na 6 verskillende lande onderneem. Ek kon nêrens ooit 'n beter diens kry nie - ongeag van al die toekennings wat jy ontvang het, ontbreek die beste een nog: BESTE REIS AGENT IN DIE WêRELD. Nogmaals baie dankie!

My family & I went to the Netherlands in December. Could we have wished for more than a white christmas? The wedding of my brother was wonderful, with celebrations spread over 3 days.
Thank you for your assistance last year to make this trip a good and 'safe' one. I always appreciate your professionalservice (quick, friendly and intelligent with insight in any type of travel situation).

I have been using Rina and Hennie, from Travel Counsellors, for many years and every time I use them I am amazed by the excellent service that I receive. I recently required a last minute visa for a trip overseas. They went beyond the normal service expected, providing transport to and from the airport. Without the assistance from Travel Counsellors, I would have struggled to get my visa in time!

Cocktails on the beach – believe me that this is what it is!

Ek was bevoorreg om een van die mooiste plekke te besoek - Marbella in die Costa del Sol. Marbelle is geleë in die Streek Andalucia. Die naaste lughawe is natuurlik Malaga. Marbella is ongeveer 40 min per pad vanaf die lughawe - tydens hierdie rit kan jy die wonderlike kus streek geniet - die berge - en die see. Die Costa del Sol is ongeveer 200 km lank - langs die kus. Die klimaat is lekker
Bangkok - What a shopping experience! This really is shop till you drop!!!
Markets, malls and shops were everywhere. Whilst here I stayed at the Indra Regent Hotel - a good choice 3 star for the budget traveller - easy accessible to the Bayoke sky, and Pratunum market was just across the street.
The Toek-Toeks are actually the best way to get around the busy city life and certainly somethin
What a wonderful opportunity to see the best of both worlds - Just a quick breakaway from the busy city life. South African nationals however do need a passport to enter Lesotho.
We stayed at a Guesthouse "Green Acorn" in Ficksburg - and entered Lesotho at the Ficksburg border. The small towns are very primitive - but as soon as you go into the countryside - what a sight - mountains, valle
