1. Why should I use an independent travel agent instead of booking online?
Working with an independent travel agent gives you personalised support, expert advice, and insider knowledge that online booking engines cannot offer. I compare packages, secure better value, manage logistics, and provide assistance before, during, and after your trip.
2. Which destinations do you specialise in?
I specialise in Island Holidays, African Safaris, International Cruises, and Group Travel including company retreats and incentive trips. I particularly focus on Mauritius, Maldives, Seychelles, Zanzibar, Bali, Kruger, Serengeti, Masai Mara, and leading cruise destinations.
3. Do you assist travellers based in the UK and South Africa?
Yes. I support clients across South Africa, the United Kingdom, and worldwide. All consultations, quotations, and bookings can be handled online or via call/email.
4. How many countries have you visited personally?
I have travelled to over 74 countries, giving me first-hand knowledge of destinations, hotels, and experiences that I use to curate your personalised itinerary.
5. Do you arrange tailor-made holidays?
Absolutely. All holidays are customised to your preferences, budget, travel dates, and interests. From luxury escapes to adventure travel and group trips, I create bespoke itineraries that suit your needs.
6. What types of safari holidays do you offer?
I plan safaris to Kruger National Park, Serengeti, Masai Mara, Chobe, Okavango Delta, Etosha, and other iconic African destinations. Options include luxury lodges, tented camps, guided tours, fly-in safaris, and family-friendly packages.
7. Do you book cruises for families, couples, and groups?
Yes. I arrange a full range of cruises including Mediterranean, Caribbean, Norwegian Fjords, Alaska, and river cruises. I help you choose the ideal cabin, ship, and itinerary based on your needs.
8. Do you offer group travel and company incentive trips?
Yes. I handle all logistics for group travel, corporate retreats, incentive programmes, wellness groups, and special-interest travel, including transport, accommodation, activities, and group coordination.
9. How do I request a quote or start planning my trip?
You can contact me directly via phone or email, and I will guide you through next steps including consultation, destination suggestions, and personalised package options.
10. Is there a fee for using your services?
In most cases, I earn commission directly from suppliers, meaning you get expert service at no additional cost. If a planning fee applies for complex itineraries, it will be clearly discussed upfront.
