Darnelle de Jager

Carla was so great and helpful during such a stressful travel time and kept us up to date throughout the entire process. Thanks to her help and her willingness to go above and beyond, we were able to enjoy a restful and amazing honeymoon in Zanzibar and are so grateful to Carla for her efforts. Thank you so much, we 100% recommend this travel agent again and again.

Carla and Lourens are amazing people and very professional! We've booked our holiday to Zanzibar and our honeymoon to Mauritius through them and I have literally nothing to complain about! Quick and efficient service and they answer all your questions! The two hotels they've recommended were superb without a doubt! Thanks again for our amazing experiences so far!

Jenna de Jager

Carla was just absolutely FANTASTIC! She is very well informed and could answer any question and query we had! She took our personality and chose the best options available that would suit us and meet all the needs we dreamed of! She gets the best prices and was such a pleasure to work with! She always replied to her emails and correspondence between her and us was great! She was there for us from the beginning of thinking of an island holiday until the time we were back from the holiday! Honestly the best service ever!!!!!! You will not go wrong with using this lovely lady!

Thanks to Lourens & Carla - We had the absolute best time. There is not a single thing we could complain about. The rooms were gorgeous and spacious, the bars were helpful and stocked, the kids club was amazing with our son, the pool and sea were incredible, the food was divine, the spa was very professional and reasonably priced, and the views were breath-taking. The private transfer was a great idea and worked on point. Thanks again for arranging a holiday of a lifetime. We are now saving for the next one.

Carla de Jongh and Lourens De Jongh thank you for arranging the honeymoon which couples could only dream of. You understood exactly what we were looking for and Veranda Paul et Virginie exceeded our expectations! Your service from inception of our idyllic holiday right through to the end of our return to SA was impeccable! We can't wait to go back again!

Yolandi Cloete

At first, we were not even sure were to start looking for our honeymoon destination, but with the help of Carla and I'm sure not the easiest customers to work with she managed to help us find the best destination ever. We didn’t regret one moment and enjoyed every single minute of our trip. From start to finish was easy, from checking in to getting home the process went smoothly and effortless. We will be in contact soon to start planning our 1-year anniversary trip.
