Magical

Kerry and Clare were the true heroes of our holiday! Two incredible captains who steered the ship from one destination to the next without a single hitch in sight.

Their friendly and approachable way of curating our perfect holiday was nothing short of magical. 

Every moment, we felt not only taken care of but that our experience was elevated beyond our wildest dreams.

From our dreamy city escape in Cape Town, to touring the vineyards of Franschhoek, to embarking on a safari adventure at Tanda Tula, where we came face to face with a white rhino, every part of our journey was unforgettable. Their incredible knowledge of their home country gave us the privilege of meeting people and visiting places that exceeded our expectations. We could not recommend "Here’s My Card" enough to anyone wanting to experience the true magic of South Africa!

Girls Safari Weekend

A breathtaking safari weekend at Simbavati River lodge, just what the soul needed! Kerry arranged every detail of the trip with careful consideration and professional flare, allowing us to delight in a carefree & luxurious girls weekend away. Unforgettable game viewing, attentive staff and tasteful lodge decor - looking forward to booking another trip soon.

Your knowledge, our delight

Clare, you came highly recommended, yet you surpassed expectation and Africa gave us many special memories.  Nothing was too much trouble despite only booking maybe 8 days ahead of travelling.  Our itinerary include the Cape coast, Franschhoek, the Falls and Botswana’s Delta proving to be the highlight.  A huge thank you for ensuring a world class experience.

Incredible

We just wanted to say a quick thank you for organising the most incredible, gorgeous and humbling trip. 

It was our first time visiting South Africa, and worked with you to curate the itinerary for our time here which included a friends wedding.

From the incredible Safari at Simbavati to the relaxing evening at Macaron hotel in Franschhoek, the itinerary was perfect and everywhere we stayed was just beautiful. 

We loved every minute and you really have shown us some of the hidden beauties of South Africa. We will definitely be coming back and you can count on having us as future clients.

Perfect

We feel it is very appropriate for us to write to you to express our gratitude and thanks for the smoothness and expertise of our recent holiday. Every detail worked perfectly. Not only was the wedding exceptional but the Kwandwe safari met and exceeded our expectations! The lodge itself was great, as were the staff, we even had a couple of four legged visitors very close to the patio …. sincere thanks again.

Thrilled

We were all so thrilled with every moment of our holiday.  Serondella was the proverbial icing on the cake!  Just amazing. The best lodge any of us have visited.  The staff were fantastic, the suites just the best and we saw some wonderful animals. We also loved the countryside. Beautiful grasses and trees. Oh and the mountains in the distance. Thank you so so much.  I stuck my neck out suggesting we book with you, as our friends had used another agent but I was so pleased I did!!  With our love and many thanks

Yet Another Memorable Trip

We were back for our 5th trip to South Africa and we thoroughly enjoyed our stays in Paternoster, Constantia and Franschhoek. Paternoster was new for us and we were stunned by the beautiful deserted beaches and our stay at The Strandloper. In Constantia and Franschhoek we experienced new wineries, gardens and restaurants all in wonderful surroundings, and all so typical of what we absolutely love about South Africa. Thank you again Clare for organising our trip  – it is always a pleasure to work with you in the planning phase, and all that attention to detail gave us another memorable experience.

Expectations Exceeded

We just want to say a massive thank you for organising our trip to Gondwana Game Reserve. It far exceeded our expectations and we were blown away by the organisation and professionalism of the staff there. We will be recommending your company to our friends and family and will definitely be coming back to organise our next trip!

Can’t wait to come back

We had the most fantastic time in Cape Town and the Winelands. Having never been to South Africa and with only a week to spend, planning and preparation was vital. Clare managed to create a fantastic itinerary allowing us to experience both Cape Town and the wonderful Winelands without ever feeling stressed or pressed for time. Communication prior and during the holiday was personal and efficient making us feel safe and looked after. We can’t wait to start planning our next trip and the first thing we will do is reach out to Clare and Here’s My Card.

Another epic adventure

I wanted to do something special with my brother when he visited in February. I have wanted to go to Zimbabwe for years - so this provided the perfect excuse. In true HMC style I received a slick itinerary that was great value for money and awesome in experience. Ursula’s Homestead at Victoria Falls is a gorgeous home from home - luxurious simplicity. A warm team that catered to our every need and altered their menu to suit our preferences. As a surprise from our parents Kerry and Clare organised a sunset cruise on the Zambezi where we saw incredible wildlife, landscape and shared many G+Ts with great people. The team at Ursula’s organised guides to take us on a private walking tour of Victoria Falls where we saw (and got soaked by) nature at its finest. I highly recommend the high adrenaline option of swimming in Angels or Devils Pool that hangs over the Falls followed by a boat ride and breakfast at Livingstone Island. It was a true lifetime experience only made possible by Here’s My Card - my go to girls for all Southern African experiences. Until the next trip - Thank you again xxx

Fantastic

Many thanks Kerry, for everything, and we look forward to our next adventure! Overall, the trip, arrangements, venues, tours, etc. were all outstanding.  We had a fantastic time and cannot thank you enough for all your efforts, recommendations and support.  We feel fortunate that we will have another opportunity to work together later this year and return to South Africa!

Superb

We chose Kerry of Heres My Card Travel to plan our trip to South Africa.  After some fits and starts thanks to Covid, we finally made the trip this February.  Nothing could have been better; the itinerary was superb covering Cape Town, Hermanus, Franschhoek, a week of safari in two camps and finally a weekend at Victoria Falls.  No detail was left out from fabulous dinners to tee times and wonderful guides.  It was the trip of a lifetime and Kerry was in constant communication. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable

Kerry organised a wonderful holiday in South Africa for me and my daughter. I was impressed with her approach from the get go. After several zoom meetings discussing the options and interests, Kerry pulled together a bespoke trip that was unforgettable. We took in Cape Town, Winelands and Kruger National Park.

All of our bookings ran seamlessly our days were full of fabulous activities (Harley Davidson tours, shopping, wine tastings) we ate in beautiful restaurants, visited stunning venues, and stayed in small boutique hotels that had a very high standard of customer service.  Finishing off our journey with a safari at Tinga. Back at home now some three weeks later – I am still enjoying it in my head. Her insider knowledge was a gamechanger!

Great organisation

We left Cape Town with a heavy heart! We had a truly wonderful holiday, so thank you so much for the suggestions and the great organisation. Perfect weather, delicious food and some wonderful experiences. We absolutely loved La Cle and Lekkerwater in particular and wouldn’t have found them without you.

Wonderful 8th holiday

Thank you so much Clare and Here's my Card on our 8th trip !! 

With Clare's help we were able to enjoy two new properties (which were amazing) even after all our visits, and it was great to stay again at our favourite place La Providence (which we wouldn't have found without you).

Another wonderful holiday & happy memories.

Treasure forever

We travelled as an extended family of 10. From the moment we landed, everything was taken care of, everything was beautiful and the accommodations you recommended were impeccable.

The accommodations were all beautiful, people loved the wine tasting on bike, and of course Kwandwe is just magical! We were all teary when we were leaving!

It was the most wonderful family vacation and we’ll all treasure it forever! Thank you so much for everything you did - we loved it!

Safari of Dreams

We have not long returned from the most magical trip to South Africa for our honeymoon. The safari really was the stuff of dreams! From the moment we contacted Here’s My Card, Clare went out of her way to ensure we got all we wanted from our trip - even with an ever changing budget and schedule! Nothing was ever too much trouble and the trip itself was absolutely incredible! thank you, thank you, thank you

Favourite part of the world

We travelled back to SA in Feb this year, our 7th trip using Here's My Card. We still love the attention to detail and recommendations from Clare. Being in contact with Clare before, during and after the trip makes it all the more special and so much more than just your average holiday. Each trip has been an adventure. We regularly recommend Here's My Card to anyone wishing to travel to (what is now) our favourite part of the world, and we will continue to do so as well as using them to book our own trips.

Our #1 trip ever

I can hardly find the words to explain our AMAZING Honeymoon experience in South Africa with Here's My Card Travel. As avid international travelers, our expectations were high ... and we had never worked with an agent, and after working with Here's My Card, we will never again book on our own -- and wish HMC Travel was global and we could work with them on every trip.

They are experts in the space and African Landscape, and are top-notch when it comes to curating bespoke, unique one-of-a-kind African getaways. The specifics and itinerary, down to every last detail, was well thought out and articulate. Clare and her team worked hand-in-hand with us to customize a trip that was perfectly designed and curated to our needs and interests.

They coordinated absolutely everything, from drivers to chic boutique hotels, and arranged dinner reservations for every "must-dine" restaurant in each city we visited. Making our way through South Africa, eating, drinking and enjoying the amazing scenery was nothing short of phenomenal. From city to Safari, wine country to the beach, we were in bliss every step of the way. 4 locations, and 5 hotels made for the trip of a lifetime.

The trip was special, beautiful, thought-provoking, nature-rich, moving, profound, and wildly grounding experience for my husband and I, and will forever be rooted in our hearts and minds as the #1 trip, Thanks to Clare and everyone at Here's My Card Travel. I could not have dreamt up or wished for a better Honeymoon, nor planned anything to this extent on my own. Thank you a hundred times over for helping to make such a special chapter in our newlywed lives! Adore you Here's My Card!

7th time's a charm

We had a wonderful time in The Mother City & this is our 7th family trip now with Here’s My Card Travel…& without question the best time that we have had in Cape Town! I even started looking at apartments in the Waterfront!!!

The highlights included the Cape Point Tour, lunches at Constantia Glen, the Roundhouse & Grand Café, as well as drinks at the impressive Silo - all arranged seamlessly by Here’s My Card!

We also enjoyed some downtime on the beach in Camps Bay and the beaches at Clifton and we loved our Penthouse at Sea Five – amazing ocean & mountain views…

 Many thanks for everything!
