This was our first holiday to South Africa and Kerry and Clare have made sure it will not be our last. Starting at The More Quarters Hotel in Cape Town where we were given our "bible" to dropping the car back in Port Elizabeth two weeks later the whole operation was amazing. The "bible" is your personalised itinerary, beautifully printed in a zebra print book, also a gorgeous souvenir.

The attention to detail is second to none. The staff in every property were very attentive, friendly and helpful. Kerry and Clare had recommended restaurants to visit, definitely give the Harbour House in Kalk Bay and the Pot Luck Club a-go. We also ate at La Colombe in Constantia on my birthday, what a fabulous place. Angala Hotel in the winelands was a tranquil haven and again lunch time bookings had been made for two days in different vineyards. Dinner at Angala is not too be missed. The safari at Kwandwe was the icing on the cake. What an amazing place, we saw 4 of the Big 5. Our tracker and driver were very knowledgeable and the staff in The Great River Lodge made this a fantastic end to a brilliant holiday.

None of this would have been possible without the assistance of Kerry and Clare who tailor made a prefect holiday for us and they certainly know who to make a birthday last longer than a week!!

We spent 17 amazing nights travelling along the Garden Route in South Africa, from Cape Town to a fantastic Safari lodge in the Eastern Cape.

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Here's My Card - they were very patient with all our questions and constant changes to our itinerary throughout the whole organisational process! The bespoke, top quality printed itinerary became our bible on our trip and they made sure that every detail was catered for. All the recommendations and suggestions given by the girls turned out to be nothing but outstanding. An unforgettable holiday and we will certainly be recommending Here's My Card to all our friends.

We'll definitely be in touch again next time we head to SA!

Dear Kerry and Clare, thanks so much for a superb trip. Beautifully co-ordinated to a very high standard as always. Great properties; great experiences! This is our 4th trip to South Africa organised by Here's My Card and we can't wait until our 5th trip. Thanks again for all your hard work on our behalf.

Both Birkenhead House in Hermanus & La Residence in Franschhoek were tremendous as always. Kensington Place in Cape Town has a lovely atmosphere with great staff & still is our home from home!

It was an amazing trip. So thanks again girls.

This was, without a doubt, a holiday of a lifetime! And we couldn't have done it without Here’s My Card’s advice, organisation and dedication. They had thought about absolutely everything and presented all the 'need to know' beautifully in our itinerary, which meant that all we had to do was sit back and enjoy the ride!

The girls really took the time to listen to what kind of restaurants, hotels and experiences we wanted and her recommendations were spot on. Our favourite meal was the Butchers Shop & Grill in Cape Town, which we would never have found if it wasn't for Here's My Card. We were upgraded to a suite at Kapama Karula, which was totally unexpected and proved spectacular. We saw all of the big 5 within 24 hours, as well as our informed ranger teaching us about other flaura and fauna in the park. We didn't want to leave!

So thanks again for all your efforts to make this such a memorable trip for us. We will definitely be recommending you to anyone going to South Africa.

This was our 4th trip with Here’s my Card and we are already working out when we can do trip number 5. We might even be back this year!

This time, we visited the wonderful Camps Bay, Hermanus and the Eastern Cape all highlights. But we must mention The Great Fish River Lodge at the Kwandwe Game Reserve, some of the most stunning scenery we have ever seen & we had some very special animal sightings here. We have been lucky enough to do this 4 times and each time the lodges and locations booked for us by Clare and Kerry have made the experience unique and etched forever in our memories. We ended our trip in Franschhoek and Stellenbosch the scenery here takes your breath away.

Southern Africa now holds so many special memories for us, we feel fortunate to have found such an amazing service. This trip will never be forgotten and we love recommending Here’s My Card when talking to other travellers.

There is so much to see and if you can why not do it in style, fall in love with this beautiful continent as we have, you will not be disappointed.

Having previously had Here's my Card put together great itineraries for us, we knew we would be in good hands this time round. Our brief was for 'a special island experience' and when HMC recommended North Island in the Seychelles, it took only a quick visit to North Island's website for us to press green for go. From start to finish it was an exceptional experience that put our previous island holidays (with the possible exception of Bedarra Island on the Great Barrier Reef) into a lower league.

North Island's maxim of 'anything, anywhere, anytime' proved to be no idle promise - with service standards, cuisine and overall staff friendliness being quite exceptional. Guests are literally able to design their own day on North, although their private villa accommodation offers much temptation to just chill out 'at home'.

An island paradise for sure and once again we are extremely grateful to Here's my Card for finding another gem for us, whilst placing everything in a matchless itinerary. Well done once again HMC - you are the gold standard to which your competitors should aspire.

Alastair & Katrine

Cape Town

A trip to south Africa can be ordinary or extraordinary. Thanks to the competent assistance of Clare and Kerry, of Here’s My Card, our itinerary could not have been more spectacular. We loved each place we stayed and had diverse experiences in each. Our transport from place to place was seamless thanks to attention to detail. Their familiarity with the properties made it possible to have specific rooms; in particular, the best room at Birkenhead.

The hard copy of the detailed itinerary that met us at our hotel in Johannesburg, is the most exceptional, thorough and attractive document I have ever received from any travel agent.

Beyond all else, we were able to have the most incredible time in Cape Town because restaurants were reserved, a guided tour of the botanical gardens was scheduled, and we were able to spend time with our friends who were available to eat, drink, and laugh together.

We look forward to returning. With gratitude and love.

New York

We spent 10 days in March at both Dulini Safari Lodge and Marataba Luxury Tented Camp. Both reserves were recommended by Kerry & Clare who arranged everything including all internal transfers (planes and cars) – all we had to do was get to Johannesburg.

We ran out of superlatives – the accommodation in both lodges was superb, with fabulous food and service. We shall never forget sitting in the plunge pool with eleven elephants – including a baby days old – eating leaves and grass 50 yards away. Or the leopard loping down the road. Or three baby lions joining in the feast provided by a kudu killed the night before by the lioness. Or standing very quietly – we did four days on walking safaris in Marataba – watching two slightly edgy rhinos less than 100 yards away. Or the hippos coming out of the water at dusk. Or the giraffe bending to drink. Sunrises and sunsets. The fantastic Waterberg mountains. Every day we said – there can’t be anything else – but there always was. An experience of a lifetime.

Val and I would like to thank ‘Here’s my Card’ for making this year’s visit to South Africa such a success. Your friendly, knowledgeable and professional service provided us with excellent competitively priced accommodation along with many useful tips re restaurants, vineyards, shopping and a reliable taxi service. Your attention to detail was really appreciated.

We will be back next year and will be recommending you to all our friends thinking of taking advantage of the strong pound.

Before we leave Londolozi (we are very sad to leave...), we would love to thank you for the wonderful trip. Londolozi was terrific, they upgraded us from Tree Camp to Granite Suite and we loved everything about this place. It’s beautiful, comfortable and food & service is great. But of course the best are the game drives... even if I had this experience already....but still it was something special and unforgettable for both of us!

We are seriously thinking about going next winter to Etosha Pan and Okavango Delta...I am sure you know where to send us, right? So thanks again for the wonderful organisation, every place was beautiful and special. We enjoyed our trip very much and your organisation was perfect. Every single place was special, we loved our room and food at Birkenhead House, we appreciated the lovely staff of Sea Five Hotel, we enjoyed walking around the gardens of Babylonstoren and of course we will never forget our Safari at Londolozi. Just a perfect vacation in every way!

Spello, Italy

This was our first trip to South Africa and we sought the help of Here's my Card in planning an itinerary to include Cape Town, the Garden Route and a Game Reserve. We gave the girls an outline of the type of accommodation we required, what we would like to see and a ball-park budget and we were absolutely delighted with her itinerary.

The accommodation throughout the holiday was superb and the suggested activities were spot-on. Here's my Card not only organised perfect accommodation, car hire and activities schedule, but also provided comprehensive information and contact details to cover all eventualities throughout our visit, which enabled us to relax and thoroughly enjoy our adventure. We have travelled extensively throughout the world and have regularly used bespoke tailor-made agencies and can say, without any hesitation, that the Here's my Card team stand out as the best holiday planners we have come across.

Thank you so much Kerry & Clare! It was truly a wonderful holiday and we really enjoyed meeting you too.

Jeff and I wanted to plan a holiday in Mauritius but found it daunting to choose the best place, and realized we needed the help of experts. Kerry and Clare gave us a detailed shortlist according to our brief, and then chose one of them for us because we were still undecided! Their choice was spot-on. 

The hotel was luxurious with a choice of beaches, pools and restaurants. We really enjoyed the selection of beaches and pools, the accommodation was great, food and wine selection excellent and a lovely Spa. All the travel arrangements went smoothly. The itinerary was detailed with in depth information on Mauritius, the hotel and the available sight-seeing trips. We had a wonderful, relaxed holiday. Thanks Kerry and Clare, making our Mauritian holiday a dream come true

Cape Town

Kerry & Clare created another mind blowing trip for us. Botswana is a stunning country and we knew the camps were going to be 5*, but the 3 camps we visited were above and beyond what we were expecting. The trip was seamless and absolute joy which some breath taking and "once in a lifetime" sights. A good mixture of land & water based camps allowed us to experience more. 

We transferred to Camps Bay after 9 nights in Botswana to a penthouse apartment with stunning views. We'd been to another villa in May which was stunning, and this villa matched up to our now high standards in camps bay villas! What a wonderful position to be in...! There was lots of space and the sunsets were stunning. A great base for Cape Town. 

Another wonderful, personal holiday from Here's My Card. Until the next time ladies.....

We had such an incredible time!! Truly, the trip of a lifetime. We are both bummed to be back to reality and miss being surrounded by elephants and going on game drives and hiking Table Mountain!

I can't tell you how amazing Botswana was. Really, no words can do it justice. And Sandibe in particular was like a dream. Nothing compares! We were so so sad to leave! We got incredibly lucky and saw so many amazing animals, and we already miss game drives and stops for tea and just generally seeing elephants everywhere.

You guys really went above and beyond with everything and we've been so well taken care of. Thank you so much again for everything. We will most definitely call on you guys to plan our return trip!! I wish you guys planned trips all over the world cause we would use you for everything!

Thank you, Clare and Kerry, for crafting such a memorable trip to South Africa for Seth and me. You seamlessly integrated our preferences into each aspect of our trip, creating a personalized and luxurious experience. No detail of planning was overlooked which made our vacation worry- and stress-free. Each day brought new and exciting activities: cultural - and adventure-filled excursions, dining that rivals our hometown, and safaris with expert, personable guides.

Seth and I truly appreciate your patience, advice, and dedication to creating a customized experience that we will always remember. We look forward to working with you the next time we travel to South Africa! Thanks again!

Melita and I had the most wonderful holiday, both in the Cape and at Marataba Lodge, and we are very grateful to you for making it all happen. Dealing with ‘Here’s My Card’ was a pleasure from start to finish, and, particularly because we gave you little time to prepare an itinerary, I appreciate your quick response in discerning and delivering exactly what we were seeking.

Both hotels were stunning in different ways, but they shared outstanding, courteous, and attentive staff; luxurious, comfortable, and understated rooms; and absolutely perfect locations. Both exceeded our expectations. When it came to Marataba: "The staff is extraordinary, the facilities outstanding, the views spectacular, and the game-watching unparalleled. My three days were among the best I have ever enjoyed, and I have been blessed with many great days.", and, substituting "city-watching" for "game-watching", the same applies to the Cape Cadogan. Both hotels welcomed us in such a way that we immediately felt like each place was "ours".

I have already recommended you to two of my closest friends who are separately planning trips to SA!

After planning our dream honeymoon last year in South Africa, this year we had to return to Africa with Here's My Card for another taste of the 5-star adventure that Clare and Kerry work so hard to create. This time we would be heading to back to South Africa to return to our favourite spots in Cape Town and the wine country and journeying to Namibia for a taste of the wild.

Clare and Kerry once again outdid themselves and gave us a truly exceptional and unique experience across both countries. Every step of the way we had spectacular accommodations. In Namibia, Clare and Kerry always went the extra mile to insure we were treated exceptionally and given access to explore the rugged and beautiful landscapes independently with the most skilled guides from each lodge. We were also given fabulous extras like private dinners and a sunrise balloon ride over the desert.

We cannot recommend the white glove treatment of Clare and Kerry to enough of our friends and family. In fact, we've been so thrilled we are bringing our families back with us for our next trip we are already planning with Here's My Card for our third African visit!

We have returned to Texas, and still enjoying the memories of South Africa. We have been on many safaris, so this was our chance to see another side of your beautiful country. I contacted you late, as it was a last minute trip. You did, what I thought was, impossible! You were able to book every hotel and restaurant I had requested. I know that wasn't an easy fete, as being the Easter Holiday. 

I appreciate your friendliness, promptness, and professionalism. Thank you again for the service you provided for us to be accompanied from our airline gate and taken promptly through immigration. There was a car to take us to a paradise of a hotel in Johannesburg. Champagne was waiting in the room, with you providing an itinerary, (or should I say book!) of our next 10 days. Such detail....The hotel you recommended in Cape Town was so gracious. It was a beautiful place to spend Easter, and thank you for arranging the upgraded room. Totally unexpected, but appreciated. 

Our family was so taken with the wine country. The winery was the most glorious place I have ever stayed. I still think of it daily. You totally tuned into our personalities and what we would enjoy. We had a fabulous trip & everything you planned was perfect so thank you.

We would just like to say thank you for organising our stay in South Africa. Both sets of accommodation were superb and the food venues you organised were excellent, especially the one in Kalk Bay. The transportation you organised was also first class.

Also, the individualised itinerary of our stay is something we will treasure.

Well what can I say…we had yet another wonderful holiday to Cape Town with Here’s My Card and didn’t want to leave.

All the hotels, restaurants, activity suggestions that you supplied were spot on and couldn’t fault a thing. Each place was very different and unique and gave a real feel for the local area, surroundings. Your final itinerary booklet for each of us was like our trip bible!

The trip was absolutely fabulous and we will be returning to Cape Town again for sure!! Thanks again and take care.
