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.

Amazing Memories

Clare organised the holiday of a lifetime – I still think about it now.  The trip exceeded our expectations and we really hope to be back one day. We truly believe that the holiday would not have been as special had we not booked it through Clare.  Thanks for helping us create amazing memories.

Terrific Planning

We are safe and sound back at home in London after a truly wonderful trip.  We feel so fortunate to be able to go there, particularly in the depths of winter in the Northern hemisphere.  We are becoming quite seasoned travellers in Southern Africa now and have had so many incredible experiences.

Bushman’s Kloof was gorgeous and the room was perfect.  It was a classic, tame venue and a lovely place to start a holiday.  We were really happy there and were able to wind down and relax. Tengile River Lodge is absolutely stunning in every way. The designer thought of every detail and the architecture is exquisite.  It is very much designed around the idea of blending the indoors and the outdoors and we could not have been more in love with the entire place. We saw all the game and never tired of the beauty of those wide-open spaces.  Some of the animal interactions were really amazing and we are always surprised that we experience something different that we haven’t seen before.  Tengile is absolutely breath-taking. All in all, an incredible and wonderful experience as always and your help in suggesting and planning the trip were terrific. Thank you again.

Great weekend escape

We cannot thank Here’s My Card more for organising another great weekend escape for us in Franschhoek.  La Providence is a beautiful guest house located at the foot of the Franschhoek Mountains with incredible views of the valley and vineyards.  The team there were amazing and Kerry organised a beautiful room for us so we could truly relax after a crazy January back home in London.  The highlight is the beautiful pool which was an ideal place for us to spend the mornings before heading out to enjoy the incredible wine farms and restaurants that Franschhoek have to offer.  Kerry was amazing helping us plan our weekend, including beauty treatments and restaurant suggestions that took all the hard work out of our hands.  We can’t wait to go back!

Effortless

Our trip to South Africa was truly a trip of a lifetime and an incredible introduction to Africa. We can't wait to make it back and see what else the beautiful continent has to offer. Thank you for curating the perfect blend of seeing Cape Town, the winelands, and picking the perfect Safari to suit our needs. Each of our three stays provided the perfect mix of intimacy and an authentic cultural experience. We are so grateful for the work you put in to make this big vacation effortless for us and for being there for anything little thing that came up during our trip. We will cherish this special trip for the rest of our lives, thank you!

Dream vacation come true

We had never used a travel company to book any of our vacations so, I was a little hesitant when a client of mine gave the recommendation for Here’s My Card. We could not be any happier with the outcome!

Our trip to South Africa was nothing short of a life changing dream come true experience. Working with Kerry and Here’s My Card was so seamless and enjoyable. All 3 accommodations that where booked where stunning and breathtaking in every way.

I would recommend Here’s My Card to anyone looking to travel and see the beauty of South Africa.

And that is the absolute truth. Our lives are forever changed after visiting this beautiful country and that is all thanks to Kerry and Here’s My Card.

Expectations surpassed

This is our second trip to South Africa, booking with Clare and Here’s my Card Travel – expectations were once again surpassed!  Through Clare’s vast amount of knowledge of the country and her understanding of what we liked to see from on our first trip, we were provided with a fantastically detailed itinerary for our trip along the Garden Route.  The itinerary included maps and lots of ideas of things to see and do during our travels from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town. .

We stayed in small boutique hotels which were all very personal and friendly, food amazing and each one differed in scenery – either being part of a lovely country estate,  on the edge of a cliff overlooking the whales passing by, or in the lovely seaside resort of Camps Bay. 

Nothing was too much trouble for Clare when we were booking the trip and even during the trip when  Clare touched base with us to ensure things were running smoothly.

South Africa is a very special place to visit – it is so incredibly varied in landscape and there is so much to see and do  - I have already highly recommended Here’s my Card Travel  to a number of our friends back home and I hope we will return to see more of this wonderful country again one day.

Perfection

How to begin to put into words the trip of a lifetime we had in Namibia and South Africa organised for us by Here's My Card Travel! Clare and Kerry worked with us to tailor our trip to fit our time frame and the kind of experience we wanted, and the result was perfection! They made us feel so well looked after from start to finish, providing useful information to help us prepare and to use during our trip, as well as a step by step itinerary and travel guide filled with details about the places we were staying, activities we could do in each location, and travel timings. 

In Namibia we stayed at 4 locations over a week long trip, each unique and marvellous in its own way, and, as we wanted to self-drive around Namibia, Clare and Kerry helped us with all the details of care hire, directions and ensuring we were well prepared. The way they curated our 6 days in Namibia ensured we saw a range of landscapes and had a variety of experiences, from adventurous to relaxing, and ensured we did not have to spend too much time driving - which we had requested. They made sure the accommodation was organised so that we had delicious breakfast and dinner at each place we stayed, and each hotel/lodge was top-notch, special and offered different delights to the one before! Their organisation of the trip provided us with an experience that was perfectly balanced and gave us access to one-of-a-kind experiences we could never have discovered on our own. 

In South Africa they connected us with the cornucopia of attractions Cape Town has to offer and over our 4 night stay we experienced some of the best restaurants, frolicked in the winelands and swam with penguins in the magical boulders beach. The final part of our trip - ordered to perfection by Clare and Kerry - took us to Madikwe where we enjoyed a sumptuous deluxe safari experience that blew our minds wide open with extraordinary wildlife and exceeded our expectations in terms of pampering care and luxurious accommodation. 

Without a doubt, there is no chance we could have created such an impeccable, superb trip on our own and the care, competency and charm of Here's My Card Travel throughout the whole experience made it even more wonderful. I cannot recommend them highly enough! 

Thank you Clare and Kerry for the best holiday we have ever experienced. We will definitely be using Here's My Card Travel again in the future.

Best of everything

Clare chose the best of everything. All 3 properties were great with the best rooms in these properties, the restaurant choices were excellent with the best tables, and the detailed itinerary had everything we needed. When we return, will definitely use Clare & Here’s My Card’s expertise again.

Wonderful Memories

It was the most amazing experience and a vacation full of wonderful memories. Everything went smoothly and all that you did made the entire trip effortless (on our part) and an absolute joy. Through our conversations and emails, you captured exactly what we were looking for in a once in a lifetime trip.  Your attention to detail is unmatched!  Thank you for everything. I look forward to planning our next African adventure with 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.

We will be back

A huge thank you to Clare for her help in arranging our first trip to South Africa. The itinerary worked so well though out and worked brilliantly for us.

The safari was amazing, followed by a relaxing stay at Plett. We loved the golf that was booked for us and it was such a privilege to play The Links course at Fancourt. Babylonstoren was a perfect end to our holiday. Totally relaxing and the Fynbos cottage was lovely. 

Thanks again. It is a country that we would love to revisit, so I’m sure that we will be back in touch.

Invaluable

I am writing to thank you for organising a wonderful trip to SA for us. Your help with this booking was invaluable.

We thought the Welgelegen was such a find - an oasis, great location and lovely touches - it was so hot we even used the plunge pool!

Table mountain was beyond our expectations - amazing iconic views.

We had a lovely stay in Franschhoek with beautiful food at La Petite Colombe. We enjoyed a fantastic visit to Grande Provence where we went to stroke one of the Cheetahs.

The view from the Southern Right Suite at Moselberg on Grotto Beach was amazing and we took lots of photos of the whales from the coastal path.

Meeting up with Jack at the Amakhala Game Reserve was the highlight of the holiday and we are so grateful to you Clare for giving Jack the contact details for his 3 month vet internship there. He has had incredible experiences and loved it! We also visited the fabulous Addo Elephant Park and took the most wonderful photos.

Thanks again for all your help with everything from the hotels, restaurants, car hire, flights, as well as the activities. We are so grateful.

Until next time!

Just wonderful

I just wanted to let you know we’re sadly back from South Africa, having had an amazing time.

Londolozi was incredible and we had great fun with all our friends there.  Staff were all brilliant, as they were in all the places we stayed.

All the hotels you kindly arranged were fantastic. We absolutely loved Birkenhead House (our favourite of all the places we stayed) and will definitely return there one day.  

I just want to say a very big thank you to you for all your help in making our holiday just wonderful.

We will definitely return to South Africa.  It’s the most beautiful country, stunning scenery and lovely, friendly people. I do need to diet now though as we’ve eaten so much !!!

We will totally recommend Here’s my card travel and will be in touch again when we return.

Flying colours

My husband and I worked with Clare from Here’s My Card for our very first African Safari two years ago. She arranged the most incredible itinerary in Kenya. Every single detail was coordinated from start to finish. The trip was an unforgettable trip of a lifetime! 

It was so memorable and such and incredible experience, we wanted Here's My Card to coordinate our next safari as well - this time to Botswana. Their knowledge, experience and ability to tailor exactly to specific customer’s needs was exceptional. With so many logistics and details, we couldn’t have done it alone and Clare made our trip seamless.

We recommend Here’s My Card with flying colours and would suggest anyone looking for the trip of a lifetime to contact them!

Amazing

This was our first trip to South Africa and as it was my 50th birthday we wanted something special.  Here’s My Card had been recommended to us by friends and they didn’t disappoint.  Everything we wanted to do had been planned for us, making our stay stress-free and so enjoyable.  Even when we said we wanted to do a bungee jump they knew who was best to use and arranged it for us, nothing was too much trouble.

The night in the tree house on my birthday was amazing, something we will never forget.  We would like to thank Clare and Here’s my card so much for all their help and we would definitely recommend them and plan another holiday with them.

Loved our trip

Andy and I loved the trip you organised for us to Zimbabwe and Botswana. All the safari lodges you arranged were so welcoming and even the wildlife cooperated! 

The lodges were exceptional. The photographic boat trip on the Chobe river was brilliant and all the rangers and staff made us feel so welcome and did everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

The trip was great and thank you so much for organising it. It is one we will remember for a long time.

Trip number 6

We have travelled 6 times to Southern Africa with Here's My Card and we think that our constant return business speaks volumes of the service and experience with have received. Clare & Kerry understand our likes and favourite places and always reply to any queries immediately and planning our trips with them is such a massive part of the whole holiday.

As we have said before Clare and Kerry have made us fall in love with this part of the world and our trip this time was no exception. The highlights for us were the lovely La Providence in Franschhoek and finishing our trip in the Kalahari, such a magical place.

The relationship we have built with Here's My Card means that our we are always thinking of our next trip when we return from our last. 

Another big thumbs up!

Excellent service

We wanted to do something last minute but still wanted the luxury feel of a well-planned trip. Having used Here’s My Card in the past, I knew they would put an amazing trip together for us.

As always, we weren’t disappointed. We received excellent service & a genuine hospitality in each fabulous hotel & location we stayed at. A truly wonderful experience in properties & venues, that Kerry & Clare know & trust & it was a brilliant time from start to finish.

We will be back soon!

Experience of a lifetime

Our 10th wedding anniversary celebrations in South Africa could not have been more perfect. Kerry took care of planning every detail, right from accommodations to restaurant reservations and internal travel. Kicking off the trip in Franschhoek to a romantic bike ride through the vineyards, lavish 4 course meals and the impeccable hospitality of Ellen and Gary at La Providence was a wonderful introduction to our time in South Africa. We didn’t have to worry about anything and our days were seamlessly organized and tailored to suit our taste and preferences.

I would definitely recommend Here’s My Card to friends and family visiting South Africa.

Thank you for creating the experience of a lifetime.
