Best holiday ever

This is our 9th time to South Africa with Here’s My Card and it was probably our best holiday ever. From the vineyards in Franschhoek, to all the adventures that Plettenberg Bay can offer and finally to the wonders of Cape Town and the beaches at Camps Bay. We loved it all…….and will be back!

Wonderful Mauritius Trip

Kerry did a fantastic job of helping us organise a wonderful trip to beautiful Mauritius and was patient and accommodating when we had to revise hotels due to covid delays looking into various options and coming up with lovely choices. We had a wonderful holiday in 2 different parts of the island.

Artfully crafted

Our family finally managed to take this long awaited trip to South Africa post the covid pandemic, and we had the best time at Kwandwe on Safari, rounded off with some activity packed days in and around Cape Town and a blissfully chilled weekend at Babylonstoren. This was all artfully crafted by the lovely team at Here’s My Card travel who knew exactly what would work for us - we can’t thank them enough. It made for a truly memorable first, but not last!, visit to South Africa.

Ticked all the boxes

Kerry recommended Grootbos to us and having organised so many holidays for us she ticked all the boxes with this one … Really superb food, interesting activities for the whole family and a breath-taking setting. Kerry you really nailed this one for us, thanks a million.

Unforgettable trip

My husband, two daughters (ages 4 and 6) and I spent an amazing 4 nights at Ecca Lodge on the Kwandwe game reserve in March earlier this year. Clare was an amazing help in suggesting a great family friendly lodge and arranging all the details. The staff at Ecca were fantastic with the kids! Our ranger, Courtney, and tracker, Vuyani, were gentle and patient with our girls, keeping them engaged on the game drives and taking them on a special picnic outing with one of the other younger guests. The lodge was also really great for us parents, getting a lot of time to relax and enjoy the stunning surroundings and animal life.

This is not the first time we have asked Clare for help arranging an unforgettable trip, and it definitely won’t be the last!

Fabulous - again!

After having to cancel our holiday to England Kerry was the first person we called to organise a break away to Cape Town and Babylonstoren. As ever her efficiency, speed and communication was impeccable. All details like transfers, activities for the boys and recommendations of restaurants was thought of so we just had to rock up and enjoy! Huge thank you as ever Kerry.

Seamless & professional

Omicron descended and, once again, Kerry pulled a rabbit out the hat and managed to organise the most fabulous holiday for us! Her knowledge and personal relationship with every venue allowed a seamless, professional and truly wonderful holiday.

Amazing trip

We made it home and it was an absolutely amazing holiday - thank you! Definitely worth the effort to get there!  We just want to say a huge thank you to Kerry and Here’s My Card Travel for organising our Christmas holiday to Mauritius. It was the most amazing trip, made all the more special as it was our first holiday in nearly two years and was well worth all the extra effort to make it there. 

The Four Seasons was fantastic - beautiful setting, beautiful food and the best service we have experienced in a hotel. We stayed in a four bedroom residence villa which was so spacious with a lovely pool. Highlights included Christmas Eve on a private catamaran, eating barbecued lobster, and Christmas Day swimming in the Indian Ocean at the resort’s private island beach.

 We are thinking about our next holiday with Kerry and Here’s My Card already!

Seamless trip

I am not sure how I will book travel going forward without Clare. We had a seamless trip (which is saying something when travelling with 3 kids!) and it was made so much easier by the attention to detail that Clare had considered.

Although I am sure that much of our experience was down to Kirkman’s Camp itself, I couldn’t help but get the impression that we were being looked after over and above the usual, due to Clare’s relationships and reputation. We even received a document with everything we needed to know, including how to navigate the grey areas of tipping!

Thank you for everything Clare and your team. I cannot wait to book our next trip through you.

Seamless and perfectly suited

Planning a holiday in a pandemic,  with borders closed and limited travel seemed impossible. Kerry made it all happen for us. From the transfer plans, to accommodation,  to food preferences - everything was seamless and perfectly suited to our family. What a fantastic holiday - we will be back!

Exceptional Service

In this pandemic, with ever changing restrictions being put in place, Kerry was just brilliant in organising our family holiday to Plettenberg Bay. Every detail for us and the kids was thought through and it meant we were seamlessly able to just bowl up and relax. As for many years now we continue to use Here’s My Card Travel because of the exceptional service that Kerry and Clare offer.

8th Amazing Trip

This is now the 8th time we have travelled with Here’s My Card & we had a fantastic time. Our time on safari at Kwandwe was the highlight,  but we loved staying in Evie’s house and undoubtedly fell in love again with Plettenberg Bay there is so much to do around there, Knysna and Tsitsikamma.

Yet another perfect trip

Here’s My Card organised yet another (our 4th) perfect holiday to a dream location. Santorini in Mozambique was exquisite in so many ways and no picture can possibly convey the beauty of the place. The staff were just gorgeous  - attentive but discrete and desperate to meet our every need. The rooms and decoration throughout the hotel was really well thought out with lovely touches throughout but it was the views that really wowed us - miles of sandy beach with no one else in sight. We took the boat out to see dugong and although we didn’t spot any, even my teenage children had their breath taken away by the seascapes that they saw.  Mozambique is a long way to go from London but I truly believe we will never see beauty like that again!

Fantastic family itinerary

Kerry organised a fantastic holiday for my family in Cape Town. The accommodation she organised catered superbly for our requirements and we could not have been happier with her choices. She provided a fantastic itinerary of activities and restaurants that suited the needs of our two young daughters, fitted around a NYE wedding in Franschhoek and helped us to navigate the busy Christmas period. We can’t wait to come back.

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!

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!

Exceeded our expectations

Our family adventure to Africa exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful to Kerry and Clare for creating an itinerary with just the right balance of nature and thrill-seeking activities and foodie experiences. What a terrific introduction to Zimbabwe, Zambia, and South Africa.

Thank you for everything…

Absolutely amazing

Our holiday in South Africa, was absolutely amazing and so well and carefully organised by Kerry & Clare.  So much had to be taken into consideration, including age groups ranging from 8 years to 70 years.  We went to three different areas – Cape Town, Stellenbosch and the mountains so experiencing three different areas and in all three venues we had excellent accommodation and service and there was always so much to see and do but with the luxury of wonderful facilities when we relaxed.

We can’t wait to return to this lovely country.  Thank you Kerry & Clare.

Faultless

Once again Here’s My Card outdid themselves organising another faultless holiday. Having been to South Africa three times before we couldn’t imagine there’d be much more to see but we couldn’t have been more wrong. Cape Town is always good fun so we were more than ready to hit the sun beds and pool in Stellenbosch. The villa at Oldenburg was absolutely stunning with more than enough room for us all. We were beautifully looked after and spent much of the day simply taking in the spectacular scenery. We had just enough organised that we could totally relax whilst saying we’d explored the area too. Fully recharged we went on to Bushmanskloof which was incredible. Without any of the “man-eating” game roaming the surrounding area, we were able to trek to waterfalls, swim in canyons, canoe round lakes whilst being  surrounded by ostrich, zebra and springbok. The food was exquisite, often grown on-site and our tracker was brilliant, always knowing when to suggest that long-awaited sundowner! 

Thank you so much Kerry and Clare for such a magical time, we couldn’t have been happier with the holiday you organised for us.

Stunning

I hardly know where to begin! The entire trip was stunning. Every day presented a wonderful experience for the four of us to share, and the beauty of the landscapes and people was breathtaking. Thanks for helping create memories we will all treasure forever.
