Praise from recent international guests ✈️🇿🇦

We were very happy with the service we received from Travel Café, throughout the process of arranging our recent holiday in South Africa.  The itinerary was well-judged and they were quick to take on board our feedback to ensure that everything was exactly as we wanted. The house in Cape Town was great and a very good base from which to explore.

We particularly appreciated the responsiveness of Charlotte and her team whenever we had any queries and also liked the way that while there were suggestions and recommendations as to restaurants and activities, we were also free to go our own way.

Travel Café curated our holiday beautifully and I would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone considering a holiday in South Africa.

From Marcus S.

I give only 5 stars since I cannot add more. The best travel agency ever. Always quickly supporting you for every request. The staff is great and passionate. Charlotte organised our honeymoon around South Africa (Cape Town area, Kruger, Johannesburg, Panorama Route) also providing a customised mobile app with the whole travel plan including all the details and contacts. It was very user-friendly. Other than that, they offer real time support via whatsapp, also this was really appreciated.

The accomodations and tour they organised were fantastic!

Ziggy and Vuyani, our guides, were kind, professional and available to meet all our needs.

Compared to other agencies, they offer a far better price/quality ratio! Highly suggested

From Lucas P.

We are so pleased that we found the Travel Cafe to organise our trip. Charlotte planned it all exactly to our needs and we cannot recommend The Travel Cafe highly enough. A special thanks to JD and Francois for hosting us at Starry Starry Night. We have had a fantastic holiday ticking off Kate’s bucket list and will be in touch again for our next trip to Africa!

From Sarah.

We had an amazing time in South Africa. The itinerary was well planned and the different accommodation well chosen. We really enjoyed our first game drive in an amazing reserve. It was our best experience so far! We could easily follow what was planned with an app, and Charlotte was always available in case we needed any additional information. The children really enjoyed this trip and are asking to come back!

From Mickael.
