It s the personal touch that makes the difference
It s the personal touch that makes the difference This was our first trip to South Africa and we wanted to experience a wide variety of what it has to offfer made extra complicated by having a toddler in tow JD and Francois made an effort to get to know us our tastes and what we liked doing before putting together a suggested itinerary which still had enough options for us to choose from so it felt like we were in control of our trip We had a fantastic two and a half week trip and visited and stayed in some fantastic places much of that is down to the Travel Cafe we will definitely be back

I have always dreamed of going to
I have always dreamed of going to Namibia but found planning the trip quite overwhelming and because I could only take one week off from my busy schedule for the trip I wanted to make sure I get it right It s not that easy to just redo it all Francois and JD at The Travel Cafe worked very closely with my husband and me to find out what we wanted to see and experience on our trip and then designed a holiday that checked all of our boxes - and many more There is no way we would have been able to find some of the things that turned out to be the biggest highlights of our trip Unless we spent days or weeks hunched over our computers researching the trip but both of us are too busy for that I was - almost literally - breathless when I saw our luxury camp in the middle of the Namibian desert under endless starry skies and waking up with the sight of an Oryx just metres away This was a true bucketlist trip for me thank you so much Fran ois and JD for making that dream come true

Excellent in all aspects
Excellent in all aspects I booked three activities with The Travel Cafe to try and get the most out of my week which I certainly did Francois responded to all of my queries quickly and knowledgeably which made booking easy The Peninsula Tour and Hop on Bus were both excellent things to do and great value for money and though my kayaking had to be cancelled due to safety concerns I received a refund in person the same day and still had a great day climbing Table Mountain - and great night thanks to the range of bar and restaurant recommendations Francois included with my information I will definitely be returning to Cape Town and will definitely come to The Travel Cafe first for activities and information
