Sandra was amazing during the whole of our honeymoon experience. We must have had 2 or 3 online calls to find our Taylor made trip. There was no pressure and Sandra gave us loads of advice and had so much knowledge about all kinds of places. We eventually picked South Africa, safari and Mauritius. Sandra sorted the whole package out, flights, transfers and accommodation. The trip couldn’t have gone any smoother and we had the best time. The Safari was fantastic and would go back on one tomorrow. The relaxing in Mauritius after was beautiful and chilled. I’d definitely use Sandra again to book trips. Thank you so much.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Sandra did an excellent job at finding our honeymoon destination, she listened to our needs and worked closely with us to bring together the most memorable trip of a lifetime to South Africa and Mauritius. The travel app she uses is great, everything we needed was saved there and she was able to check us in to our flight making it completely stress free! Thank you so much!

We found Sandra at our local wedding fair, and we couldn't have asked for someone better to plan our honeymoon for us! We knew we didn't want to stay in one location for our holiday, but the idea of booking multiple flights, accommodation and transfers was particularly daunting. We had a video call with Sandra to discuss potential locations, and she came up with three incredible holiday itineraries. It was so hard to pick, and the one we chose was actually a bit of a 'wild card' that Sandra had recommended that we hadn't previously considered. There was the option to change parts of the holiday if we wanted to, but Sandra had picked so well that everything looked amazing.

We chose South Africa, road tripping from Cape Town down the Garden Route, with a beautiful safari at the end. Sandra recommended ideas, excursions and dining options which were all amazing. Everything ran perfectly; our accommodation was stunning, transfers were seamless, and we felt well prepared for our trip knowing that everything was taken care of. Sandra also checked in our flights, booked our seats and added everything we could need to the 'trip' app so that our documents were in one place.

Our holiday was the trip of a lifetime, and wouldn't have been possible without Sandra's expertise and planning. We highly recommend her, and wouldn't consider using anyone else in the future! Thank you so much for everything - we will be back as soon as we can for another amazing itinerary!

Great honeymoon experience booking with Sandra. She was great at getting an idea for what we want and then putting it all together. You can let her know what your preferences are and she will make sure she gives some options to decide on. We did a multi destination in Italy which would have been difficult to organise but Sandra took care of it all and made life so much easier. Would highly recommend!

Sandra was excellent from start to finish, I felt she really understood the needs for our honeymoon and provided a great mix of luxury and adventure! We had lots of communication to make sure we had everything ready before we went and it really helped having Sandra do all the hard work (checking in for flights, chasing information). We will be using her services again in the future.

We are so glad we came to Sandra to plan and book our honeymoon. The process started with a video call so that Sandra could understand what we were looking for, and then she put together three fantastic options for us to choose from. It was an incredibly difficult decision as they all sounded amazing! In the end we chose Thailand and couldn't have loved it more. Transfers were seamless and our accommodation was fantastic in every location we visited. The experiences Sandra recommended and booked for us were exactly the kind of 'once in a lifetime' experiences we wanted for our honeymoon. It was also great having all our documents and itinerary info in one place in the app and knowing we could contact Sandra easily while we were away was very reassuring.
We will absolutely use Sandra's services again in the future.

Sandra organised our dream honeymoon for August 2023.
From the consultation call to the day we returned home from our honeymoon, Sandra's customer service and attention to detail was second to none. All the flights, hotels and transfer companies selected for our trip were of a high quality and professional and friendly with excellent English speaking staff. We had a slight issue with communication regarding one transfer while we were away and sent Sandra a message and she sorted it within a matter of minutes. All travel information, flight/transfer details and important documents were uploaded to the travel app in advance by Sandra and it was very convenient to have everything saved in one place.
We cannot thank you enough for making the first couple of weeks of married life absolute bliss. We would definitely recommend Sandra for all of your holiday needs.
Thanks again, Amy & Dan

We met Sandra at a wedding fare last year and contacted her to help arrange and book our honeymoon. After an initial introductory call, Sandra took a few days to do her research after asking us about everything we wanted. She then walked us through what she had found and we found the research very thorough and helpful.
Sandra was very professional, friendly and flexible.
Thank you so much.
