Getting older is automatic, getting better is not.
Have a personal growth plan. Be intentional in your life.
If we want to grow we must grow with purpose.
John C. Maxwell
We gathered to celebrate a milestone 7 years, uniting friends, family and staff for a memorable day filled with joy and camaraderie. The event was a vibrant tapestry of laughter and shared stories, showcasing the strong bonds that have formed over the years. Colourful decorations and delicious food set the stage for an atmosphere of festivity, as everyone came together to celebrate our collective achievements.
Heartfelt speeches expressed gratitude for the unwavering support of our loyal followers, but mostly to our Heavenly Father for carrying us through much difficulty. The celebration not only highlighted our journey but also reinforced our commitment to creating unforgettable travel experiences for the enthusiast as well as the first-timers. It was a day that truly encapsulated the spirit of togetherness and the passion that drives our company forward.
We had lunch at the Millhouse Kitchen situated on the beautiful Lourensford Wine Estate at the foot of the Helderberg Mountains in Somerset West. The Millhouse Kitchen offers a beautiful venue, friendly staff and their menus are inspired by fresh, seasonal ingredients.The best part was that children were accommodated with jungle gyms, huge lawns where they played soccer and of course – bubblegum milkshakes.
With the challenges that life can bring, I cannot thank the good Lord Jesus enough (because of my faith in Him) for the strength He has given along this journey- that when you are faced with a mountain, He turns it into a molehill and you get to enjoy the seasons of His blessings.
No company is built on the hands of one individual, but rather a collective of same hearted people who bring their strengths to the table, who are willing to serve and work achieving the same vision.
Our vision remains to serve our clients – our true gems, by having the most memorable travel experience and bring efficiency, individuality and a personal touch to every single traveller.

Firstly, thank you to our Mighty Lord & King. Thank you to all our Precious GEMS (our clients), to my Precious Wife, Family, & Team – without you all this all would be pointless and meaningless.
Being part of this 7-year celebration gave me great joy!
“Seeing the faithfulness of our Heavenly Father & our Great King Jesus on Their leading through the struggle is amazing & humbling!”
Seeing the fruit of our labour as a team (All of whom are amazing people in our lives) and the growth over time is a beautiful thing. Thank You!
