Holiday to South Africa & Seychelles
Brooke Amsler, 10th April 2026We had the vacation of a lifetime thanks to Stuart and the Mahlatini team. From our initial inquiry about travelling to Africa through to the final details of the trip, the entire planning process was seamless and stress-free. Mahlatini did an excellent job tailoring the experience to match both our priorities and our budget, while providing expert guidance every step of the way. Their attention to detail made all the difference. Because everything from transfers to the smallest logistics was so thoughtfully arranged, we were able to truly relax and enjoy every moment. We felt completely taken care of throughout the journey.
Accommodation Visited
The Last Word Franschhoek
“We loved the small, homey feel of the Last Word. We also appreciated that the hotel was right in town so it was easy to get to all the activities that we had planned. The rooms were also spacious and clean. The pool and common areas were also comfortable to hang out in between activities.”
Walkers Plains Camp
“We absolutely loved Walkers Plains Camp and was the highlight of our trip. The guides and the staff were truly incredible. The food was excellent as well. The game drives provided each day were all unique and gave us an extraordinary first safari experience. It is one of those places we kept saying we want to come back to one day.”
Constance Ephelia Seychelles
“Constance Ephelia was a beautiful resort and we were happy to be upgraded to the hill top villa. The only issue we found were some bugs in the villa and the staff were not as attentive as the other spots, but we really enjoyed our time here. There was a lot to do on the property, despite being rained on most of the time we were there. The food was great and lots of variety as well.”
Four Seasons Desroches Island
“Our ocean villa was incredibility comfortable and beautiful. The staff here was also so accommodating with all the activities we could do from feeding turtles to a cocktail class to group snorkeling. We loved that we had bikes that we could use throughout our stay and bike all around the island. The food here was incredible and we had different options to choose from each night. A very memorable stay here and would recommend to any couples or honeymooners!”
Staff Review
“Stuart was incredible to work with. From our very first call, I knew we wanted to book with Mahlatini. He struck the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine enthusiasm, which made us excited about the trip from the start and confident in trusting the process, especially since it was our first time not planning a trip ourselves.
He was thoughtful in designing an itinerary that truly fit our needs and remained flexible when we requested adjustments. We really appreciated his expertise, recommendations, and the helpful suggestions he shared along the way. Stuart was also consistently responsive, which made the entire experience smooth and reassuring.”
