On our Travel Tales blog, we love sharing your incredible adventures, and we’ve talked about why we pour our hearts into every booking. But have you ever wondered what actually happens before you step onto that plane? What does it take to transform a whispered wish – “I want to see elephants!” or “We need a truly romantic escape!” – into a seamless, unforgettable journey? As agents at Go…

Have you ever been on a road trip with your best friend? I mean a proper road trip, not just a quick weekend away. Over the past 6 months I’ve been on the most incredible adventure with my best friend. Even though I felt like there’s nothing I don’t know about him, this road trip definitely ensured that we know everything there is to know about each other. When we think about a road trip…

Travelling abroad with a mental illness

Linda Auer — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 16:09:43 +0000

Why is this not a topic that’s discussed more often? Mental health has definitely become a bigger topic than it used to be, however we still don’t really talk about it as often as we do about other disabilities. Do you want to know what question gets me every time? “How can you feel depressed when you’re on holiday?” People, you do know that depression isn’t a choice, right? You don’t just…

Linda Auer — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 16:09:40 +0000

Let’s take a moment to thank the person who thought of placing TV’s on the back of every aeroplane seat. Even if you aren’t all pro technology for your kids…

Finally a chill day! No rushing to pack up our camp site, no driving on dirt roads for hours (although this is very fun, it’s nice to take a break). And it was BOILING hot! Linda, Olivia and I spent most of our time in the shade of Wayne and Kristin’s wrap around awning. Man, that thing is lekker. I am very jealous.

Western Cape Road-trip | Day 3 | Die Hel to Knysna

Uwe Auer — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:48:25 +0000

It was an early start in the morning. We were up at 6am and by 7am our camp site was packed up, the car just about ready, Olivia fed. At 7.15 everyone was lined up ready to go, I just needed to load some firewood that we had left over from last night into the back of the bakkie. And then for some strange reason, the braai bak with our leftover meat from the braai slid off the dashboard and…
