More Than Just Bookings: What Travel Agents Do That AI Can’t

Testimonials

“Holly has been assisting us with travel preparation and itineraries for over a decade now. Over the years, she has planned trips with immense care and utmost dedication: from an intricate and personalised honeymoon itinerary and experience with multi-city flights, hotels, and car rentals many years ago to our annual multi-city flights within Europe from South Africa and she is always on standby to help with our many (many) last minute international flights and is extremely responsive, always. During the pandemic, Holly’s care, commitment, attention to detail and keeping up to date with the latest information and global travel protocols and procedures allowed us to continue travelling safely and with ease and peace of mind. Holly basically makes travel dreams come true at unbeatable prices, goes beyond the call of duty and with a personalised touch, always. She is service orientated, people centred, and nothing is too big an ask or request. I highly recommend Holly and Check-Out Travel and express my heartfelt gratitude for her work over the many years that we have utilised her services.”

– Kirsten Harris

“I have been dealing with Holly and her team for the last 14 years. 90% of my travel requirements is Africa based which brings it’s own challenges on many levels. Holly and Check Out Travel’s dedication and personal service to me, especially when I found myself in a tight spot in Africa, cannot be measured. I cannot recommend them enough for anyone’s travel needs!”

– Morne Schonfeldt

“Check out travel is number one! I have done many bookings with Holly and Sean. They are extremely efficient, assist with all questions, have great suggestions and have always been dynamic in any travel related crisis (cancelled flights/ layovers etc ). I couldn’t recommend them more!”

– Suzanne Smith

“I booked a flight with Holy, and it was the best decision I ever made. It was exceptional. I traveled from Faro to Johannesburg via Madrid and Doha. My first flight was delayed, I informed Holy, who updated Qatar airlines, and she informed me of where to go once I landed. My hotel, taxi and meal voucher was ready for me in Madrid, which was great as I arrived late in the evening in Madrid. I had another issue with my boarding pass as I had a one way ticket, and Holy immediately issued me a ticket to my next destination whilst I waited in line.

She was exceptional and I would definitely recommend her services as she is extremely competent and efficient and most of my issues happened after hours and she was there like a personal assistant on the other side. For anyone traveling I definitely recommend using a travel agency, Holy works with Check Out Travel, as when you’re on your own and tired a helping hand on the other side is priceless.”

“Highly recommend. We used Checkouttravel to book our honeymoon to Thailand! My word was it memorable! Holly was very helpful and interactive leading up to the trip. We were very satisfied with the service provided and we didn’t feel like “just another client”. We felt that Holly definitely helped us stay in, or close enough to ;p our budget by providing us with a few accommodation options to choose from. We 100% recommend Checkout travel for your next big adventure!

Wonderful South Africa. In October my family and I spent a fortnight in South Africa. Checkout Travel booked lodges in Kruger Na-tional, Sabi Sands and Timbavati for us, all being per-fect. We had sensational game drives, two each day. At last we had wonderful days in and around Cape Town. Holly Pereira of Checkout Travel organized everything thoroughly in detail and took care of us at all times. It could not have been better.

‘Chuffed.’ I live in Zimbabwe and have hooked up with Tammy, a year now, on a recommendation … Although I basically could book my International Flights locally or online.. it is and has been an absolute pleasure to hand that full responsibility into Her very capable and professional hands, with no concerns, pre booking seats, delayed flights etc.Her service has been exceptional!
Thanks Tammy!

Top experience. Top follow-up. Holly was of the greatest help during our 10-day trip in South Africa. Communication was smooth and very reactive. Also, she was very flexible despite we asked for some late changes in our program. This company can definitely be recommended for any trip to SA.

Holiday of a lifetime! I would very much like to express my sincere gratitude for all Tammy’s help, patience and prompt responses during the planning of our trip to South Africa. It is not often we come across such friendly and efficient service.

My husband and I have now returned to England from our holiday of a lifetime. We had the most fantastic and very special time at all the four destinations we went to.

I hope Tammy’s manager knows what a true star she is. Hopefully they are already aware of this 😊. I can fully recommend Tammy to anyone reading this review. Yet again – thank you so much.
