What our travelers say about us

We start each day with the joy of making our adventurers' dreams come true. It's always fun when our travellers share their experiences with us! From the unforgettable experiences that exceed expectations to the soggy dumps, it helps us strive for perfection in all our trips.

What a refined balance between adventure and relaxation! Each lodge had its own charm, from infinity pools to intimate dinners under the stars. The organisation by Charlie’s Travels was flawless, and the personal touches, such as a private guide and a tailor-made itinerary, made it extra special.

Charlie’s Travels offered us a perfectly curated trip where comfort and adventure came together. From champagne at sunset in the Masai Mara to relaxing on a secluded beach in Watamu – every moment felt special and unique. The accommodations were stylish and exclusive, and we felt pampered everywhere we went. This is the way to truly discover Africa.

We’ve just returned from our trip to Kenya, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we were picked up in a private transfer to staying in exclusive lodges with phenomenal views (especially Sasaab Lodge) – everything was perfect. The service was impeccable, the food sublime, and the personal attention really made it special. The safaris were a dream; we saw the Big Five with a guide who shared so much knowledge about the wildlife.

My wife and I have been motorbike riders for years, but this trip was something entirely different. Riding through the savannah as herds of zebras crossed our path and ending the day with a sunset at the foot of Kilimanjaro—it was simply magical. Charlie’s Travels was fantastic and always ready to assist. The routes were well thought out and challenging in an enjoyable way. Perfect for motorbike riders looking for something special.

I definitely recommend traveling with Charlie’s Travels! Everything is well organized, but also the positive impact they have on the locals and country – that’s what makes them so outstanding if you ask me.

What a fantastic honeymoon we had with Charlie’s Travels! In just 19 days, we visited three countries: South Africa, Swaziland, and Mozambique. We spent a few nights sleeping under the stars in our personal camper and a few nights in luxury accommodations. Everything was wonderfully organized!

Great young and ambitious travel company with boots on the ground in Africa. We travelled with them through South Africa and Namibia. They made great experiences/activities possible that we would never have discovered on our own otherwise. For the next trip to Africa, I will definitely contact them again.

We booked a self-drive tour through Charlie’s Travels that started in Windhoek, Namibia, and ended in Maun, Botswana. The great thing about Charlie’s Travels was that they listened to our needs and exceeded our expectations. For sure, our next self-drive tour in Africa will be through Charlie’s Travels again

Charlie’s Travels helped us plan the trip of a lifetime. During our sabbatical, we toured Botswana and Namibia, and everything was great. From unique experiences to a very short line of communication. Thank you very much!

Our self-drive trip through Namibia and Botswana was a great experience. We enjoyed the professional communication from Charlie’s Travels before, during and after our trip. They are clearly an experienced travel agent and know the market well.

Our motorbike journey through Kenya with Charlie’s Travels was a dream come true. The sense of freedom, the stunning landscapes, and the mix of tarmac roads and challenging off-road trails made this an experience we’ll never forget. The Charlie’s Travels team ensured everything was perfectly arranged, from reliable motorbikes to charming accommodations along the way. This was adventure at its finest, and I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat!

Together with Charlie’s Travels and my fellow board members, I discovered South Africa, Swaziland and Mozambique in 2.5 weeks. Sleeping in tents on the beach or in the wilderness, hiking through Swaziland, Ocean Safari, Game drives, this trip had it all. I recommend everyone to let Charlie’s Travels help you find the perfect trip!

We traveled with our family—2 parents and 4 students—to South Africa and Mozambique. Our transportation was with 2 4WDs with rooftop tents. The route was truly off the beaten track, challenging to drive, and we enjoyed every moment. If you’re looking for an adventurous trip, we definitely recommend Charlie!
