⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Exceptional South Africa Experience – Thoughtfully Designed, Beautifully Executed This South Africa journey through Hoedspruit, Franschhoek and Cape Town was exceptional in every sense. From the intelligent design of the itinerary to the flawless execution on the ground, everything felt seamless and intentional. Every detail was clearly well thought through, creating an experience that felt both effortless and deeply enriching. This was already my second Salty trip, and once again it exceeded expectations. I would 200% recommend it without hesitation. The accommodations throughout the trip were outstanding. Each property was luxurious, beautifully designed, and perfectly selected for its setting. The quality was consistent across destinations, with stunning views, excellent amenities, and multiple high-quality food options at every stop. What truly stood out, however, was the warmth and professionalism of the staff—genuinely kind, attentive, and welcoming, making every stay feel special and relaxed. The activities were equally impressive. They were extremely well planned, thoughtfully paced, and delivered through excellent local providers, which added authenticity and depth to the experience. From unforgettable safari moments in Hoedspruit to wine experiences in Franschhoek and cultural highlights in Cape Town, everything flowed naturally and felt purposeful rather than rushed. Traveling with this group was a joy in itself. The travelers were all incredibly friendly, and there was an immediate and genuine connection among the group of like-minded women. The atmosphere was easy, supportive, and fun, creating a sense of togetherness that enhanced every part of the journey. Sez and Nige were exceptional hosts throughout the trip. They were always approachable, friendly, and fully present, and whenever anything needed to be addressed, they were proactive, solution-oriented, and reassuring. Beyond their professionalism, they are genuinely nice, fun, and easy people to spend time with, which made the experience feel personal and warm rather than transactional. Overall, this trip was wholesome, inspiring, and flawlessly delivered. It struck the perfect balance between luxury, adventure, and meaningful human connection. I cannot wait to travel with Sez and Nige again, and I already know it won’t be my last Salty trip. Highly and wholeheartedly recommended.

We just returned from our group trip through Namibia, and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation I had. From start to finish, everything was absolutely flawless. The accommodations were some of the most breathtaking and unique places I’ve ever stayed—beautiful camps and lodges, stunning views, and incredible comfort at every stop. The activities were equally unforgettable. Every day offered something new and exciting, from exhilarating excursions to peaceful, immersive nature experiences. And the wildlife sightings… truly next-level. We saw animals up close in a way I never imagined possible—an absolute highlight of the entire trip. A huge part of what made this journey so special were our guides, Sarah and Nigel. Their knowledge, passion, warmth, and leadership made us feel safe, inspired, and incredibly well taken care of. They went above and beyond in every way and created the perfect atmosphere for an amazing group experience. They even accommodated our vegan diet!! I would rate this trip an easy 10 out of 10. It was magical, deeply memorable, and one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Highly, highly recommended!

This entire trip, start to finish, will forever be the best trip I have ever been on and one that is impossible to top, all thanks to Sarah and Nigel! The accommodations were beyond 5-star and the most luxurious boutique hotels with excellent service, views, food/bev, etc. When I tell my friends and family about the trip, they do not believe me! Words or pictures can't do the trip justice for just how incredible it was. This trip included everything from hiking, wineries, beaches, safari's, etc., and didn't fall short in any aspect. I am already begging Sarah to plan another as it was worth every penny, and then some! I couldn't be more grateful for this trip and every detail that went along with it! Thank you both so much!!

This Namibia trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience — the kind of adventure you dream about and then spend the rest of your life remembering. Every detail was so thoughtfully planned, coordinated, and executed that there is genuinely nothing we would have changed. Each stop, each camp/lodge, and each experience was unique in its own way, creating the perfect blend of adventure, breathtaking landscapes, incredible wildlife, and the most delicious food. What made it even more special were our hosts & the guests they attracted to join us. They curated a journey that felt effortless, seamless, and deeply intentional. Their warmth, organization, and passion for this destination turned an already incredible itinerary into something unforgettable. They went above and beyond in every moment, and we are forever grateful. And on top of all of that — we got engaged in Namibia!!! They made that moment beyond special for us, and it’s something we will hold close to our hearts forever. This was a bucket-list trip in every sense, and we can’t imagine having experienced it with anyone else. We will absolutely be doing another trip with them. Truly unforgettable.

10/10 – An Unforgettable, Next-Level Adventure! Hands down, the best trip I’ve ever taken. I honestly struggle to describe just how special these two made the journey for our whole group. I’d never traveled with a group before, and this experience completely transformed how I think about it. We joined the Salty Luxe South Africa trip in October 2025, and it became the standout travel experience of my life. There was a part of the trip that I was extra excited about and they made sure to make that experience an absolute dream come true for me. They go out of their way to ensure every special moment for someone on the trip is considered from birthdays to bucket list moments like mine. They are beyond thoughtful and truly want every single attendee to enjoy the trip from start to finish and go out of their way to make sure that happens. Sarah and Nigel took care of every ounce of planning. Every detail was thoughtfully crafted, not a single thing was overlooked. The itinerary felt iconic, the accommodations were a dream and every dining experience was next level. They perfectly plan everything from activities, to transportation, to food accommodations, the entire trip felt effortless and impeccably organized. We joked nonstop that we’ll never be able to go anywhere again without Salty Luxe! If you’re thinking about joining one of their trips, don’t second-guess it. Just book it. It’s one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had and has absolutely redefined luxury travel for me. Already counting the days until the next one!!!!
