"As a travel journalist who’s stayed at hundreds of hotels and worked with countless guides, I can confidently say Ker & Downey® Africa stands out. From handpicking exceptional properties to being available before 8am on a Saturday, their attention to detail and high-touch service made my South African journey seamless. I wouldn’t plan another trip to Africa without them."

Everything ran seamlessly, and the team stayed in touch with us throughout. Words can’t describe how incredible the experience was."
