Incredible tour of South Africa and Mauritius \u2013 part 1<\/h2>\n

Even though we\u2019ve still managed to make a few lovely trips over the past two crazy years between the lifting of lockdowns and travel restrictions, I \u2013 Managing Director Anita, haven\u2019t been any further than Dubai. Not on inspection, not with a group, nor privately. This summer, the time finally came again... We could and we were allowed to travel once more. And to be honest, there is nothing I love more than being able to go on a long-haul trip again. With this time a tour to South Africa and Mauritius!<\/p>\n

Travel companions and destination choice<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This time too, we have combined various inspections with a private holiday. Because we are often able to make wonderful and sometimes distant trips, our two sons still love to come along. Not only because of the great trips, but also because they are both showing an increasing interest in our business. Our eldest son now also works within the company, admittedly as a part-time job alongside his studies, but still. He has bolstered the Sales Support department and does all sorts of \u201codd jobs\u201d to take the pressure off the account and sales managers. For example, he produces analyses for our clients, sets up UBI (the online booking tool of our business travel department) and in the future you might also come across him on the phone or during a live conversation.<\/p>\n

This year the trip was going to be to Mauritius. However, we have added South Africa to our trip (how annoying \ud83d\ude09), because we currently have a few great assignments from clients. We chose Mauritius because, first and foremost, it is a paradise, but also to further explore it there for potential upcoming incentive trips, whether or not in combination with an African country.<\/p>\n

Ultimate comfort in KLM Business Class<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Of course, we are very privileged in this industry, so once again we flew business class with KLM<\/a>. KLM is our biggest supplier, so it is good to take a fresh look at their products every now and then. I can only conclude that KLM has got its act together. Spending a journey of about 12 hours in Business Class is an absolute treat. You really lack nothing, and the flight attendants complete the picture. What top-level service and hospitality they radiate time and time again. Incidentally, we also took a look at Economy and the other classes, and you want for nothing there either.<\/p>\n

Without feeling tired, we got out because of this. In addition, there is no time difference with the Netherlands in the summer, which of course also makes it less tiring. Now we could really begin our fantastic trip!<\/p>\n

Stay in Cape Town<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We stayed for three days in the fantastic pod boutique hotel<\/a> in Camps Bay (just on the other side of Table Mountain). Last time we stayed at the V&A Waterfront. That's why our preference this time went to the other side. Besides, in Camps Bay we also had some targets to inspect. So two birds with one stone!<\/p>\n

Alongside a lovely private itinerary, we had also been given a nice inspection schedule by the office. Busy, but manageable! We had two full days to tick everything off, after which travelling on to our beloved wine region was planned\u2026 Franschhoek, near Stellenbosch.<\/p>\n

Curious about the rest of the travel itinerary? In the subsequent parts<\/a> I will tell you more about my fantastic tour and share tips and inspiration for your incentive trip or event in these destinations!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
