My name is Karin Livingstone, and I live in the beautiful seaside village of Gordons Bay, Cape Town.
With over 22 years of experience in the industry, I provide an industry-leading service booking corporate travel and base myself between South Africa and the UK.
Imagine a service built on trust, where you receive unrivalled personal service, expert advice, and complete financial protection. A service that saves you time and is hassle-free, where your travel professional understands you and your preferences, ensuring you get the most for your money. In times of crisis, such as airline strikes or adverse weather, you have the peace of mind that I am there for you 24/7 - this is the service I provide!
Working with Travel Counsellors (an award-winning global organisation) as an independent franchisor allows me to deliver the best that both small and multinational businesses can offer – a service where I know my clients personally yet have access to enormous buying power with trusted suppliers.
If you want the best the industry has to offer, do not hesitate to contact me.
In the words of ‘Red’ Adair, "If you think it’s expensive to hire a professional, wait till you employ an amateur!"

Exceptional service from Karin, who handled the booking of my 3 return flights from Cape Town to Europe (Dubai-Lisbon-Faro (Portugal) remarkably well. Following this and despite the distance, I made the firm decision to no longer handle my flight bookings myself via my apps in the future, as I usually did but to systematically entrust them immediately to Karin. That says it all.
Thank you 1,000 X Karin. Best regards, Jean-Paul Fontaine.
