Tanya

Don't tell her father but it seems a strict Portuguese upbringing did nothing to temper Tanya's enthusiasm for life, adventure and fun. With her childhood camping holidays in Africa still fresh in her memory banks, Tanya has thrown herself into the world of travel - big time.

"I love to share my passion with others," she smiles, "and I love travel!" Blessed with an unbelievably positive attitude, she'll say something like "ask yourself what you can do today that will make a positive impact on someone's day" - and actually mean it.

Social, friendly (though she admits to occasionally swearing in Portuguese) and generous, Tanya has a fearsome but well-deserved reputation on the netball court, a sport she equates to life: it's a team effort, you need to get rid of any negativity, and play to win!

Travel Experience

All over South Africa, Mozambique, Namibia. London, Madeira, Portugal and Malaysia too.

 

  Thank you for your logistical expertise!. We had a wonderful vacation and were thrilled with our incredible African experience. You were really listening - which ensured that all of us were able to enjoy our individual vacation dreams.

Jared got to take his microflight over Victoria Falls, husband Joe got to catch exotic African fish on the Zambezi river and Okavango Delta and I even got to ride an amazing elephant! Waterberry Lodge and Pom Pom Camp exceeded expectations. All transfers and charter flights went off flawlessly.

We will gladly recommend you and Go2Africa to others. - Nancy, Joe & Jared 

 

 

 We had a really fantastic holiday. Everything went very smoothly and we loved every part of our stay. So first of all, thank you very much for your help in planning the trip and securing the arrangements.

We will surely recommend your services to any friends visiting South Africa. Overall the experience was really excellent and the holiday memorable in all respects. - Erwan Berthelot  

 

 

 Wanted to take the time to let you know that our trip to Africa could not have been more perfect. It was truly a trip of a lifetime and we are grateful to Go2Africa for making sure that it went off without any problems.

All of the transfers went off smoothly without us having to wait so much as a minute. Our accommodations and food were lovely and the people that we met were wonderful. It did help that we had done our homework and their were no disappointments or unfortunate surprises. Thank you for all your efforts. - Pat Brady 

 

 

 you have been amazing! I appreciate all your help! There is no way I could have planned this trip on such short notice without your help! You were so attentive to my emails, and patient with my numerous questions...you are a sweetheart! you have planned the ultimate trip for me and i am so looking forward to it!

You are by far the best tour operator, agent I have ever dealt with!!! I will definitely refer you to all of my friends wishing to come to africa! I am soooo excited, cant wait!!!!!!! i just finished packing and its 3am! - Shetal Patel 

 

 

 I had to drop you a post-vacation message to tell you how absolutely fabulously all the plans for our time in Cape Town worked out, and to send you a million thanks for all the legwork and organizing you did - everything was ready for us, the drivers were all on time, the service was professional and friendly. And believe me, if I do come back, I'll be in touch with YOU! Many thanks, again, for a wonderful time in Cape Town. Sincerely!!! - Terry McWhinney 

 

 

 We had an absolutely wonderful holiday thank you so much for all your help. The accommodation was all excellent and your recommended areas and combination was just perfect! Yes, we did the canopy tour - what an experience thanks for recommending it. Once we had gained confidence in the 'tackle' we really enjoyed it but it did take the first few slides to learn to relax.

We are planning on doing a Safari in March (or thereabouts) 2010 so well be in touch for your ideas and suggestions a little nearer the time. Once again, many thanks for all your assistance and advice and I hope the coming year is good to you. - Sue and Ali  

 

 

 Nick and I had a fantastic honeymoon in Africa and we were not disappointed in the level of accommodation and service. Mixing the trip between a stay in Kruger and the private Sabi Sands reserve was an excellent idea which meant we were able to see all the big 5 and much more!

Also I wanted to thank you very much for assisting me with changing all the dates of our trip. I know we changed it a few times and you were so helpful. It was wonderful knowing all I had to worry about was the wedding because I knew my honeymoon to Africa was being taken care of.

All in all we were extremely happy with our trip and would recommend Go2Africa and yourself to others. - Kim Tarleton 

 

 

 You have provided great service in preparing for this trip. I am sure we will be taking trips in the future throughout South Africa and other countries, so we will keep you in mind once we do. - Greg Strozier 

 

 

 I wanted to take a moment and thank you for all of your assistance and effort in making our family trip to SA a truly memorable adventure. All of our flights, bookings, pickups and trip details were flawless. Your recommendations on accommodations were exceptional. The Marina apt was wonderful, the Manor house in Stellenbosch quaint, convenient and welcoming, Villa Afrikans was fantastic and in both places the owners were involved, interesting and engaging. We did a lot of fun stuff, met and had a number of 'never did before' experiences.

MalaMala lived up to its exceptional reputation for game viewing and hospitality and remarkably the owners were there while we were and very engaging. Our ranger was terrific and my daughter greatly enjoyed his company over our 4 days and in fact I suspect they will stay in touch.

We were very glad it worked out to finish the trip with the Safari, as it was definitely the highlight. Even the weather was perfect everyday except last Monday when we were leaving Cape Town. My daughter said it the best holiday we ever had and as we have been fortunate to have done some pretty fantastic traveling, that is high praise! - Wilkinson Family 

 

 

 I had a wonderful time in Africa and I want to thank you for planning an amazing holiday. Everything worked out perfectly. The three safari camps and Azura were amazing. I'm still sorting through pictures and will put some on my Facebook page once I do so you can see them. Thanks again. - Matt Reznik 

 

 

 We loved so much South Africa: a country with happy and polite people and amazing places to visit. Everything worked properly: transfers, excursions and hotel stays.

We didn't have any problem and enjoyed all the 15 days. South Africa left a great impression on our eyes, mind, heart and soul. Our days in Cape Town were wonderful. We ate in nice places, had all the transfers on time and enjoyed every minute of our stay there.

It will be a pleasure to let people know about your service and the quality of Go2Africa service ... the next time we go to Africa, we will surely try to make the arrangements with you. - José LĂșcio and family 

 

 

 Just wanted to let you know that our trip was awesome. Everything went as planned. All of the airflights, pick-ups and transfers were on time.The accommodations were gorgeous and food and service were excellent.

Susshi & Chuma was our favorite of the Sanctuary properties. Lari & Andre of Baines Camp were so down to earth and friendly. The Elephant experience and Lion Walk I would highly recommend to future clients. Chobe was very scenic ... the service was over the top they couldn't do enough for us.. Africa is in our soul.

Tanya thank you so much for making my 50th Birthday the best ever. - Terri Brusio

 We truly had a remarkable time in South Africa. We absolutely loved it. Thank you for all your help. Everything went very smoothly and everyone was so nice. Chitwa Chitwa was also amazing. We loved the entire experience and had so much fun! We met some great people and our accommodations were lovely. The guides were great and it was a beautiful lodge. We were able to see the big 5 and many more.

Overall, our trip definitely exceeded our expectations and if we have any friends who wish to travel to South Africa, we will definitely send them your way. - Jessica & Justin 

 

 

 We recently returned from a fabulous trip to South Africa with our three grown daughters. Every detail of this trip was planned not once, but twice since our initial trip to visit our daughter who was studying at Stellenbosch was cancelled due to the volcano in Iceland.

Tanya, at Go2 Africa was an absolute delight to work with and she managed to recreate the trip of a lifetime for our family. On our trip home we marveled at how a trip that seemed destined not to happen, happened in such a big way with every detail planned perfectly by Tanya at Go2Africa. Our family is forever grateful - Peggy, Dennis, Laura, Clare and Mae Quilty 

 

 

 What an amazing time we had. On behalf of myself, Sean, Mike and Kim we truly want to thank you for making our safari experience one to remember. It was just an awesome, awesome time and we will definitely be back some day!!! We would highly recommend Go2Africa and certainly for anyone looking to plan a trip there and I will definitely pass along your contact details. Thank you again and all the best. - Ashley

 That was the start of a wonderful experience for us. We did hear back from Tanya the next day, with a suggestion that perhaps we would like to stay at Boulders Beach in Simons Town. She was able to find a room there for 8 nights, breakfast included, and airfares that suited us well, all for an amazing price (and only a month before Christmas!). Not only did she do all the leg work and within 2 days have us all set for a great vacation, she also followed up with information about the area, links to maps, to the Boulders Beach site, other facts, and travel tips.

She also checked on our airline tickets ahead of time to make sure that everything was as planned, sent us a couple of reminder emails before our trip, sent us a note while we were on the trip, and followed up afterwards to be sure that everything was as we hoped. - Lynne Pendleton 

 

 

  Just a short note to tell you that I had the trip of a lifetime! All of the arrangements by Go2Africa went perfectly. Simbambili Game Lodge is a very special place and the two daily safaris were absolutely fantastic. I have hundreds of beautiful pictures of many animals including the Big 5. The service and accommodations there were exceptional. Cape Town is a very beautiful city and I enjoyed my week there. My 62nd birthday was 7/18/09. As you are aware it was also Nelson Mandela's birthday and so the whole city was in celebration.

My sincere thanks for you help in putting this together for me. I hope at some point in the future to return to Africa. Thanks again, - Drew Kovach  

 

 

 We truly had a wonderful time. On the whole the trip worked perfectly with the right amount of time in each place.
We were very happy with your services/ advice etc. All the planning and attention to detail was worth it. Everything worked like clockwork. - Lesley Prais 

 

 

 Our time spent at Sun City was really amazing - everything was great. The transfer to and from the airport was on time and very friendly, the Cabanas Hotel offered great service and the highlight of our stay was definitely the breakfast in the mornings - it was delicious. There is so much to see and do there - we took our little one on an elephant back safari - it was an experience of a life time...

Everything went so smooth - once again thank you for all your hard work in making sure every thing was perfect for us. I will definitely be contacting you in the future and will definitely recommend you to my family and friends - we should be planning another holiday around December so you will be hearing from me shortly....- Tarryn Voorhout 

 

 

 All road transfers were right on schedule and plane hops went as planned. Overall, it was a great trip and we thank you for all your hard work. We have been raving about our trip since we got home and we would definitely recommend you to anyone that is thinking about going to Africa. Thanks again! - Don and Mary Friedrich 

 

 

 We are back in India after a superb holiday in S Africa. Yours is a beautiful country. The arrangements are first class and we enjoyed ourselves. Thank you. - Malati 

 

 

 Tanya did a great job of listening to our individual desires and keeping it all within a budget we could afford. Many, many friends and family have enjoyed our pictures and inquired how we pulled it off so well in such a short time through such foreign territory & conditions. We tell them Tanya Ellis with Go2Africa was the answer! - Nancy 

 

 

 WE HAD AN ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC TIME....many thanks to you for assisting us in our travels. You listened to our requests and you delivered beyond our expectations! My husband and I continually reference Kwandwe and the Cape Grace...we will never forget this experience! - Judy and Kevin McDonough  

 

 

 I would like to thank you for organizing such a wonderful trip for my honeymoon. We really enjoyed our stay at properties suggested by you - Tintswalo Safari Lodge and Banyan Tree in the Seychelles. - Sunny Kansal 

 

 

 A friend of ours had mentioned he was interested in going to South Africa following the glowing reviews that Helen & I gave our trip, We were also full of praise for the excellent job / recommendations & organisation that you put together for us, & we suggested therefore that Go2Africa & in particular, your good self would be a good place to start. - Rob & Helen Weir
