WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY:
"On behalf of the University of Pretoria Jakaranda Children’s Choir, I would personally like to thank you for arranging the perfect choir tour to Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Austria. From the onset you made sure we were aware of all that was required to make the planning a success as well as the actual tour. The arrangements, accommodation, festivals, performances, tours, guides, etc were all perfect and we had a memorable time. I have worked with many travel agencies before, but none can compare, both financially and professionally, to what I have experienced with my relationship with you and Cultour Africa. Thank you for your willingness to help and all your advice regarding travelling and touring. I know that the children had a blast of a time and on behalf of the parent committee, choir committee, parents, children and myself, we salute you. I look forward to our next venture together. Best Wishes Michael Barrett Musical Director Jakaranda Children’s Choir tour to Europe: 2010	"Ek wil net BAIE dankie sê vir weereens ‘n FABULOUS toer! Dit was ongelooflik en ek weet dat elke koorlid dit vir die res van sy lewe sal onthou. Al die moeite vooraf, die bymekaarkom, vergaderings, visums ens! Ek waardeer dit ongelooflik. Dankie ook dat ons gerus kon toer met die wete dat die busse daar is, konserte gereël is en die verblyf altyd in die kol is. Dit is ‘n voorreg om saam met julle te kan werk en dit is waarom ons julle altyd sal gebruik. (Die res het ek ALS oor die foon vir jou gesê) NOGMAALS BAIE dankie x 1000!

"How can we thank you for all you did in organizing our Choir Tour to Russia? It would not have happened without you. You were truly fantastic. Thank you for putting together such a phenomenal package, for putting up with all of our questions and late changes, and for staying so calm about it all. Your assistance with the passports when the crisis arose in Cape Town was also much appreciated. The Russian tour company which you put us in contact with was amazing, and Olga and Antonina, who are wonderful people, provided an excellent service. Both the boys and the staff have had a memorable trip, and for the boys in particular the trip will no doubt be a highlight of their school career; thank you for your part in this. Mark Mitchell and Joc Wrench Music Teachers BISHOPS (Diocesan College)	"I would like to compliment you and your agency for the outstanding work you are doing in promoting our arts and culture all over the world because I personally very strongly believe that our most effective and powerful international marketing promotional tool is to inform the world about the beauty and spectacular of South Africa are our arts, culture and sport, ie the diversity of our people. Thank you for affording us the opportunity of having our Tygerberg High School Symphony Wind Orchestra perform in Milan. Thank you once again for all your kind efforts and I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for everything you are doing for our people and our country. William Steenkamp Consul General SOUTH AFRICAN EMBASSY, Milan, Italy

"From our side we would like to thank you very, very much for all your efforts in making our tour to Poland a success. The two weeks were fantastic. It was an honour for us to perform in such wonderful venues, the tears flowed spontaneously as we observed the audience in awe of our choirs' performance. Again many thanks, we will never forget this tour. Anna-Liza Fourie Conductor FORTISSIMO'S CHOIR, Worcester	"As the end of the term has come hecticly to it's close, I want to take this opportunity to express to you my very warm appreciation for your wonderful co-operation and assistance in the organising of our Japanese tour. Your efficiency and ready willingness to contribute to its success is deeply acknowledged and appreciated, and I look forward to further business with you in the years ahead.

"On behalf of the Choir and accompanying staff at Pretoria High School for Girls, I would like to thank you very much for organizing our recent tour to the World Choir Games in Xiamen, China. The tour went off very well and we all learnt a tremendous amount whilst there. The Choir fared very well and brought two silver medals home with them after competing in two categories. We are so very proud of them. Penny McNair Headmistress PRETORIA HIGH SCHOOL FOR GIRLS	"We had such a wonderful Chorale tour in the holidays. Everything ran like clockwork, the concerts venues were great and the bus driver and tour guide were really fantastic. Thank you so much for all the work that you did on our behalf- working through you really took a lot of the agrivation out of it all. We will be in contact for the next one!!

"On behalf of the parents committee and children I wish to thank you sincerely for the excellent tour you arranged for us to Europe. With this tour absolutely nothing went wrong. The accommodation was of outstanding quality, the meals, for the price, were unsurpassable, all the city tours comprehensive and all busses with air conditioning. The tour for both children and adults alike were an unforgettable experience and more than we expected. We only receive positive feedback from the children and their parents. Please convey our thanks to your personnel. W J Oosthuizen Chairman NORTHERN TRANSVAAL YOUTH CHOIR	"It is with pleasure that our orchestra members and conductor, Mr Danie Smith, direct this letter to you, to thank you profusely for all the efforts you went to to make our tour to Europe an unforgettable one. All arrangements were organised to perfection, and the tour program was of an outstanding quality and very informative. Both the orchestra members and Mr Smith enjoyed the tour tremendously, and returned to South Africa enriched. Thank you very much for a wonderful tour !!

"I wish to thank the three of you and your company VERY VERY much for an unforgettable tour! Your arrangements throughout were absolutely superb! The hotels were great, the food was very good, the places we visited were amazing, and the competition we took part in, was fantastic. It was not too big nor intimidating like the Choir Olympics in Bremen (this was also fantastic), but because it was smaller, it was more intimate and personal! We could not in Preveza, have had better accommodation. It was 5 minutes from the performance venue and all the judges also stayed in the same hotel. It was extremely central for all the parents to do shopping. And what is more, other choirs there could not believe that we had a complete concert in the cathedral in Rome. They also tried to organize this, but to no avail. We just said that Marelise and Cultour Africa had no problems organizing this. And it WAS fantastic to perform there – almost the highlight of our tour! We will definitely in future make use of your services! Marietjie Martinson Laerskool Gene Louw
