“We have come to rely on the excellent services provided by North South Travel – both for our own travel requirements and also for our clients, such as the Caine Prize for African Writing, Africa’s leading literary award. This involves workshops in African countries with often very complicated travel arrangements – always carried out efficiently and cheerfully by North South.”
Patrick Orr/Chairman, Raitt Orr and Associates
“I would strongly recommend using North South Travel. I have been using them for the last decade and have always found them extremely helpful. They provide an efficient, reliable and friendly service. I have used them for booking flights, trains and accommodation. They respond quickly to requests for further information. Additionally, the profits go to good causes, which helps people in poorer countries and also makes you feel better yourself.”

“I want to thank you for your rare combination of qualities – speed, efficiency and a great sense of humour when it comes to arranging complex travel schedules at the last minute. It is always great to work with you. I know journalists, like myself, are not the easiest people to deal with, but you have always got me where I needed to be and on the day I needed to be there. As a result, I have recommended many other journalists to get in touch with the excellent North South. An added bonus is that you dedicate some of your revenue to developmental and environmental causes. Thanks again so much and more power to your elbow.”

“Hand in Hand has used North South Travel for organising group travel arrangements for 20 years. They have always offered an excellent service and dealt with inquiries promptly and efficiently. To know also that profit is being used to benefit projects around the world is another excellent reason to use their services. We would highly recommend them.”
Sue Smith/Hand in Hand
“I have used North South Travel for almost 30 years and keep using it. The Internet arrived and yes sometimes I book myself and sometimes Brenda will say this will be cheaper if you book yourself but often it is cheaper and there are better deals with North South. We make documentaries all over the world often in difficult places and they are fantastic. They are always so friendly and understanding when a project has fallen through or just changing dates or routes last minute. They are also great when you leave your wallet in the plane and before you know you have lost it they are in touch and have the airline holding your wallet! I also look forward to the annual report of the charities they have supported throughout the world knowing our bookings helped make it happen.”
