Why travel with WESTWOOD TRAVEL?

We are different from other travel companies. Booking your personally designed holiday with Westwood Travel guarantees a journey that has been thoroughly planned by an expert with in-depth knowledge of the region, and we pride ourselves on our attention to detail and customer service.

• Expert Consultants
  All our consultants have travelled extensively throughout many countries so you can rely on their first hand knowledge and boundless enthusiasm for our destinations. You will find an honest “tell it as it is” approach to planning an itinerary, suggesting sights and selecting accommodation. We regularly visit the destinations, meticulously inspect hotels and keep abreast of all issues relating to travel. We believe this approach is unique to Westwood Travel and ensures you have the best possible travel experience.
• Tailor-made Journeys
  The joy of tailor-made travel is that your entire holiday is designed around your requirements, so you are not tied to the set itinerary of many "off the shelf" tour operators. This allows you to explore your own interests and select your own style of accommodation, with our Consultants’ knowledge always at your disposal.
• Accommodation
  With Westwood Travel, where you stay is very much part of the experience. Wherever possible we try to select some of the more unusual, character accommodation options. We regularly inspect the accommodation we suggest, updating our knowledge on existing properties and researching new ones. Some of our favourite and more interesting examples are featured on our website, although we can recommend many others to suit all budgets and tastes; just call us to find out more.
• Transportation
  We use the most convenient means of transport for each sector of your holiday and is it possible that your Consultant travelled along that route themselves.
• By River: Travelling by river is often a traditional means of transport, especially in Southeast Asia, Europe and Russia. We use boats specially designed to enhance the experience.
• By Rail: Rail journeys can be a great way of enjoying the superb scenery and are always a wonderful way to experience the local way of life.
• Flights
  For international flights we only use the services of large reputable airlines. For internal flights we use smaller airlines that have established a good reputation. We are able to provide prices for travelling in economy, business and first class. Many Westwood Travel clients are now choosing to travel in a premier economy cabin for extra space and comfort at an affordable price. If you would prefer to fly from your local airport, we can arrange this too, either as a connecting flight to OR Tambo (Johannesburg International) or Cape Town International Airport.
