Everything you could want from 4 days on safari
we spent the most wonderful 4 days staying in first Kirkman's Camp and then 2 nights in Saseka Tented Camp which were both amazing but different. Kirkman's was more more traditional having been around for decades but everything was top drawer from the hospitality to the knowledge and expertise of the guides. Saseka had a stunning layout and again the perfect combination of sheer luxury, the most friendly of staff, and great guides.
We loved our time at both camps and logistics were all seamless to and from camps and airports all efficiently organised by our travel agent and others.
Cannot recommend enough and hopefully we will be back.

WE did many different tours, all were amazing.
We had the pleasure of dealing with Wilma at JD Destinations last year. We live in Australia, Wilma was absolutely amazing, she booked 90% of our Africa holiday. We had to fit it in with my Nephew & his Wife, who both work, & we wanted to spend quality time with them. Wilma was fantastic, making all our other arrangements around their free time. We were able to contact Wilma at any time if we needed her help. Thankfully, her professionalism proved that we didn't actually need to.
We have no hesitation in recommending Wilma & JD Destinations to anyone wanting to see the beautiful countries in Africa.

Two unforgettable trips thanks to Wilma's exceptional planning and support
Wilma organized two trips for me this year - a sibling trip to South Africa to celebrate a significant birthday and a family safari in Tanzania. She took the time to listen carefully and understand our needs and preferences for both trips. The result was two well-planned and thoughtful itineraries that exceeded our expectations. Both trips were much better than anything I could have planned myself. Unfortunately, my son fell ill the night before our Tanzania trip, which caused a delay. However, Wilma was extraordinarily supportive and acted quickly to save as much of our itinerary as possible. Despite the unexpected situation, Wilma ensured that the experience was not stressful, and I am very grateful for that.

Personal, attentive service from knowledgeable experts
I have been fortunate enough to travel to many worldwide locations. Like many people I have started to use the internet to book certain elements myself. For our Kruger safari and Cape Town trip we were blessed to find the wonderful Wilma Nicholls of JD Destinations. Wilma has single-handedly changed my outlook and experiences at the true worth of an experienced travel specialist. Wilma’s help, knowledge, advice and beyond duty attitude and approach was breathtaking and invaluable. Wilma is a true professional but also incredibly approachable and always able to be contacted. Such amazing service. I highly recommend you use JD Destinations for all of your African vacation plans if you want seamless and memorable experiences.

Available 24/7 and very attentive to all our requests and changes a long the holiday planing proces.
My family had an amazing 8 days holiday in Namibia that were planned with Wilma’s help. Besides the fact we enjoyed it a lot, must point out Wilma teamed us with good service providers ,hotels/lodges and all needed information. I find her patience to all our special requests and changes extraordinary, as well the fact that she was always available and quick to respond to any question or request, even late evening, weekend and holidays. What more can you ask for? It’s all ready the second time she making our holiday great. We are grateful for her and warmly recommend her service. Thank you Wilma so, so much. I guess we’ll keep on bothering you in the future :) Daphna

World class travel providers
Our recent trip to Rwanda from December 1-16, 2021, was far better than expected. Wilma, through JD Destinations, organized and executed a fantastic trip. Because the Covid19 protocols changed about 24 hours before we began our trip, Wilma was able to book us an extra night in a villa where we had to quarantine. Let me tell you how spectacular this was: we had the entire grounds of our villa to do the 24-hour quarantine. This included 4 bedrooms, 3 1/2 bathrooms, a living room area, an inside dining area and an outside dining area, swimming pool and pool house with a full-staff. I was almost sad to see my quarantine end, but the fabulousness didn’t end there. Near the villa is also a bar with bespoke cocktails made from local coffees that are fantastic. Our trip not only included wonderful resorts like The Retreat, Magashi Camp and Bisate Lodge, but we experienced the best that Rwanda had to offer in guides and wildlife as well. During our many excursions, we experienced so many animals in their natural habitats because we had guides who are experts with their respective animal. This was all arranged through JD Destinations via Wilma. We’ve had the opportunity to travel to more than 20 countries over the last 7 years and we’ve done all of the planning ourselves. However, Covid19 makes planning travel much more complicated on so many levels. After all of our wonderful experiences in Rwanda, as we were prepared to leave, our flight was canceled while we were at the airport. Wilma and her team sprang into action and in less than 24 hours we had a flight home. Prior to Covid19 and this experience, I’d always believed that travel agents and agencies were a frivolous expense. However, since this experience, I have come to truly appreciate what these professional experts do. They ensure that your trip is as close to your dreams and imagination as possible. Often exceeding even what you can imagine. And they take all of the headaches. When our flight was cancelled at the last minute, we simply returned to our hotel that we’d left went back to our same room and crawled into bed. Wilma and her team worked throughout the night ensuring that we got the next available flight out of there. This team is far better than having travel insurance because they stick with you and ensure that everything goes better than planned. I would highly recommend not only this trip to anyone, but also JD Destinations and Wilma.

Was a pleasure to have used Just Do from start to fininish!
Just Do are an efficient, very knowledgeable and a highly capable team. They sourced what we wanted with several options, followed up before we arrived to remove admin for us, and dealt with last minute changes we had to make without any fuss to us. It was a pleasure to have worked with them and will continue to do so on future trips for holiday and work travel.

Fantastic Wilma (as always!)
Having booked my first trip to South Africa with Wilma, and JD Destinations, last year I thought that it would be impossible to come close to matching my previous experience.
However, once again, Wilma has raised the bar and knocked it out the park! My fiancée and I travelled to South Africa this Nov/Dec to celebrate our baby moon so wanted to see other areas of the country whilst combining our love for safari and relaxation.
Wilma spent a great deal of time curating a bespoke trip that enabled us to see a number of South Africa’s hidden gems and create even more memories. Wilma’s knowledge is unquestionable and she has first hand experience of the travel routes that she proposed. She fully understands our requirements and is able to consistently deliver a 5 star experience.
Wilma also goes out of her way to ensure that a number of special touches were arranged by our hotels/lodges to celebrate our special vacation. Our trip ran incredibly smoothly enabling us to travel the country stress free which was important to us as my partner is pregnant. Wilma was on hand every step of the way and was also personally interested in hearing about our experiences which was nice. Whilst Wilma is a true professional she is now also a great friend, and we will forever owe her for our amazing experiences. Our relationship started from a recommendation from my father and, due to the success of all of our trips, Wilma is now arranging other trips for my wider family.
If you are considering booking with Wilma and JD Destinations, my advice would be to stop deliberating and to book. The consistent 5 star reviews speak for themselves. Look forward to booking our next trip with you Wilma when 2 become 3! And hopefully see you in London some day soon! Thank you once again for everything!

Excellent service.
I have booked numerous international flights as well and the service has always been exemplary - changes have been made very easy and Jen and team ensure that I have the right travel documentation and even do early check in and provide boarding passes etc online.
Highly recommended for personal service.
