Recent Testimonials:
I have never had
a better experience when planning for travel. Christine has been an absolute pleasure to work with.
She was extremely fast, efficient, and pleasant to deal with. There were times when we would
send off an email and would get a response just minutes later! We would
recommend her to a friend or family member in a heartbeat! In fact, we are
already planning to book with Chris again. Thanks for the great work Chris!

I recently arranged a trip to S.A. with TravelBoecker.
It was a pleasure dealing with Christine who was friendly, knowledgeable and
efficient. All arrangements were completed by telephone and e-mail. My tickets
and itinerary arrived as promised 2 weeks prior to departure together with my
authentic "african" inspired luggage labels.All travel arrangements
went according to plan. I would definitely use her services again and I am
already planning my next trip with her. - Dr S.K. Vancouver
I do want to thank you for all your hard work in
preparing for my summer vacation in Greece. The flights I had were excellent... The
time I spent in Greece was one of the best vacations that I have had there.
Thank you again. B.K. Steveston

On Safari with the whole Family?
Yes - You Can!
We have just returned from a memorable trip to Southern Africa, enjoying the vibrant city of Cape Town, discovering rural life in small towns along the famous Garden Route, and exploring the wildlife and bushveld of the Okavango Delta in Botswana - with my 10 year old offspring in tow - and we ALL had a wonderful experience!
I've often heard parents say: "We're going to wait until the children are older and can remember or appreciate the trip better". This is my child's 4th visit to Africa, and although the specific memories from previous trips may be a little blurred, I can tell you that there was a noticeable familiarity with this place and an understanding that the world does not only consist of home, school and friends.

KIDS' FUN IN CAPE TOWN
- a guide to keeping your young
ones entertained!
We
know it's not always easy traveling with children... their seemingly endless
energy can be exhausting, especially when you are meant to be on a relaxing vacation!
So we have found some fun and interesting ways to keep your bundles of joy
amused (and you sane) while in Cape Town...
The Two Oceans
Aquarium at the V&A Waterfront
is a memorable experienc e! My child remembered it from 5 years ago and again
she had a blast wondering around the exciting Two Oceans galleries, watching
the sharks in the predator exhibit, and exploring the 'touch pool' where
they can feel and touch kelp, shells and anemones! We really enjoyed the
penguin exhibit too.
If it's a geological adventure that is more up their
ally then a visit to the Scratch Patch
is a must. Filled with thousands of tumble polished semi-precious gemstones,
your kids will have a great time searching for their favourite ones. Choose
from Tiger's Eye, Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Jasper, Agates and Crystals!
If your kids are feeling a little more daring or have a
passion for wildlife, why not take them to the Cheetah Outreach Project at Spier Wine Estate? Children will love
learning all about this beautiful animal, and can brag to their friends that
they got the chance to touch a real live cheetah! Afterwards you can enjoy a
delectable picnic while the kids spend the afternoon in the play garden or take
a pony ride.
Watch your kids become mad scientists at the MTN Science Centre. Curious minds will be
enthralled by the 300 interactive displays. Whether learning how waves are made
or calling a friend from the world's largest cell phone, they'll have fun
playing while improving their science, technology and math skills.
These are just a few ways to keep your young ones
entertained while on vacation, and there are so many more exciting places and
things for kids to see and do in Cape Town!
Contact us to book your Family trip
to Cape Town!

ABOUT the TravelBoecker Service...
33
years ago I entered my uncle's Travel Agency as a travel agent apprentice - not knowing Sydney, N.S. from Sydney
N.S.W. Ever since then I have been
driven to explore the wonderful world we live in, from the dry and hot Kalahari
Desert to the cold and windy Beechey Island in the Arctic, where 4 members of
the Franklin expedition perished 150 years ago -- and many memorable places in
between!
"I cannot rest from travel, I will drink life to the lees. All times I have enjoyed greatly..." Tennyson (Ulysees)
 With
this accumulated knowledge and my unending passion for travel I am able to distill
and refine your travel ideas into the trip of your dreams.
I've lived and travelled in Africa and Europe before settling in Canada 16
years ago. Therefore I can provide advice and tidbits about locations that you
likely will not find on the 'net' - sharing with you special places and events
often overlooked by the crowds, which I have discovered on my own journeys.
As
a trained Certified Travel Counselor (C.T.C.) with a reputation as an expert I
strive to create and organize a memorable trip for you - every time!
Booking with TravelBoecker saves you time &
money and offers you peace of mind!
