"The
person responsible for putting together the tours,
travel (transfers included) and social functions for
ICEEP is Ethne Cameron. She is really the best
possible operator – you will not find better
anywhere! Ethne is very well connected,
knowledgeable and with her on your team at the
congress you can relax about any travel requirements
from your delegates."

"Once again I want to tell you how much I appreciate
what you did for ICEEP. You were right about
everything and you delivered what I wanted. It WAS
the best ICEEP ever. I know it and I have been told
it by so many delegates and I think so many people
went away knowing that the experience on Table
Mountain was a once in a lifetime privilege. We are
a very lucky group to have had that experience. In
many ways I was sad to get on my plane but in others
I was very content. I love Africa and the people and
as Arnold Swazeneger always said, I will be back."
