— The MTT Team
Our Story
Makgale Travel and Tours — MTT — is an African woman-led and owned travel and destination management agency. Founded in 2011, it has grown to become the travel partner of choice for business and leisure clients in both domestic and international markets. Petite in size, MTT offers a boutique travel experience fit for royalty to the discerning traveller who wants quality service and peace of mind moving between ports and resting their heads at the end of the day.
The MTT Team — or ambassadors, as they prefer to be called — bring amazing industry expertise, delighting customers from first point of contact to returning from their trip. That care was recognised with the 2018 Akwaaba African Travel Market Top 100 Operators Award, a fitting reward for the hard work the team puts into every customer's travel, adventure and accommodation experience.
We tailor tours and holiday packages to each client's requirements and budget — with 60- and 30-seater coaches for long-distance comfort, and 14- and 8-seater mini-vans for smaller, faster-moving groups. Travel insurance is offered on every journey, because safety and comfort are our lasting motto.
Growing Into the Future
MTT has experienced steady growth, buoyed by increasing bookings from both European and Asian clients. Our investment in destination property in Thailand signals the trajectory towards more African and South African tourists travelling to Asia, while our domestic booking rate keeps growing from our new Midrand base — right in the centre of the hustle and bustle.
Long-term contracts with corporates, diplomatic missions and the public service are a niche we're built to serve, positioning MTT as the travel partner of choice for organisations with large, recurring travel needs.
Leadership
Chief Executive Officer
Described by the African Tourism Board as a visionary, Khomotso leads the MTT team with an attitude of sharing the load and an eagerness to serve every client's needs — the same spirit that has shaped MTT's reputation as a reliable, responsive and innovative operator.

Testimonials
Feeling so much grateful for making our stay in Cape Town a pleasant and most amazing trip. To Makgale Tours we are blessed — looking forward to our next trip. Much appreciated, the fabulous 8.
Who knew that Benoni had such great scenery — the magic of Khomotso placed all 14 of us, in a matter of 3 days, in a beautiful place called Flamingo's Nest. Top-top joint, will definitely use her again.
Khomotso, you are awesome. Thank you Makgale Tours for all the weekends away — my husband and I have been away five times already. Mozambique was off the hook. I can't wait for the next trip.
