Mrs. Blair was in Johannesburg from the 28th to the 30th June 2016 to launch a new report on the achievements of the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women Mentoring Women in Business Programme.

She visited some of the women entrepreneurs participating in the programme, including Lucille who is the founder of the tour company, Cresco Tours ™. Lucille has seen her company grow significantly with the support of her mentor on the programme. She was honoured to meet Mrs. Blair and take her and a group of benefactors of the Foundation on a tour of the Apartheid Museum, Mandela Family Home and Regina Mundi Catholic Church.

Cresco Tours ™ also arranged all the road transportation needs for Mrs Blair and her group whilst they were in Johannesburg.

Well!, we hardly know where to begin except to say a BIG "Thank you" to Ian & Lucille from Cresco Tours ™. Not only do they offer exceptional quality service as tour operators to tour operators but family support too.

We’ve met Ian and Lucille at SATSA Chapter meetings and since then we’ve built such a remarkable relationship as business trade partners & good friends.

Christley International knew they were in good hands from the very first time they’ve met and connected, we will continue to offer Cresco Tours ™ our valued support. I would also like to thank you for your excellent service on group travels.

Ian & Lucille will always go out of their way to give you their undivided personalized attention by always going effortlessly the extra mile.

They offer an impeccable service of excellence! THANK YOU

Hallo Lucille,

The holiday was great! We had a wonderful time in Chobe where we saw many animals, especially lions. For me the highlight was the Vic Falls. We did a helicopter flight, went through the "rain forest" and had a drink at Victoria Falls Hotel.

Thank you for the perfect organisation in this short time! I know that we are a little bit complicated. Our journeys are always very spontaneous without time for planning.

Alles Gute und viele liebe Grüße von uns allen

We took advantage of spending the day in Pretoria visiting historical houses with a wonderfully informative guide from Cresco Tours ™.

I had a wonderful time in Johannesburg thanks to you and Ian. I wish the rest of my travels in Africa had been as nice.

Ian took some photos while we were at the Lion Park and mentioned that these were coming to a Facebook page near you.

It is nice to know that Cresco Tours ™ has a relief that is as friendly as what you and Ian are.

Lucille is a professional - fast in answering your emails, full of knowledge, very interested and a kind person.

Visited the Sterkfontein Caves, the Wits University, the Lion Park and Lesedi village and was at home with her.

Will certainly contact Lucille for next holidays.

Good morning Lucille,

On behalf of Joburg Tourism I would like to compliment you for the excellent services rendered to Ms Jackie Bossou, even though it was a short notice you managed to pull it through.

Without the support of people like you, we would not be able to reach our goals. Once again thank you for the good services, we look forward to working with you again in the future.

Many thanks and kindest regards,

Ratanang Mokwena
