Dear Darren,

Thank you so much for your hospitality in sponsoring the Hartbeespoort Tourism Association committee workshop on the 6th January 2010. This event, being our first committee meeting in 2010 has assisted us in getting on track with our direction and “the way forward”.

We are confident that this association will grow from strength to strength creating far more exposure of our wonderful country and in turn improving tourism for South Africa.

We are grateful that companies such as Lesedi, share our vision and assist us in making this happen.

You have a wonderful venue and the committee members now have personal experience of your great venue.

Once again thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Mark Turner
Chairperson

Jacinda all your staff members made me proud.  Ryan is so down to earth and helpful.  Lesedi Cultural Village is so much of African origin. Everything is so authentic.  Thank you very much once more our function went very well.  It was an event with the difference.  Thanks to Aubrey who was extremely helpful at the Boma.

All other nationalities were fully represented except the Ndebele dancing and historic background.  Please do consider bringing them on board. You already have all the facilities all you need is to tell about them and dancing.

Dear Jacinda,

I would like to express my most heartfelt gratitude at the professional way, that Ms Samantha Joffe, handled our group tour and lunch in the Nile Room, on Friday, 9 January 2009.

She followed up with each of our group before we arrived, made sure we all had the correct details, maps, dietary requirements, etc, and made each person feel very welcome .

Her arrangements for a personal tour for our group was truly appreciated, and all of us really learnt a lot from the informative and incredible video presentation, a look at each special room in the different villages and wonderful storytelling abilities of babaNkosana.

The rest of the staff were well organised, friendly and very alert to everyone’s needs, especially Em press, who was fantastic, the food was excellent and well presented, and the Nile Room experience, incredible.

I would not hesitate to recommend Samantha for her warmth, people skills, organising such incredible lunches and for following up in such an awesome way.

We will always, use Lesedi as our first choice for all of our team-building conferences and to host our international clients for a superb cultural experience .

Yours sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:

On the evening of the 18th of November 2008, our regional sales team attended an evening at Lesedi Cultural Village. As our team building event, we embarked on a Dance challenge with a difference. Split into 2 groups, we were taught different African dances and made to compete against each other. This was entertaining, fun and very different. We all loved the experience. After exhausting ourselves on the dance floor, we were treated to a wonderful buffet of African food and hubbly bubbly’s that ensured our evening was extremely memorable.

I cannot wait to go back and experience all that Lesedi has to offer. It truly is a wonderful, unique experience that will be enjoyed by all!

Kind regards,
Melissa from Nedbank

Dear Jacinda

I would just like to thank you very much for the invitation on this past Tuesday to meet Kingsley.

It just so happens that I have two of his books and have always found him to be a very interesting man.

Since meeting him, this is confirmed, but added value that he is a gentleman, a humble man, a very wise man and a very good man with many stories to tell, and someone who should be a role model to many.

I am honored to have met him and would like to thank personally and sincerely for the fantastic day that I won’t forget.

Thanking you

Regards

WORD OF THANKS

Dear Jacinda,

This is to thank you sincerely for the hospitality you accorded us. The three of us went to Lesedi and indeed found all arrangements in order. It was an excellent experience for us all for we have never been to a cultural village before. The dances, people and meals were all of top class.

I am sure we can work together in some areas and we will come back to you. I trust that this will be the beginning of a long business relationship to come.

Once again, many thanks.

Finrite Year End Function,

Hi Jacinda,

Firstly, I was amazed at the length you went to; to make sure our function won’t be forgotten. I realize that your job was to manage the function, but you did so much more then that for us, you made us feel like your only clients and no-one else mattered.

To you and your team I would like to congratulate and thank for a fabulous evening. When we arrived, we were welcomed by warm and friendly people. The little things like being greeted when walking down a path by the staff of Lesedi, makes me feel valued and special. Especially in a time where everyone just goes about on their own without noticing the people around them.

The venue was done exquisitely and to you I want to give special thanks. You took the work load from me and did something I am sure I would not have accomplished. You were like my knight in shinning amour.

To all the staff that assisted with the evening – guys I am in awe of your professionalism and loyalty. Every person took pride in their duty for the evening – from management all the way down. You made everyone feel at home and special.

A friend of mine told me about the food at Lesedi – he was not joking around. For an “Afrikaans meisie” like myself who grew up with “rys, vleis en artapples” you did an awesome meal. Playing around with the dishes satisfied every taste and style. Thank you to the Lesedi chefs and everyone who assisted with the meal.

Once again, THANK YOU!

The three tenors – every once in a while a person sees something truly amazing. On Saturday night, I saw something truly amazing and it was the three of you. Talent like that must be shared. Thank you for sharing it with Finrite.

Lastly, I would like to wish each and every staff member at Lesedi and wonderfull Christmas – May you and your families be blessed with lost of love, peace and happiness. May the year ahead bring you all the joy and prosperity –so truly deserved!

Jacinda, once again my deepest and sincerest thank you. Your kindness and friendliness is much appreciated.

Dear Gawie
Further to our final event for the True Love Bride of the Year 2004, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks for the Lesedi Cultural Village sponsorship and the tremendous effort your staff put into making the weekend successful.

Each one of your support team did a great job, with each polite and willing to be of assistance, however, there were some who contributed effortlessly to ensure that all run smoothly and I would like to extend a special thank you to Kim de Lange who worked non-stop the entire weekend and Baba Dlamini whose passion for Lesedi Cultural Village is evident in his commitment to excellence.

I would like to thank your staff again for their assistance and look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
