From 5 to 7 February 2026, the Brabanthallen in ‘s-Hertogenbosch will be the lively backdrop for the very first edition of the Holiday Festival, the new travel lifestyle event where destinations, travel organizations and travel lifestyle brands come together in an inspiring festival atmosphere full of experience, advice and entertainment.
As part of the VvKR, Sable Tours presents itself to visitors with personal, adventurous and nature-oriented trips to southern and eastern Africa, aimed at travelers looking for purity, space and special encounters.
Adventure, nature and personal attention
Sable Tours specializes in tailor-made tours to South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Madagascar, Kenya, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Mauritius and Mozambique. Their approach revolves around careful itineraries, small-scale lodges, and authentic experiences that go deeper than a standard safari. Travelers discover the silence of the desert, the open plains of the savannah, the warmth of local hospitality and the rich rhythm of African life. “Southern Africa touches you in a way that is difficult to capture in words,” says Marcella Kemperman of Sable Tours. “At the Holiday Festival, we want visitors to experience what a trip to this region feels like: intense, personal and full of moments that will stay with you forever.”
A powerful addition to the festival experience
According to Frits Kuijper, creative director of the Vakantie Festival, Sable Tours brings a unique atmosphere to the event. “They give Africa a face that is warm, honest and moving. The passion and expertise they bring make their stand a place where visitors are really touched.” T.J. van Apeldoorn, strategic director of the Holiday Festival, sees Sable Tours as an important link within the diversity of small-scale travel organizations. “With Sable Tours, we welcome a specialist who shows how meaningful customization can be. Their local knowledge, involvement and sustainable view fit perfectly with our ambition to create a broad, inspiring festival.”
