Overall Rating: SCAM!
I just got word about another MLM and someone wanted to know if Thanda Travel is a scam. After some extended research, I have found more than enough information on whether or not you should join this not so great travel MLM.
The first thing I thought of when I landed on this site was another travel MLM called Pro Travel Plus, which is another scheme I gave into last year.
Just like that one, Thanda Travel is claiming to do the whole share its revenue with its members which immediately had the siren going off.
I was actually amazed at what I found out about this site and its owners, so you might thank yourself for doing your homework.
Here is a complete review of Thanda Travel
What is Thanda Travel?
This would be the product of Sankie Buekes and Daniella Le Roux who are not so new to the MLM world and running schemish operations.
They put together this magnificent marketing tool, as well as the best travel deals and the great income potential for all its “stake holders”.
The owners have a really bad name, but even that will not deter people from joining ponzi schemes due to the desperation of making money.
Who is Thanda Travel For
It is intended for anyone who travels a lot, but of course that is not their main goal.
To top it off, it is very rare that any of these travel MLMs last even if they do have a legitimate plan in mind and this is mainly because people looking to make money are NOT traveling.
This is something I don’t get when people approach me about their latest and greatest travel company. When I ask them if they use the products, a whopping 90% of them said no.
Here’s some advice for those of you involved with any multilevel marketing business. Make sure you actually use what you are trying to sell and most especially, know what you are joining before dishing out any money.
The Products
Travel deals anyone? That is exactly what you will get and they will be included in their portal with amazing deals on…
- Hotels
- Flights
- Car Hire
- Tours
- Boat trips
Very typical travel type stuff that as well as some travel vouchers that you will receive every month.
A big problem with these deals is the fact that most of them don’t work, you can find them on the net, and who do you know could use these deals after spending the monthly fee?
How Much Does it Cost to Join Thanda Travel?
Just like Pro Travel Plus, they make it affordable and give you the comfort of “I really have nothing to lose”. This time around, I will not be giving a single penny to this as I know exactly what and who I am dealing with.
For what it’s worth, you will be spending $34.95 every single month to get these travel deal and most especially to take part in the nice little pay plan that comes with every single MLM business.
The Thanda Travel Compensation Plan
Always a big deal when it comes to network marketing and something that can either make or break a person’s decision when joining the latest and greatest MLM.
“Profit sharing” is what will get most people to pull the trigger here. They claim that you will share 30% of the company profits, which is really hard to believe.
The company operates on a 2x matrix which again (just like Pro Travel Plus) uses the whole spillover nonsense to reel you in.
The most believable part about the whole comp plan is the nice little matching bonuses for bringing other people into the so called business.
As well as the once-off income on sales and new merchants. Other than that, the rest is nothing but hype to get you to join this ponzi scheme.
Pros & Cons of Thanda Travel
I usually have good and bad things to say about different companies, but there’s just no getting over the fact that these scammers are not honest.
The only thing I can say that I actually liked about this site is the theme and the logo. Everything else on there is nothing but information to fill space.
I feel like I’m joining a ponzi scheme that I was once apart of all over again. Thanks to the complaints, this one will get $0 from me.
Complaints About Thanda Travel
For a company so young, it is pretty bad to have people talking negatively about them. I mean, all companies get talked about, but this one hasn’t even left the launch pad.
I have seen some grammatical errors on the site and that is a big no no when you’re trying to run something professional. Then they try to make it seem like they updated their site on May 22, 2016 when I did this review on May 16th? Come on man!
The one big complaint that has now surfaced is the track record of the owners. They have ran other schemes online and it looks like they are trying to make money in any and every way possible.
They tried to run a scheme called the United Kingdom of Africa and they have failed to pay people what they were owed pretending they were having them invest in some type of African coin.
Checkout this video and you will see how this dude was scammed for about $3500 from one of their other companies they used to run.
So is Thanda Travel a Scam?
Absolutely. I have nothing agains MLMs even if I disagree with their business model. With this one, the owners say it all.
They copied the same business model as Pro Travel Plus and I don’t see them paying anyone out no matter what the case may be.
This is another boy that cried wolf story and you would be crazy to think you would get anywhere with the Thanda Travel scam.
To make things worse is the fact that travel and MLM don’t mix. There are some that are doing decent, but it’s all a matter of time before people realize that they are wasting too much money with the membership.
What I Really Think
Selling an MLM is not the easiest thing and not the most ethical way to make money either. Trying to get people to join something so you can make money is not my idea of a business.
With network marketing already being a task and a half, what more trying to sell a travel business? Not so good business plus a poor product will result in a big fat fail.
I always recommend starting your own online business as it is by far the best way to make money from home. Forget about recruiting people and focus on giving people what they already want. It doesn’t get any better than that.

I hope this review of Thanda Travel has given you all the information you need and I most especially hope I’ve helped you dodge another MLM scam.
Of course you’ll have its members talk highly about it, but I would love to hear what you think. Once a scammer always a scammer? I think so.

Not sure why this is being published. The person making these allegations is lying and the people concerned are neither scamsters nor fraudsters. This entire review is defamatory and untrue and should not be published on the net without being verified first. If the owner of this page has any integrity, you would remove this immediately.

Someone is clearly using my name … I am Jayshree Govender and this is not the facts and the opinions posted in the above comments is unfair.
Sankie and Danielle are trying to develop something to give South Africans an opportunity to make their lives better and feed their families. People have a choice to get to know them as individuals first before listening to this crap!!!!!
When you are given an opportunity, you decide whether you want to participate or not!
What disturbs me is that we are willing to get involved in company’s that are in outside countries were they exploit SAfrican’s … if we don’t all work together here on our door steps nothing will get better for US!!!
Opportunity is yours to take …. work hard and re invest in other things. You dreams can certainly be realised!

Thanks for this article. I know from experience that Sankie and Daniella are professional SCAM artist. It won’t be long before they end up in a South African prison. I actually have recorded multiple conversations when they tried to recruit me that proofs that every thing in this article is correct. They have not intention of doing any thing other than making a quick buck.
Get this! Sankie actually says that god has stored up the richest of the “unrighteous” for her “missionaries” and thandatravel.com is the vehicle to do that???!!! What they plan to do with money they have stolen from people who they tricked into investing into 5 Rand Nelson Mandela coins is to use it recruit poor black Africans into their system with the promise of brining in 200,000 KINGS??? Yes I said it. They Claim to be bringing 200,000 Kings thanks to the help of Trudie Englebrecht of the United Kingdom of Africas (Another SCAM). So they are promising that everyone who comes in will be on top of the 200,000 thousand kings and their families. Its a pretty good story until you find out they been selling this same story for the past 4 years and every scam is the same. Here are some websites of found made by these scam artist.

Thanks for sharing Jayshree and I’m sorry if you lost any money to these scam artists. Do you know if any of their other sites are still active?
Jayshree Govender
Yes, any website made by “Creative Hearts” is made by these crooks http://reversewhois.domaintools.com/creative-hearts
I posted a few others that they either created or are affiliated with above. Trudie Englebrecht is the money behind everything they do. They are just the faces that everyone gets to see.

I was apart of Pro Travel Plus as well and that was the last time I ever fell for any and every travel MLM. It may seem like you have nothing to lose, but knowing how much money these scammers make is not cool. To know that I contributed to their bank accounts is really a shame in my part. But hey, I always try to see the good in any company and this is why it is hard to trust anyone. Glad to see that this is a flat out scam and please do share this post to get awareness out there. Thanks again Jayshree!
