Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I book a Travel Planning Consultation?
With over 20 years experience travelling and living in Africa, and over 10 years as a solo traveller, I have gained invaluable knowledge navigating the Motherland. From trawling websites and social media, to reading various travel books and guides, and most importantly, from learning from local people and my own experiences, I can help you curate a rewarding and immersive adventure in Africa.
I have been fortunate to have since travelled all four corners of the Motherland, from North, South, East West, and Madagascar.
Everywhere has been different, with its own unique charm and experience. I hope to inspire you to do the same.
