Mauritius

Most Memorable Trip

My trip to Mauritius stands out as one of my most memorable to date. This stunning island is known for its friendly people and breathtaking beaches, offering a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. It also serves as an ideal addition to the end of your journey, whether you're coming from Kenya or South Africa.

Top of My Bucket-List

I’d love to head out on a Kenya safari, followed by a blissful beach stay in Zanzibar - the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. Planning my trip around witnessing the wildebeest migration would be a dream come true—it's truly an iconic experience that captures the essence of Africa's wildlife.

Favorite Safari Animal

"An elephant, (typical I know), but I have always been fascinated by them! I would would be absolutely ecstatic if I could catch a glimpse of a baby elephant too!"

Sundowner of Choice

"My sundowner of choice has to be a classic Gin and Tonic, or a nice glass of South African wine. You really can't go wrong with either of those options."

Favourite Propety

"Tengile River Lodge is my favourite! It's a beautiful retreat with stunning rooms and deck areas that overlook the Sabi Sands river, where herds of elephants often gather."

Top Travel Tip

Packing cubes! As someone who loves to travel but hates packing, these have made my life so much easier. They’re perfect for a safari and beach trip, especially when you need to pack different types of clothing. Plus, they can double as handy laundry bags while you’re away.

Best Part of My Job

I love that every day is different - never know what to expect! Another wonderful and rewarding part of my job is receiving feedback from my clients once they've returned from a trip. I love hearing about their incredible experiences, animal sightings and moments that just took their breath away. From there, its all about how we can work together to make their next trip even better!
