Ralph da Silva

Ralph's journey in the tourism industry began with a renowned youth travel brand, where he guided tour groups across Europe. After a focus on Spain, Portugal, and Morocco, Ralph began guiding trips across Africa, which truly captured his heart. Among his many experiences, it's his cherished memories of guiding in South Africa, especially within his home province of Mpumalanga, that stand out as a highlight of his guiding career.
