Having spent half my life (over 20 years) in the travel industry I have certainly been to, and experienced, some incredible places. Exploring some of Africa’s iconic destinations has only reinforced my dream of putting my first-hand knowledge and experience to work, by crafting seamless, life-changing holidays. This, combined with my invaluable knowledge of all the areas &Beyond operates in, and the logistics involved in getting guests safely and effectively around Africa, will undoubtedly assure unforgettable travel memories.

Favourite destinations
Namibia, for its vast open spaces, breath-taking scenery and great contrasts – ocean, dunes, mountains and deserts and Botswana, which is blessed with some of Africa’s most beautiful reserves and exceptional array of wildlife. The Okavango Delta is a magical oasis and the Chobe River, with swimming elephant and hippos grazing out of the water during the day, is just incredible. The habituated meerkats and Bushmen of the Makgadikgadi are also real highlights. I love Tanzania, for its annual wildebeest migration, it is also a country of natural splendour, astounding year-round wildlife, archaeological sites and geological wonders. Kenya – for its huge diversity in activities and in the different parks and reserves, abundance of wildlife and sheer beauty of the Masai Mara.
