Luciemarie Swanepoel
Owner & Travel Specialist
My career in Tourism started by accident. I never planned to work in Tourism. No. I wanted to become a game ranger. Visiting my grandparents over school holidays on a farm next to the Kruger National Park, I got exposed to the African wildlife and my desire to become a game ranger grew deeper and stronger. However, a career as a game ranger was for a select few and I followed my other passion: medicine. After 5 years as a paramedic, I decided to leave South Africa and while I was waiting for everything to be finalised, I enrolled for a course, I thought, was to become an honour ranger. But unbeknown to me, I enrolled on a course to become a tour guide. And I loved it. Every single moment I was learning more about our beautiful Country and its rich history. I cancelled all my plans, did a 3-week tour of Europe and came back to complete my studies. That was over 25 years ago.
Today as an experienced destination specialist in over 22 African countries, I’m a Travel Agent who helps couples, small families, and multi-generational families create amazing memories and maximize their time together in scenic African destinations. I handle every last detail so that you don’t waste any time trying to compile itineraries that are tailored to everyone's desire, PLUS, you get the best possible rates. I have provided my clients with life-changing journeys in some of the most remote and pristine parts of the African continent as well as the Indian Ocean islands and I still enjoy putting the ultimate African Safari together for you and your family.

We believe that our business should be rooted in our community and the unique culture it has to offer. We strive to partner with local suppliers who are playing an active role in helping their communities by providing support services such as school supplies, healthcare, and adult education programs.
By sourcing from these suppliers, we're not only getting quality experiences for our customers, but also contributing directly to the well-being of those in need, and strengthening the local economy.
