Summary
I founded Destinations Africa after a lifetime involvement with Africa and its wild life. I arrange personalised wildlife safaris to Africa. I grew up on a farm in south eastern Zimbabwe and my love of African wildlife and the bush was developed from a very early age. I spent much time in the bush and game reserves in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Mozambique, Zambia, Kenya and Botswana and although now living in Australia I have maintained my enthusiasm for the natural habitats of Southern Africa. I have Africa in my soul and speak Shona (a Zimbabwean African language) fluently. I will give of my experience and share my enthusiasm when accompanying group safaris to African wild life areas as well as giving first hand guidance on where to visit to individuals and families. I have long since relegated my former business interests in favour of committing my time to following my dream of introducing my clients to the magic of Africa. Destinations Africa’s focus is on delivering only the very best in personalised services to wild life destinations that have all been vetted personally. Client safety, comfort, care and a promise of a trip that will inject the excitement and mystery of Africa and its people into the heart and soul of our clients, is the uncompromising core to Destinations Africa philosophy. Let me introduce you to this wonderful untamed land, its rich heritage and warm friendly people. Join me as we witness the lion reign over his territory, the meerkats ferret for their insect breakfast and the impala glide through the air. We will move soundlessly in a makoro, through the tranquillity of the Water Lillies and hear the call of Africa as the Fish Eagle cries. We will bring the animals of Discovery and Animal Planet and “Things to Try Before you Die”, truly to life. Specialties: Safari leader/guide. African specialist. Widely experienced in wild life locations in Africa. In depth personal knowledge of game lodges, activities and adventures in this region.
