Hello. I'm Benita, your local expert for South Africa

Active online: 8h ago

I specialise in Southern Africa journeys, with a passion for the Kruger region with a passion to curate immersive, unique travel experiences. Born in Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha) and raised in Johannesburg, I studied Tourism Management in Cape Town and then spent a few years along the beautiful Garden Route before settling in the Cape Winelands. These experiences shaped my love for travel, and travel planning became a natural part of my life, combining my love for exploring new destinations, travelling with family, and helping others experience Africa’s magic. When not crafting dream trips, I enjoy photography, baking, and upcycling furniture.
