About Us

Janine Krook: My love of the African wilderness began as a child during my yearly visits to the Kruger Park with my family. I realised then how lucky we are as Africans to be able to experience wildlife roaming free in their natural environment. I promised myself that I would always share my passion with others to ensure that our wildlife, and the environment in which it existed, is always conserved. After spending years abroad in my early twenties, working and travelling in Asia, Europe, the UK, Australia and New Zealand, I returned to South Africa, my home. Apart from doing what I love everyday – sharing my passion for Africa by creating unforgettable journeys for my travellers - I also spend my time travelling and experiencing all of the amazing things this country, and this continent, have to offer: the mountains, beaches, wildlife reserves and more. Combined with my extensive knowledge and experience, I look forward to creating the perfect journey for you.

“I travel through Africa not to go anywhere in particular, but to explore our vast and beautiful continent. And to experience all that it can offer me. "

Debbie Blake: My first memory of the bush was of the day when my dad took my sister and I to pick up his 'Big Green' landrover and we drove to our new holiday cottage in Ntsiri, which is situated on the border of the Kruger National Park. The fun and excitement I felt as we rode in the open air vehicle was just the beginning of my many African adventures that lay ahead! Every holiday we spent in the Kruger was a new experience - the wildlife we saw and the enjoyment we got from spending time in the ‘bush’ turned into stories we told our friends year after year. My love for the ocean and the countless holidays we spent visiting some of South Africa’s best beach destinations made me passionate about this country and its awesome beauty. After living in London for 5 years I decided to return home to South Africa. I took the long route back on an unforgettable overland trip through Africa seeing untouched landscapes and animal life many would dream to see.
