I fell in love with South Africa and moved here from Germany about 6 years ago. I call Cape Town home ever since. I have travelled the country significantly, from the Garden Route to the Greater Kruger and Johannesburg, to Pilanesberg and Madikwe. But it is in KwaZulu-Natal where I found some of my favourite spots. The Maputaland area of KwaZulu-Natal stands out the most for me. The area is still very much untouched and off the beaten track with absolutely spectacular beaches and the friendliest locals you will ever meet!

I am a Cape Town girl and absolutely love this city! I have lived in other parts of the world, but nothing beats Cape Town. I wouldn’t choose to live anywhere else. I have been lucky enough to visit a few places in Southern Africa so far and my favourite place is the Okavango Delta in Botswana. You really can’t beat the peacefulness of this area. The local food is delicious, game viewing is amazing and the scenery is even better. The people of Botswana are super friendly and really treat everyone like a family member.

I am a born and bred Capetonian. When I am not in the office, I can often be found out and about enjoying the outdoors, spending time on the beach, in the gym or along the Sea Point Promenade. I studied travel and tourism after school and I have been in the industry for over 12 years. My favorite place in South Africa is definitely the Kruger National Park. There is nothing like the tranquility of the bushveld.

My heart belongs to the Mother City as this is where I was born and raised, but I am always eager to explore and experience other Southern African destinations, especially if an exciting activity awaits! One of my favourite spots is the Storms River Mouth along the Garden Route; the unspoilt scenery is absolutely amazing. I love doing what I do as I have the opportunity to give the rest of the world a glimpse into our beautiful continent.

I am a born South African with German heritage and have a deep interest in Africa’s places and people. As a child our family trips took us to some amazing places such as the Kruger National Park, St Lucia and Wild Coast. After moving to Cape Town in 2010 I started exploring the Garden Route and West Coast, discovering the gems of these regions. I love this country I live in and my passion is to bring an authentic South African experience to all our visitors.

I grew up in Germany and loved travelling my whole life. I’ve always been intrigued by the beauty of Africa, but it was during my visit to Kenya at the age of 18 that I fell in love with the African continent. My life path led me back to Africa and Cape Town has been home for many years. Throughout the years I got to discover many of the South Africa gems. It is the Panorama Route with breathtaking views which I find most fascinating..

I am a proud Capetonian, growing up in Mitchell’s Plain. One of the places I most like visiting in the Mother City is the iconic Table Mountain, one of the 7 Wonders of Nature, offering breath-taking views of the city. I enjoy working with people and those that work alongside me know that I am hard-working and passionate about what I do.

I am originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo, but I grew up in Cape Town where I studied Tourism and gained valuable experience within the travel industry. What I like most about South Africa is its mix of epic landscapes, vibrant cultures and myriad of interesting traditions—making each day in Africa a unique one! I love my job because I get to see so much of Southern Africa, meet many different people and giving our guests a holiday experience of a lifetime.

How lucky am I to have been born and raised in a city as beautiful as Cape Town? I am from a small community known as Ocean View where unity and growth mean everything. My love for the tourism industry began in High School.  It was really the only subject that could get my full, undivided attention! I then completed my studies in Tourism Management. I absolutely love being outdoors. I often spend hot summer days swimming in the cool waters of Fish Hoek beach. It brings me great joy to be part of an industry that promotes the cultures and wonders of this country.

As a nature enthusiast and keen extreme sports and outdoor activities person, Cape Town has been the ideal place for me to grow up in. We have a great choice of  activities right on our doorstep! But when venturing further afield, it is the Eastern Cape’s extensive beauty which draws me. The Addo National Park is one of my favourite parks to visit, so easily accessible and with it being malaria-free, it is ideal for the whole family!

I am from the Eastern Cape, but I grew up in Gauteng Province. I have always wanted to explore the dazzled daily by the mountains and the sea, so I decided to Move to Cape Town for my Tertiary Studies in Tourism and Events Management. Taking a drive down Chapman's Peak to get a view of both the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean is my favourite thing to do, we’re spoiled by the bounty that the earth has granted us, what I love about Cape Town is its Diversity and I have learned so much about other people’s culture and Values.

I come from the Eastern Cape province of South Africa and enjoy outdoor activities. One of my favourite excursions along the Garden Route is the Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour, it is so much fun! Bloubergstrand, just outside of Cape Town city centre, offers postcard perfect views of Table Mountain and great for a beach walk. For shopping, I enjoy a visit to the V&A Waterfront, there is plenty to do and plenty to see, whether you are looking for a nice restaurant, some retail therapy or an exciting activity.
