How It Works

Booking with me costs no more than booking direct.

I do all the hard work for you, open doors to experiences you can't book online, and stay on call 24/7 while you're on the ground. Here's exactly how it works.

From first conversation to wheels up.


  1. 01
    Step 01

    Get in touch

    Book a free consultation call or send an email. I'll find out about your family, what everyone loves, your style of travel, the trip you have in mind and budget.

  2. 02
    Step 02

    Your Journey Proposal

    Based on your preferences, I'll send a Journey Proposal within a few days — an outline itinerary with a quote, which I fine-tune with you until you're completely happy. I don't book international flights, but I do book local flights within Africa.

  3. 03
    Step 03

    Deposit & confirmation

    I take a deposit, confirm the trip, and make all the bookings — assembling every element of your journey into your digital Journey Book. All payments are made securely and in your local currency.

  4. 04
    Step 04

    60 days before you fly

    I ask for your balance payment and send your pre-departure information — including a packing list and everything else that's useful before you go. All payments are made securely and in your local currency.

  5. 05
    Step 05

    Your custom trip app

    You'll have a custom app with your full itinerary and travel information for the trip. I'm certain everything will run smoothly — but if it doesn't, I'm on hand throughout your journey.

No mark-up

Booking through me costs no more than going direct.

Off-menu access

Experiences and camps you can't book online.

24/7 on the ground

I'm on call throughout your journey, every day.

Tell me about your family — ages, dates, what excites everyone — and I'll come back with honest advice, a rough shape for the trip, and an idea of budget. No obligation. No pressure.
