Natalee, your local expert in South Africa.
Born and raised in South Africa, Natalee spent her youth along the Garden Route in the Western Cape. But the bush is where her heart is. No matter how many times she does a safari, that is when she feels the most invigorated. From the smell to the adventure—the excitement and even the frustration of missing out on a sighting. You'll find her in the bush. Natalee's time in the travel industry stretches across 30 years, which means few know more about visiting the sun-drenched land of South Africa. And ten years ago, when she teamed up with our other expert Angela to begin their award-winning agency, they changed the face of South African tourism. These two industry veterans have the best relationships in the business, and it is safe to say there is nothing these two can’t do. We guarantee a trip with these boundary-pushing travel experts will rock your world.
