Life is for living!
With twenty years of experience of visiting Africa, I have travelled many miles, carried out many exciting things, made many friends and shared some amazing wildlife encounters.
The aim of Amahle Africa is as it says in the name, to share adventures for the heart. 'Amahle' pronounced 'Ama-ha-clay' (with a Zulu click), means 'Beautiful' in Zulu, the only word I know to explain the mighty continent of Africa.
I hope to be able to offer you bespoke travel to Africa and hook you up with some excellent in-country travel organisations, nature guides and fabulous communities. I believe that the only way to see Africa is to share it with it's people, so I can ensure you that all travel is ethical, sustainable and offers you the most original immersive experience.
Afterall, Africa and her people deserve the best!
Services
I offer a range of bespoke travel packages, services tailored to meet your group or individual needs. My approach is focused on understanding and responding to what you require, providing effective and practical solutions whilst ensuring the local communities in Africa directly benefit from your travel.
Why South African wildlife?
One of my greatest wildlife encounters of all, was being lucky enough to be in the 'hunt' with seven African wild dogs and some bewildered impala who were carelessly crossing the road. This encounter took place at the mighty Kruger National Park in South Africa in Easter 2026, and after more than 20 trips to Africa, this was only the second time I have ever seen wild dogs. A memory to stay with me for life!
Kruger National Park
Kruger National Park is described as "the most iconic wildlife safari destination", which is not far wrong considering the park is almost 2 million hectares!
With 23 camps to stay in and lots of choice, Kruger is home to around 507 bird, 336 tree, 147 mammal, 114 reptile, 49 fish & 34 amphibian species!
There are many activities to do within Kruger including sunrise, day, sunset and night drives.
Which camp/s should I stay at?
Having visited many parts of Kruger, my personal favourites are Crocodile Bridge in the south east, Olifants in the middle & Satara, named the camp, in the mid-east.
All camps can be booked online and as such, offer different rates per accommodation style, boarding & facilities.
If you are interested, get in touch so we can talk about your own likes.
What route?
With some nice economical flights' from Johannesburg to Kruger, you can fly in and either hire a car to self-drive or request a transfer from your lodge/accommodation.
Self-drive is very easy with easy to do car hire that can meet you when you land (or before entering the gates) or one you can pick up from inside Kruger, at Skukuza, the 'capital' of Kruger.

One of the old African proverb says:

and the great Nelson Mandela said :
"It is in your hands to create a better world for all who live in it."
Live and love!
