plane South Africa

April 5, 2025

I traveled alone as a woman in Africa, but I was able to travel safely and smoothly!

As part of refreshing myself before starting my job search, I chose Africa as my travel destination. Since there wasn't much information and I was concerned about safety, I asked for a plan here. There were plenty of wonderful activities, and even when there were issues like my late arrival on the first day, they responded immediately, which was very reassuring. Thank you so much!

The guide was absolutely amazing!!!

Above all, our guide Moses was truly wonderful. He quickly understood our level of English, explained things and conversed in a way that was easy to understand, and was always considerate.
He was truly an outstanding and capable guide. He answered all our questions in detail, and together we enjoyed beautiful scenery, amazing experiences, and delicious food. It became an unforgettable trip for both my son and me.
I am truly grateful.

A very satisfying trip

I was able to have so many valuable experiences, and it turned out to be a truly satisfying trip.
All the guides arranged for us were very kind.
The hotel was also very comfortable and satisfying.

Everyone, from the airport transfer staff to the local guides, was kind and helpful.
In Zimbabwe, it seems there was a mistake with our hotel information, so the driver picking us up was late, but it didn't have any major impact.
Thank you very much.

    Travel is a chance for healing, learning, discovery, challenge, and self-reflection.
    I believe it's the moment when you can truly be yourself. Let's go out and discover ourselves in this vast world we have yet to know.
    Since I was little, I've loved nature and animals—climbing trees and feeding stray dogs—so I'm truly happy to be working in Africa!
    Africa is truly a real-life 'National Geographic' world. Let me help you create a simple yet luxurious journey you'll never forget!
