Based In Somerset West
Hi, I'm Claire and I'm based in Somerset West. I've grown up travelling since the tender age of 6 weeks old, both with my family and solo. Most of my best memories involve some aspect of travel and this has always fuelled my passion of helping others craft their memorable travel journeys. I absolutely love assisting my clients to put together truly memorable and personalised itineraries so that they too can craft their own spectacular travel stories for their memory bank.
I approach each itinerary as a unique opportunity to create something remarkable. My passion lies in understanding what makes an ideal travel experience special, then bringing those elements together seamlessly. Whether you're dreaming of a sun-soaked beach retreat, an adventurous exploration of ancient ruins, or a cultural immersion in a vibrant city, your journey receives my complete attention to detail.
What truly sets my service apart is the personal connection. I believe that the best travel experiences reflect the travellers themselves - their interests, preferences and dreams. By taking the time to understand what matters most to you, I can design experiences that resonate on a deeper level. This isn't about standard packages or one-size-fits-all solutions; it's about crafting moments that become cherished memories.
Some of my favourite travel memories include ballooning above the ancient Sossusvlei desert, dining in underground limestone caves in the wine-region around Saumur in France, exploring the colourful markets of Dar es Salaam and winding my way through exceptional scenery on some of the best train journeys across Europe. Still on my bucket list is a horse-riding safari through the Okavango Delta, the epic 15 day rail journey from Cape Town to Dar es Salaam, trail-riding in the Rocky Mountains and seeing the Aurora Borealis in Finland.
Nothing brings me greater satisfaction than hearing your stories upon your return - the sunset that took your breath away, the unexpected encounter that became a highlight, or the perfect meal that truly captured the essence of a destination.These stories fuel my passion for all things travel related and remind me why creating these experiences matters.
Your journey begins long before you board a plane. It starts the moment we connect to transform your travel aspirations into thoughtfully designed reality. Let me handle the intricate details while you focus on the excitement of anticipation and, ultimately, the joy of discovery. Let me help you create your next travel story.

There’s a certain kind of magic that only a tented safari camp can offer. It’s that beautiful in-between — where luxury meets wilderness, and your morning soundtrack is a lilting dawn chorus rather than an alarm clock. If you’ve ever dreamed of falling asleep to the distant whoop of a hyena or sipping your coffee as the first light spills across the savannah, a tented camp might just be your perfe

I recently created a complex itinerary for clients wanting to travel through as much of Spain and Portugal as possible while still enjoying enough downtime between stops to hike, explore and discover local culture. This itinerary was the result. For travellers seeking the ultimate Iberian road trip, this 31-day itinerary through Spain and Portugal offers a perfect blend of culture, coastlines,

2025 has been a year of curved balls and the latest one nearly sent some very carefully laid family travel plans awry but in the end, the much anticipated trip was semi salvaged by converting it to a mommy-daughter holiday. And it was unexpectedly amazing! All my apprehensions around travelling solo through Kruger and parts of Mpumalanga with a 6 year old were for nothing and the hospitality we ex

Travel these days has transformed from sightseeing to scene-making with almost every traveller becoming their own travel documentary producer. With more and more prospective travellers turning to social media for inspiration, the demand for Instagram-worthy destinations has exploded. But today's savvy tourists want more than just a pretty photo—they're also seeking authenticity within the aestheti

Victoria Falls, locally known as "Mosi-oa-Tunya" (The Smoke That Thunders), stands as one of the world's most spectacular natural wonders. Straddling the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, this magnificent waterfall offers visitors an unforgettable experience, so it's not surprising that so many people have added it to their travel bucket list. Having recently completed a visit to Vic Falls (my t

There's something about Namibia that defies ordinary description – a place where vastness becomes intimate and silence speaks volumes. Born between its desert and the chilly Atlantic, I've always defined it as "soul country" to curious travelers. This ancient land doesn't merely host visitors; it seeps into your essence, nourishing something deep within. My recent journey through southern Namibia
