Sossusvlei
In the heart of the Namib-Naukluft Park, surrounded by a sea of ever-changing dunes lies Sossusvlei – a place of awe-inspiring beauty and home to some pretty spectacular scenery.
Burnt orange dunes tower into the vast blue sky, some 300 metres above the desert floor. It’s hard not to be moved by this desolate wilderness.
Scenic air and hot air balloon flights, sunset game drives, hiking trips, horseback trails and more await; and for those with an added sense of adventure, climbing the dunes is an unforgettable experience.

Jackie Devereux
I was born in Zimbabwe. With a dad who was in the police force, we moved from place to place. I have always been passionate about travel. My grandparents mentioned that our ancestors set off from the Horn of Africa – Ethiopia – looking for better cattle pastures. They ended up settling in the south-eastern hills of Zimbabwe, in the Great Zimbabwe area. Talk with our experts

Illona Cross
Born in a small South African town, I have always followed my passion for nature and discovery. After studying Nature Conservation in Pretoria, I was one of the first women to complete a very tough cadetship in the Natal Parks Board. It was here where I cut my teeth in African wildlife management. My desire to see more led me to work as a guide for AndBeyond, first in South Africa, then in Tanzania as the company expanded. Here, I lived and worked in the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro, guiding and running safari camps. Talk with our experts

Aged five and with my Curious George toy safely tucked under my arm, I set off with my family to travel around Europe in an orange VW minibus. Looking back on the adventures we had along the way, I now know that this was where my love for travel and exploring began. Talk with our experts
