Bianca Smith
Team Leader: Luxury Safaris Reservations
Bianca’s stellar report card as one of our top tour guides is eclipsed only by her consulting efficiency. She has worked in almost every part of the business, and her current duties include team leader for Luxury Safaris, HR and she still gets time to do the banking. Favourite spots for a luxury getaway: Grootbos and Narina Lodge, Lion Sands.
Imogen McCormick-Matthews
Kruger, Vic Falls, Eastern Cape Safari, Namibia
Imogen is only half South African, the other half English. She is half bush baby, the other half city slicker. She is, however, wholly committed to providing amazing client service and creating tours that maximize the best of the bush coupled with the Cape Town experience. Her time at Kariega private game reserve made her a valuable asset to enhance the already legendary Luxury Safaris consulting team. Not afraid to go for a walk in the middle of the Kruger.
Monade van Eeden
Kruger, Vic Falls, Garden Route
Monade brings extensive hospitality experience to the Luxury Safaris team, as she ran a boutique guest house before joining us. She loves arranging staff breakaways to glamorous destinations, and her attention to detail has made her invaluable to the business. Favourite part of the job: making up treats for our clients to receive on arrival.
Caren Rossouw
Sabi Sands, Sanbona Safari, Long Stay and Groups
Caren’s quiver of arrows includes an impeccable work ethic, a naturally caring nature and an ageless grace that has delighted her clients since she joined Luxury Safaris in 2014. Caren loves investigating and exploring new destinations, and relishes the challenge of an exotic request.
Michelle Stanvliet
Garden Route, Eastern Cape Safari, Botswana
Michelle has been there done that. Whether it be holidays in Bali, corporate adventures in Kazakhstan, or migrations in the Serengeti, she has assisted clients with either the dream holiday or their nightmare corporate gig since the turn of the century. Raising the kids has been her biggest challenge. This lady knows her stuff. Happy to have her in the fold at Luxury Safaris!
Richard Tuswa
Tour Guide
Richard’s thoughtful introduction to his hometown of Langa has been wowing our guests for years. He has conquered some major obstacles to be one of our trusted allrounders.
When Richard isn’t on tour with us he spends as much time as possible with his family, and in particular the apple of his eye – his daughter!
Jarred Vosges
Tour Guide
Jarred has been racking up rave reviews on Tripadvisor ever since he joined the team in 2014 with his sunny personality and natural charm.
He has an amazing knowledge of flora and fauna, courtesy of many years spent as a safari guide at one of the top reserves on the Garden Route. He also knows his way around the winelands pretty well…
