Jackie Devereux – Founder
Born in Zimbabwe, travel has always been part of who I am. My ancestors first travelled from North Africa in search of greener pastures in southern Africa, and due to the nature of my father’s job, we regularly travelled across Africa and were consistently on a journey of discovery. Memories from my childhood include exploring the Lake Kariba islands, seeing elephants at Hwange and travelling on a chicken bus with my mother and chasing baboons with my siblings.
I have been in the travel industry since the 1990s and have had the privilege to work for some of the UK’s luxury tour operators including Steppes Travel. I have climbed Kilimanjaro, canoed the Zambezi, paraglided over Victoria Falls and flown over the incredible Skeleton Coast. A few years ago I was also awarded and recognised as one of Conde Nast’s 2020 Top Travel Specialists.
