Summary

Meet Camille

Consultant

Camille has a memory like an elephant for details such as which hotel rooms have the best views, and which lodges have private safari vehicles and the prettiest plunge pools. She goes to extraordinary lengths to ensure her clients get great value, instagrammable photo opportunities and have the most memorable experiences possible. She has a critical eye for detail and thrives on being highly organized. Born and bred in Zambia makes her our obvious Zambia expert. An energetic mother of two, Camille is equally comfortable in (very) high heels dining out in Cape Town as she is in running shoes training for a marathon.
