Vanessa is the (almost) silver-haired founder of Southern Destinations (1996) and keeps a quiet and proud eye on operations, marketing and Social Media activities. She manages our CRM efforts and keeps abreast with new tourism products and industry gossip! A passionate ambassador for everything South African, she claims that when she retires, she’s going to go back to being a freelance tour guide. She and her family spend about 5 weeks of the year in France, all the while planning trips to Botswana, Kruger and KwaZulu Natal.
