GET TO KNOW HOLLY
Your expert in Luxury Wellness Travel, Holly, shares her story:
As an African Travel Specialist with many years of curating unforgettable adventures across the continent, wellness is an integrated part of my own lifestyle and I love to share this with my clients. A dedicated plant-based yogi of 12 years and having completed my Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India, I am a huge believer that everyone should take some time out of their busy lives and devote it to maintaining or enhancing one’s personal wellbeing. When I plan travel experiences for my guests, I want to create an overall feeling of wellness by focusing on the finer details such as clean eating options, farm-to-table restaurants, yoga with a spectacular view, fully equipped fitness centres, healthy snacks, personally curated activities, and even your favourite aroma therapy oil! Africa, as a wellness destination, has so much to offer and for me, the simple act of spending time in the ‘bush’ for a sunrise or sunset, listening to the birds and insects and reconnecting with nature is total bliss.
Whether you are wanting to maintain your healthy habits while you travel or take a trip to reset and create a new healthy routine, together we can design the perfect itinerary for all of your wellness needs.
