Meet Jeffi
Your Travel Planner
I began a career in travel after college. During my 20's I worked as a crew member on an 87-meter passenger boat and sailed along the coast of Alaska through the Panama Canal, up the Amazon River and across the Drake Passage to Antarctica. As an international Travel Director, I led groups on cultural, natural history and wildlife viewing tours to over 50 countries and all seven continents. From my many opportunities to safari it is clear that I am wholly bitten by the 'Africa Bug' but have been designing, planning and organizing luxury itineraries worldwide for two decades-- resulting in many happy globetrotters.
I enjoy painting a picture for travelers in the same way one was painted for me as a kid. I specialize in the research, design and logistics of your trip and enjoy matching the right destination and experience to your preferences.
I look forward to organizing either your well-deserved stay-cation or an unforgettable 'trip of a lifetime'.

TESTIMONIALS
Planning a trip is a lot of the fun of the entire travel experience. And when a kind soul is nothing less than very helpful, encouraging, energized, knowledgeable and responsive, the planning is so much more positive, enjoyable and rewarding. It makes the whole endeavor soooooo much better...and complete. Jeffi did all that and more for us. Thank you for all of your graciousness and kindness.

Jeffi handled all of the details of our safari with expertise and ease. We felt very comfortable leaving all of the minutia to her and our trip to South Africa and Botswana was a dream! Can't wait to go back.
