John Mitchell-AdamsDestinations Africa was founded by John Mitchell-Adams after a lifetime involvement with Africa and its wild life. John grew up on a farm in south eastern Zimbabwe and his love of African wildlife and the bush was developed from a very early age. He spent much time in the bush and game reserves in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Mozambique, Zambia, Kenya and Botswana and although now living in Australia he has maintained his enthusiasm for the natural habitats of Southern Africa |

Hilary HoranHilary was introduced to Africa in 2003 and became enthralled with the place, its people and especially the wild life. She is an integral part of Destinations Africa and she uses her love of writing to add to the content of our Message Stick as well as much of the detail on the web site. As a Director she is a great sounding board for all the new destinations that we visit to determine whether or not they should be on our recommended list as she is able to see and experience the many places very much as our clients would. |
