Terri co-founded Iconic Africa in 2013. The brand is a labour of love designed to entice global travellers to African destinations that have inspired her over a lifetime of journeying across this great continent.
THE ICONIC AFRICA TEAM
Tailor-madeIconic Africa has teams based in South Africa, Kenya and in the USA! We are African born travel experts and are always close at hand to prepare and guide you on each step on your journey. We have a deep love for Africa, its land, its wildlife and its people and we cannot wait to share this love with you!
Before we can do that though, here’s just a little snapshot of our team:
John Holley
John grew up in Africa. His fervour for conservation and travel was ignited by a childhood spent travelling to the continent’s wilderness hotspots. As a student John spent every minute he could in the wild – travelling and working as a horse safari guide in Kenya.
Jess Craig
Jess’s love of the bush came about early on; family adventures to the Greater Kruger National Park were where it all began. Her first word was “whiny” (a spotted hyena), and she learned to drive stick in a Land Rover Defender.
Danni Aldren
Danni was raised near the Kruger National Park. She grew to love the travel industry from an early age and dived into it straight out of school, where she built a career specifically within sales and marketing.
Mary Hensman
Mary grew up on a farm in Zimbabwe. Weekends were spent on the family game farm, at Kariba or Mana Pools, one of Africa’s wildest destinations. After school Mary spent her gap year in Kenya following the wildebeest migration on horseback. Life drew her to the high seas working on the Super Yachts for a number of years, but Africa’s call never died.
Tash Trollip
Tash was born and raised in the Kruger National Park; her love and passion for the bush was instilled from a young age.
Sophia Marais
Sophia grew up with the joys of family holidays exploring both the coastline of South Africa’s Western Cape and the Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve, which ignited her love for wildlife and nature at a young age, leading to her receiving a Bachelor’s Degree in Nature Conservation after school.
