The Experience

Love Your Journey offers women a range of experiences that nurture, nourish and rejuvenate

senses and soul.

​

Offering Creative Retreats, Shortbreak Getaways, Adventure Travel, Wellness and Rejuvenation ...

and our  ONLINE LOVE YOUR JOURNEY EVENT

 which are designed to speak to a womans heart.

​

Spending time in spaciousness allows an unfolding within.   Combined with elements of ancient culture, adventure and connection, you'll rest and rejuvenate with ease.  

​

This is the heartbeat of what we offer ... the opportunity to fall more in love ... with your Journey.

​

In the spaces of wilderness, flavours of culture, good company and the excitement of adventure ...  we find the freedom to "be" and to "become".

And that is a gift.

  So come as you are ... 

​

​

​

Words cannot describe how the wilderness will speak to you. 

She'll write a personal message across your heart in a language only YOU understand. 

This place will change you forever. 

Our visit starts on the Wild Coast where we "Homestay" with local families.

Understanding the land through her people will prepare us to walk respectfully into the sanctuary of the wilderness.  Imfolozi is home to the Big 5, and promises to deliver the ultimate wilderness adventure.  

A "Just Do It" experience.

This morning you will Walk into the Wilderness.   Our Lead Guide Zhondi is a proud Zulu man who has walked this land for many years.  I trust him implicitly to guide us with total integrity and safety.    He is an expert tracker, very passionate about this special place.   His skill and expertise will provide us with many opportunities to get up close to the wildlife here.   Zhondi has an intimiate love of this land and to experience his heart for this place just makes the journey that much more powerful.  It is such an honour to walk with him.
