Evelyn (Pinky) Ntombela | Africa Safari Architect "My greatest passion is bringing people's milestone moments to life. A safari isn't just a trip; it's a collection of 'once-in-a-lifetime' moments. I'm here to craft every single one of them for you." Hello, I'm Ethel Evelyn Ntombela, but my friends and clients know me as Pinky. My journey into the world of travel was fueled by a deep-seated passion for life's most precious events and the people who celebrate them. As a Safari Architect with Beyond Africa Safaris, I bring this passion to life by designing deeply personal and unforgettable journeys to Africa. My role is more than just a travel consultant; I am your personal advisor and advocate. I see my purpose as taking the complexity and stress out of planning, allowing you to focus purely on the excitement of the adventure ahead. From our first conversation to your return home with incredible memories, I manage every intricate detail to ensure a seamless experience. My Safari Philosophy I believe the most powerful travel experiences are born from connection—with nature, with new cultures, and with loved ones. My goal is to move beyond standard itineraries and create journeys that resonate with your unique dreams. For me, true luxury is a perfectly placed sundowner overlooking the savanna, the sound of a lion's roar from the comfort of a world-class lodge, or a private guide who shares an insightful story. It's these moments that transform a great holiday into a life-changing one. Why Journey with Me and Beyond Africa Safaris?
