Spending time with mountain gorillas is a profound experience. In Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park and Uganda’s Bwindi and Mgahinga National Parks, visitors can trek to see these incredible creatures, along with chimpanzees and golden monkeys. Both countries are clean and well-governed, and gorilla trekking pairs well with a safari in Tanzania or Kenya.

Annie's expertise (as a former ranger/guide), her passion for Africa and extensive travel knowledge made our trip truly unique. I have travelled and booked things on my own before but this trip, organized by Annie-our "boots on the ground" there, was so local, luxurious and authentic that it made it PERSONAL and so special for me and for all 50 of my guests! In amongst safaris, wine tastings, and luxury accommodations we got to experience visits with local communities and had the opportunity to "give back" to this amazing continent in a meaningful way. What Annie put together for us was indeed LIFE CHANGING. I could never have booked or executed this on my own. I can't recommend Breathe Africa strongly enough!!! If you want to travel in Africa in a personal, meaningful, and magical way- book with Breathe Africa!

"Imagine this, my 50th birthday with 50 of my friends from the US, Australia, UK, South Africa on safari in the African bush and touring Cape Town and the winelands for 10 days!"

Kim Barnes, Washington

From the moment we arrived at our beautifully designed and catered lodge inside Kruger National Preserve, we were immersed in the awe-inspiring scale of the wilderness. Guided by passionate and knowledgeable game guides, we were captivated by the close encounters with elephants, lions, leopards, rhinos, and countless other magnificent creatures. Witnessing such biodiversity across the stunning landscape was an exhilarating experience. What made this trip possible and special was all through Annie, who arranged everything flawlessly. Both Annie and her husband Scott live within the reserve and are deeply dedicated to wildlife education and conservation. For anyone considering booking a safari, first of all: What are you waiting for?!? Second: I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Breathe Africa Travel. Annie’s dedication to personalized service and long-standing relationships with a long list of lodges, paired with deep connections to the wildlife programs, will ensure you a unique and magical experience.

"This summer, we had the privilege of experiencing an unforgettable South Africa, meticulously arranged by Breathe Africa Travel. It was truly the trip of a lifetime."

ROBIN SHELDOn, FLORIDA

Her knowledge, respect and love for the many wild inhabitants of the Timbavati along with her adventurous soul inspired all six of us. What a great teacher! Not to mention what excellent company she is as a person.
On our second trip, two years later, to a different region, she drove eight hours to guide us again. Lee-Anne is “family” now. If you are considering a trip with Breathe Africa, I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

"My family’s first visit to Africa was the start of a continuing love story. We were lucky enough to have Lee-Anne Yammin as our guide"
