James Macdonald

FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

With nearly 15 years’ experience working and living in the South African wilderness, James more than knows the luxury Africa safari tour business - he lived it. 

​

His love for his home coupled with his passion for revealing the transformative power of the African bush inspires the life-changing journeys he creates for every client. 

​

Born and raised in the small town of Henley-On-Klip located about 50 miles south of Johannesburg, James has had a love, curiosity, and passion for the bush and South African wildlife since an early age. Pursuing these passions by studying nature conservation to become a certified Field Guide, also known as a “Game Ranger” or “Safari Guide,” James trained in the wildest of reserves in South Africa. 

​

Not only does James have a personal relationship with most of the lodges recommended, but he has worked at many, which makes his itineraries truly special.  

​

As your guide, James would like to welcome you to the Find Your Africa family and looks forward to working with you, so that your African dreams become your reality.
