Meet Our Team

Alison van Deventer

CEO

I was born in the UK, but fell in love with South Africa and moved here in my early twenties. After many wonderful years in the industry, I co-founded & eventually sold BushBreaks. Having this previous experience means that I have built solid relationships with the properties we promote. I am privileged & excited to be working with our amazing team at Your Perfect Africa.

After completing my undergraduate degree in Marketing & Honours Degree in Strategic Brand Management, I jumped into the world of travel. It has been a whirl wind experience but I am learning so much every day! Your Perfect Africa is a beautiful brand I am so fortunate to be a part of.

Having studied international travel, I couldn’t wait to get involved in our South African tourism industry. Over the years, experiencing our local game lodges, my love for the bush has grown tremendously! It is such a pleasure to share my passion with our clients at Your Perfect Africa.

Philippa Hardwick

Senior Travel Specialist

Having been raised in Zimbabwe within a family committed to conservation, I had the privilege of extensively exploring the National Parks of Southern Africa during my formative years. Following numerous years of global travel, I subsequently aligned my professional trajectory with a prominent Travel Company in the United Kingdom specialising in African travel. Today, after 33 years in the industry, my unwavering commitment to and passion for Africa persists.
