ABOUT US – Intrepid Odyssey staff

About Us

Our mission, put simply, is to create positive life changing shared experiences.

We do this by carefully crafting itineraries which progressively reveal all that Africa has to offer in the most impactful way. We believe that private safaris and activities support our mission by allowing small groups of families and friends to have extraordinary shared experiences. We use high-end homes as a means to deliver privacy, security and freedom to safely discover wildlife on your own. We feel that all of these things are essential to accomplishing our mission.

Our team is proudly composed of local talent, driven to exceed your expectations. At the center, is your Private Guide and experience coordinator, Jaco Becker. Jaco is widely recognised as one of the most revered private guides in all of South Africa, and he is here to warmly welcome you and ensure that your African journey leaves you with memories that will last a lifetime.
