Wanderlust Safaris’ story began in February 2021 in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. The travel agents’ company is co-owned by directors who have been residing in the resort town as well as working within the tourism industry for over 20 years. The aspect of receiving and hosting people from all over the world sparked the idea to also venture into the industry in an aim to cater for different client tourism needs in a more efficient and quality-assured way.
Having been observing the industry for quite some time, the tourism and hospitality business became a passion. The company needed to create a source of employment that values employees and provides a conducive working environment for all. The idea was birthed in an effort to fix unemployment issues faced by the youth in Africa while at the same time bringing a solution to various tourists needs from all over the world who seek to travel to Africa.
The name Wanderlust, which means a strong desire or impulse to travel, greatly inspired the registration of the company, which happened in May 2021. The focus is on satisfying the craving for all those who have the desire to travel so that they can explore and experience the beauty of Africa to the fullest. Wanderlust Safaris takes off all the load of administration and itinerary from the traveller to ensure a full and stress-free experience.
Above all, the company is committed to telling the beautiful African story to all.
