Cate has spent the last few years living in South Africa, inspired by visits from an early age, and a love of South African conservation and culture. After a first degree at Durham University she undertook a second degree in Wildlife Management at the University of Pretoria. This led to work at a variety of game reserves and lodges, giving her a unique insight into the needs of visiting travellers. Return visits with Audley have allowed her to indulge her passion for South Africa and to become a font of knowledge on all aspects of visiting this wonderful country. As well as work, wildlife and travelling Cate enjoys playing hockey. Melissa is a South African, spending the whole of her life in the country until her recent move to England. After graduating she worked as a flight attendant which gave the perfect opportunity to travel South Africa extensively. Her knowledge of South Africa was further boosted by working for a travel agent and subsequently for a tour operator in Johannesburg. Since leaving for the UK, her love and passion for her mother country have taken her back frequently, particularly to the bush and the beaches, two of her favourite aspects of life in South Africa.
