French-speaking South Africa travel designer. I craft bespoke journeys shaped around your wishes and tailored to your budget, from first conversation to the last day.
Bespoke South African Travel
Every bespoke South Africa journey I design begins with a conversation, not a catalogue. Together we build a tailor-made itinerary that belongs entirely to you: the right pace, the right places, the right people around you.
South African, French-speaking, deeply rooted in my origins. Your single point of contact from first conversation to last day.
Together we map your route based on your wishes and budget, from scratch, step by step.
I respond directly, for both the big hiccups and the small ones.
All communication is entirely in French.
My itineraries and experiences are rooted in my South African story. You'll also get to meet my local contacts on the ground.
From booking your domestic flights to accommodation and car hire, every detail covered.
An app that accompanies you throughout your trip, with your personalised itinerary and essential information, even offline.
After more than twenty years living in France, I have developed a deep understanding of what French and European travellers look for: refinement, authenticity, and the feeling that a journey was designed specifically for them. That is precisely what I offer.

We entrusted Mary-Lou with organizing our South Africa trip. It was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Everything was perfectly planned: expert advice, personalized recommendations, and truly exceptional support. The trip was rich in discoveries, seamlessly organized, and we felt completely safe throughout. An extraordinary family journey we recommend wholeheartedly.
We travelled with Mary-Lou, everything was perfect. She listens carefully and adapted this magnificent trip to our expectations. She knows all the best spots in every corner of South Africa and will guide you or give you all the advice needed for a successful trip. Go for it with your eyes closed. Thank you for all these wonderful moments.
My husband and I entrusted our trip to Mary-Lou. She is an extraordinary person, attentive, she understood exactly what we wanted. We discovered a magnificent country. The people are very welcoming, the food is excellent and varied. Everything was perfectly organised. You can book your next trip with eyes closed with My African Routes. Thank you again Mary-Lou.
