Andreas was born and grew up on a very remote farm in Namibia, studied and lived in South Africa and then immigrated to New Zealand in 1986. He is a very proud New Zealander.
Andreas has travelled extensively to every corner of New Zealand and also to many interesting places around the world. His roots are still in Southern Africa which he and his family visit every few years to spend time with family and to explore the countries.
He is passionate about travelling and creating interesting and fun experiences for people.
“Andreas has such a lot of local knowledge and passion for Southern Africa and really wanted us to share in his homelands with a great introduction to the land, the culture and best of all, the people. These experiences would not have been possible sitting on board a tourist bus.
Andreas’s knowledge and passion for the country, the people and the animals was very infectious and added that extra dimension commonly missing for the tourist. We saw things in perspective and learned a tremendous amount about the culture and history of the people, the geology and the animals. We saw things through Andreas’s eyes rather than a tourist brochure and it all had much more meaning to us.”
