Business Partner-Asian Pacific
Princess Parreno Yiga
As an Asian Pacific Islander, traveling to Africa for the first time was always a big challenge, from organising the trip itself to the imagination of 8000+miles away from home. However you realize that it doesn’t have to be that way especially when you deal with the right people and a spot on Safaris. At Meraki Africa Safaris we get you closer to that dream, my key role is to craft itineraries that create everlasting memories clearing out the worries of travel between Africa, Asia and beyond. From the wild animal migration of Serengeti and Masai Mara, the chimps, mountain gorillas and baboons of Bwindi, the climbing lions of Queen Elizabeth and roaring the falls of Murchison, I work with you to witness some of the breathtaking encounters of Africa and as well explore the natural beauties, food and cultures of Asian Pacific, skyscrapers and fast moving societies of the Orlean seas and beyond……
