About Mafhuwa Travels
Your trusted African travel partner since 2016 — born in South Africa, passionate about Africa.
Crafting Unforgettable African Experiences
Founded in Thohoyandou in 2016, Mafhuwa Travels was born out of a deep love for Africa and a desire to share its magic with the world. "Mafhuwa" means news or stories in Sepedi — because every journey we create becomes a story worth telling.
We specialise in authentic, meaningful travel experiences across Southern and East Africa — from the Big Five safari to the Indian Ocean beaches. Our team of consultants are seasoned travellers who've explored these destinations first-hand.
SATSA-accredited and fully bonded, we are committed to responsible, eco-conscious tourism that benefits local communities.
