MY EXPERTISE

It takes in-depth knowledge to fully understand the complexities of Africa and truly understand what is right for the traveler. My years of experience in the industry have taught me to identify the right journey for you and match you with the right properties to suit your travel style. Africa is my specialty, but if you tell me your dream vacation, I’ll find a way to get you there!

WHY I LOVE DESIGNING TRIPS

Travel to other countries teaches us to be humble, kinder, more understanding, resourceful, and offers a sense of community. Designing trips not only assures me that others can experience the deep change that occurs when one visits a new destination, but that the local communities, wildlife and ecosystem are sustained and protected.

MY MOST MEMORABLE TRAVEL MOMENT

It’s impossible to pinpoint only one memorable travel moment, as each time I travel, the experience expands my mind and my heart. From cultures to compassion, from gratitude to inspiration, from relationships to sustainability, travel breathes depth and life!

MY FAVORITE QUOTE

“Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.” -Miriam Beard

LOVE NOTES

“The combination of best-in-class accommodations, great food and wine, and nature culminated into a memorable trip. The guides were all top notch, having played a major role and contribution to the success of the trip. Susan Neva was exceptional with the pre-planning of the trip as well as helping us through a few hiccups during the trip. Meeting our expectations would have sufficed, but our expectations were exceeded, which was icing on the cake!” – Beth & Peter K.

“I usually don’t write reviews but I would want others to experience what we did! I went with Susan Neva. She was just great! She went above and beyond to make our trip perfect. I told her I was planning on getting engaged and she took it upon herself to make it even more special. I was nervous about doing this because a trip to Africa isn’t the same as a normal vacation within the states. She reassured me that all I had to do was get on the plane and everything would be taken care of. Let me say everything went perfect. We were more than happy to have dealt with Susan and Alluring Africa. Words can’t explain but it was the best trip ever! And all thanks to Susan and her extensive knowledge of Africa and listening to what we wanted to do and she made it happen!” – James A.
