Lynn Middelmann is proud to be a key part of the vibrant team at African Safari Excellence (ASE), where she holds the position of General Manager. Born and raised in the heart of the Great Karoo, in Graaff Reinet, Lynn has always been a farm girl at her core. Her formative years were spent in the Hex River Valley, immersed in the day-to-day life of a table grape farm. While she pursued an academic path in Business Management, her entry into the tourism industry was as unexpected as it was fateful. Despite a brief detour into a different career path during the challenges brought on by the pandemic, Lynn's 14 years of experience and her deep-seated passion for travel and tourism eventually guided her back to the industry she loves.

Lynn sees her journey with African Safari Excellence as more than just a career—it is a conscious choice. The opportunity to unveil the unparalleled wonders of Africa to the world is what excites her the most. She is driven daily by the belief that tourism is not merely about creating unforgettable experiences but also about fostering a greater understanding and appreciation for the continent's diverse and magnificent cultures and landscapes. Lynn finds the pristine beauty of places like the Bazaruto Archipelago in Mozambique and the landscapes of Tanzania particularly captivating, with their azure waters, powdery beaches, and rich cultural tapestry.

Through her extensive travels across Southern and Eastern Africa, Lynn has gathered countless memorable experiences. However, it is the overwhelming sense of awe and tranquility she feels for Tanzania's natural beauty that stands out the most. Whether it is the majestic wildlife encounters or the warmth of the local communities, each visit leaves an indelible mark on her soul. She is continually drawn back, time and again, to experience the pure contentment and peace that, in her view, only Africa can offer.
