If our approach resonates, we would welcome an initial conversation.

These discussions are exploratory and obligation-free, simply an opportunity to understand whether there is alignment, and how we might work together.

Our Team

Reborn in Africa is led by people who understand that heritage travel is not transactional, but personal. Each journey we design carries emotional weight, historical depth, and cultural responsibility. Our team brings together strategic oversight, partnership intelligence, and on-the-ground expertise across West and Central Africa to ensure every experience is handled with care and context.

From founder vision to country-level coordination, we operate as a connected network rather than a distant operator. Our Partnership Manager works closely with travel advisors and collaborators, while our Country Managers bring lived knowledge, trusted relationships, and operational precision within their respective destinations. This structure allows us to move thoughtfully and confidently across borders while maintaining cultural integrity at every stage.

Together, we are united by one principle: reconnection journeys deserve seriousness, sensitivity, and excellence in execution. Behind every itinerary is a team that understands what is at stake, and honours it accordingly.

FAQs - Travel Professionals & Organisations

Who do you typically work with?

We work with travel advisors, tour operators, organisations, and group leaders whose audiences are interested in heritage-, culture-, and purpose-led travel. Our partners are based in the UK, the US, and internationally.

Do you work with US-based partners?

Yes. We regularly collaborate with US-based organisations and travel professionals, particularly those serving diaspora, cultural, faith-based, or special-interest audiences.

Are your programmes off-the-shelf or bespoke?

All programmes are designed in response to the specific needs, context, and audience of our partners. While we may draw from established themes or regions, every journey is shaped collaboratively.

Do you operate behind the scenes or as a named partner?

Both. Depending on the partnership, we can work in a white-label capacity, co-branded arrangement, or as a visible delivery partner.

What group sizes do you support?

Group sizes vary depending on destination, theme, and objectives. We typically support small to mid-sized groups and will advise on what works best for each programme.

What happens after an initial enquiry?

Initial conversations are exploratory and obligation-free. If there is alignment, we will discuss scope, timelines, and how best to work together.

How far in advance should we engage you?

We recommend engaging us as early as possible, particularly for group travel. This allows time for creative design, availability checks, scenario planning and alignment on expectations.

Are your journeys suitable for faith-based or heritage groups?

Yes. Many of our partnerships involve faith-based, cultural, or heritage-focused organisations. We approach such programmes with sensitivity, respect, and careful contextual grounding.
