MEET THE FOUNDER

Hi, I’m Helen!

In 2009, I set off on a six-month solo adventure through Africa, with no idea just how much it would change my life. I fell in love with the continent, its people, cultures, wildlife and the incredible experiences I had along the way.

I founded Rock My Adventure in 2016 because I wanted to share that love of Africa and help others experience the magic of travelling here, bringing together like-minded people for unforgettable adventures.

Since that first trip, I’ve explored 19 African countries, led more than 55 group adventures, organised countless private trips and made lifelong friends along the way. And the best part? I now get to help other people do the same!

When I’m not leading tours, you’ll usually find me scouting new destinations, catching up with old friends across Africa, researching unique experiences or sharing my adventures through my travel blog, Helen in Wonderlust.

What Our Travellers Say

Don’t just take our word for it – here’s what some of our travellers have to say about their Rock My Adventure experience.

“Without a doubt the best group tour I’ve ever been on.”

“This trip was magical because of the people on it, not simply the places we visited. Tough to outshine Africa, however some of the most memorable moments on this trip are the funny moments we shared together. Helen – her passion for Africa is palpable and infectious.”

MICHELLE | AUSTRALIA

KENYA & TANZANIA

“One of the very best things I’ve ever done in my lifetime.”

“I love the mix of culture, being immersed with real people, seeing so many animals, the small groups and the personal feel. The connections you have made us feel so very welcome. I’d highly recommend this trip and then some. Truly a remarkable experience.”

CHARLEE | USA

KENYA & TANZANIA

“We loved that it never ever felt like we were on a tour.”

“We are very experienced travellers and there is no way we could have arranged this on our own. You gave us the opportunity to experience a kind of authenticity that we thought was lost. The cast of characters and the relationships formed were because of how you put this trip together.”
