Marion is an Operations Executive at Yellow Zebra Safaris.

A snapshot

Born and bred in South Africa, and with a career that spans some of the greatest five-star lodges and hotels on the continent, Marion is an Operations Executive at Yellow Zebra and a very welcome addition to the team.

Marion’s biography

Ever since she was young, Marion has had a passion for wildlife and the African bush. After receiving a Diploma in Hotel Catering Management, Marion started her career at the stunning &Beyond Phinda Forest Lodge in KwaZulu-Natal, followed by working at some of the top hotels in Johannesburg.

For the last 10 years, Marion has worked with leading tour operators in South Africa, including Wilderness Safaris, and she has gained incredible knowledge of the US market – in particular, its high-end bracket. It was during this time that she had the opportunity to explore further into Africa, visiting places such as Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

Although Marion, her husband, and two children now live in London, her heart and home will always be in Africa.

Most memorable experience

My favourite parts of Africa are the sunsets and the night skies, which are just so clear and perfect, together with the background noise of all the nocturnal animals.

"We worked with Georgia to plan our honeymoon to South Africa. She was such a joy to work with — we were planning relatively close to our travel date, so availability was relatively limited. Georgia was able to put together a custom itinerary within a few days, and even asked hotels to hold rooms..."

"Yellow Zebra Safaris is amazing! My family used them for our two-week Tanzania trip this summer and we couldn't be happier. They thought of everything - from having people meet us with signs in one terminal and taking us to the other to staying in unique treehouses to choosing the best guide comp..."

"After delaying twice over 2 years, we were finally able to take our family safari trip to Zambia. Yellow Zebra helped us at every turn, whether it was flights, transfers, tours, camps or customer service, our experience was golden. No question we'll return to Africa and no doubt it will be with YZ."
