This leap allowed me to explore at my own pace and craft uniquely immersive itineraries that promise to educate, inspire, and transform. Each destination I've visited has enriched my understanding and fed my insatiable curiosity—qualities I’m eager to share with you on our journeys together.
I delight in going beyond the surface to unearth the real treasures of every destination and connect with the souls that dwell there. In 2024, I embarked on a life-altering decision to leave my corporate career and dedicate myself entirely to this dream.

Bea Adventurous began as a simple travel diary to keep my loved ones updated on my adventures. But as I shared my journeys, I realised my stories were sparking inspiration in others. So, I turned my blog into a resource for anyone looking to plan epic, meaningful adventures on their own.
Before long, people were asking to travel with me-which led to the creation of Bea Adventurous Tours. Initially, it was just a side hustle, but sharing these experiences brought me so much joy that I decided to take the leap, leave my corporate job, and make Bea Adventurous my full time pursuit.

What inspired you to start Bea Adventurous?
I only run tours in places that truly captivate me. Before adding a destination, I spend extensive time exploring, connecting with locals, and uncovering hidden gems that make it unique. My goal is to go beyond the highlights and offer a deeper, more meaningful experience, and that kind of depth takes time to discover.
Each destination also involves partnerships with community projects, which not only allow us to give back but also grant us access to areas most travellers don’t get to see. The local people we work with on the ground are the heart and soul of the tours – they’re the ones who make the journey truly special. Ultimately, I only design a tour after I’ve fallen in love with a place and its people, so every destination offers a life-affirming experience that leaves a lasting impact.

How do you choose the destinations for your tours?
It is tough to choose just one! In terms of wildlife, witnessing the Great Migration thunder across the Mara River is unforgettable. I’ve been lucky enough to see it three times, and each time, it takes my breath away.
But it’s always the people who truly make my journeys special. One memory that always brings a smile is meeting Hassan, a fisherman at Lake Manyara. He offered to take me out on his dugout canoe, and as we drifted across the lake, trying to communicate in my broken Swahili and his non-existent English, he said “teach me song!”. All I could think of is “If you are happy and you know it clap your hands”. And that is how I found myself singing and clapping my hands in the middle of Lake Manyara.
When the tour ended and I tried to pay him, he simply smiled, declined, and as he walked away started singing our song, with a little skip and a hop. Moments like this remind me why I travel – to connect, learn, and share joy in the simplest of ways.

What’s one of your most unforgettable travel moments?
These tours are designed for open-minded, adventurous souls. In the places we visit, things don’t always go as planned – our itineraries can shift, and unexpected adventures often pop-up. So, I’m looking for travellers who thrive in this type of spontaneous environment.
Our tours are open to all ages because, to me, age is just a number; it’s the spirit that matters. Each group is inclusive, welcoming people from all walks of life who are ready to say “yes” to new experiences and embrace the unknown with enthusiasm!

What type of traveller is perfect for Bea Adventurous trips?
Our trips are open to everyone – not just solo female travellers – but it’s true that most of our guests are women exploring on their own.
As someone who’s recently been through my own life changes, I attract those seeking equally transformative experiences. Over the years, we’ve welcomed all kinds of travellers: widows, singles, couples, friends, and many who are navigating big changes themselves.
Travel has a unique way of bringing fresh perspective, which is why I believe in its power, especially when you’re at a crossroads.
My goal is to create an empowering space for everyone ready to embrace change and adventure.

Are your trips only for solo female travellers?
What’s the craziest thing you’ve done on a trip?
Saying YES! I’m always in the habit of saying yes, and most recently my YES lead to an epic 3 day adventure with my taxi driver in Rwanda!
He was supposed to drop me off at the bus station to head from Kigali to Volcanoes National Park. Instead, he offered to drive me there for free if I’d cover the fuel since he fancied getting away for the weekend too.
What followed was an epic three-day adventure across Rwanda, where we both ticked off bucket-list experiences, from hiking a volcano to swimming in Lake Kivu. It was a reminder of the magic that can happen when you say “yes” to the unexpected!
Are you ready to say YES to your very own adventure?
