of each client should be the starting point of a cooperation.

The Shine Centre.

This vary from a simple Meet & Greet at the airport of your clients to
the complete project management of your incentive groups to Southern
Africa.
We take away the stress of not knowing how to deal with African time
and the African way of doing things.
We can organize: accommodation, transport, qualified guides, safaris,
excursions, restaurants & car rental.
Communication is key, we reply your emails/calls with 24hrs.
Custom made: exclusive, original, high quality!
On the website you will find example programs but experience learns
that every guest is unique and we prefer to treat them that way.
