About Me

As a travel consultant with a passion for South Africa, I’m here to bring your dream safari to life!

Whether you’re embarking on a thrilling wildlife adventure, exploring the vibrant cultures of Johannesburg and Cape Town, or immersing yourself in the stunning landscapes of the Garden Route, I am dedicated to crafting the perfect South African escape tailored to your tastes and interests. Having traveled throughout the country, I’ve gained firsthand experience of its diverse regions -from the world-famous Kruger National Park, teeming with the Big Five, to the scenic beauty of the Western Cape and the untouched wilderness of the Eastern Cape. This gives me a unique insight into the best times to visit, the most comfortable accommodations, and the most rewarding wildlife experiences. I specialize in organizing custom safari packages that combine luxury, adventure, and education. Whether you're looking for a private safari tour with a personal guide, or a group experience with fellow wildlife enthusiasts, I’ll work closely with you to ensure that every detail of your trip exceeds your expectations.

South Africa offers some of the most spectacular wildlife experiences on the planet, so my goal is to connect you with that magic! I can guide you through world-renowned game reserves like Kruger, Sabi Sand, and Madikwe, as well as hidden gems like Addo Elephant Park, where you’ll see majestic animals in their natural habitat, from elephants and lions to rare cheetahs and leopards.

But a safari is only part of what South Africa has to offer. Beyond the wildlife, this country is rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. I can help you plan excursions to Cape Town’s iconic Table Mountain, take a scenic drive along the Cape Winelands, or visit Robben Island to learn about South Africa’s inspiring journey toward democracy.  I’ll help you uncover the stories of apartheid and struggle through carefully curated tours and visits to historical sites like the Apartheid Museum and the District Six Museum. As your travel expert, I ensure that you have a hassle-free experience, from the moment you begin planning your trip to the moment you return home with memories that will last a lifetime. 

I’ve built strong relationships with local guides, conservationists, and luxury lodges, all of whom share my commitment to responsible tourism and wildlife preservation, so let me help you discover the wonders of this beautiful land, from its breathtaking landscapes to its incredible wildlife and create memories that will last a lifetime!

I can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was in working with Olja Muursepp and Preferred Travel Services in Phoenix! We really appreciated the convenience of a walk in office and the customer service was exceptional! Olja is so knowledgeable and professional. She really listened to our thoughts and concerns. Everything was perfect! Her personal experience with France guaranteed that our trip would have all those little touches that you can't get from the Internet. We can't wait to book the next one!

Unforgettable Adventure
Reviewed By Mike and Karen - Peoria AZ | Traveled to Estonia ~ Europe
Thank you for an unforgettable adventure! Estonia is like a fairy tale with its castles, islands, forests, windmills and wildflowers. Learning about the history, culture and Soviet times was an incredible experience. We even LOVE Herring now! Switzerland is breathtaking, even when you are in a funicular climbing mountains at an 87 degree angle! The electric tour, Glacier Express to St. Moritz, and the day in Gruyere were amazing!

Love,

Mike and Karen

    Best vacation ever!
    Olja set us up! The most fun relaxing vacation I’ve ever been on. Our excursions were all made in advance and everything went like clockwork. No problems whatsoever. Olja knew exactly what we wanted and arranged it. Anyone taking this trip should definitely talk to her and believe me it will be awesome. She knows the prices and if excursions are good or not. Call her, you will be extremely pleased. Rocky
