Our Story
Our Origins
The spark for Fenix Adventure ignited when our co-founder, Dalène du Plessis, a seasoned globetrotter, returned from a chaperoned European tour with her two high school children. Disappointed by the lackluster and generic experience provided by the travel company, Dalène felt her children missed out on the true essence of each destination’s culture and history.
A Vision Born of Passion
Determined to change the game, Dalène called on her fellow travel enthusiasts and together, they channeled their love for immersive travel into creating something extraordinary.
With a vision of offering South Africans a new kind of adventure, they founded Fenix Adventure—a company dedicated to delivering unique, personalised chaperoned tours.
Crafting Unforgettable Tours
And so the Fenix Adventure dream began—with a small, tight-knit team of travel enthusiasts who share a deep love for exploring and understanding diverse cultures. Together, we craft itineraries designed to offer every traveller a journey that is both immersive and unforgettable.
And The Name?
Our name symbolises transformation. “Fenix” is inspired by the phoenix, representing the transformative power of travel.
"Adventure" It reflects our approach to travel: we don’t just experience places; we devour every moment with zest and enthusiasm.
