VICKY MITTAN – OWNER
Vicky Mittan has Africa deep in her bones. Born in Kenya, often her family piled into their game vehicle and went off into the bush in the Serengeti and Amboseli. She is passionate about animals and when her father forbade her to ride horses, after a bad fall she went door to door to raise money to get herself back on the horse.
PORTIA FANKOMO – MANAGER
The moment you see Portia behind the desk at the Blyde River Canyon Lodge you know she runs things with a good portion of both grace and grit. What is hard to believe is that this elegant, well spoken young woman had to work in the fields picking litchis despite having graduated from high school with top honors.
