Best Global Boutique Safari Business 2024 Iconic Africa was founded by Terri Abadi, in 2013 with the primary objective of enticing global travellers to our African shores to showcase our i
ncredible continent and simultaneously try help to give back and make a difference. Terri spent numerous holidays during her African childhood visiting the Kruger National Park, Botswana and many other wilderness areas and it was during this time that her rare love for the African “bushveld” developed. She is unable to contain this love for Africa and this thread runs unfailingly through the Iconic Africa team. A passion for all that Africa has to offer, be it the wildlife, the people or the many ongoing conservation efforts. We ensure we give back. In bringing people to Africa, Iconic Africa is able to contribute back and uplift many of the most disadvantaged parts of Africa which so desperately need our support. Before entering the travel and safari industry, Terri owned two successful American fashion companies and used these as leverage to build an export business that shipped innovative children’s products back to South Africa. Now living in Atlanta, Georgia, Terri enjoys spending the summer months on safari with her husband and four children. Terri ensures she has personally assessed each and every travel experience Iconic Africa recommends to our clients. With this first-hand experience of each region, Terri has grown Iconic Africa into one of the leading planning services for elite travel to Southern and Eastern Africa.
