About Us

Kusini means ‘south’ in KiSwahili, a Bantu language widely spoken from Kenya to Mozambique. Our foundation was with a select group of clients found throughout the Southern Hemisphere and hugging the Equator in both Latin America and Africa. We have since selectively expanded to include like-minded partners in North America and the Indian subcontinent.

The Kusini Collection is a US-based travel marketing firm that represents an exclusive group of complementary, owner-operated camps, lodges and ground handlers in Africa, the Americas and India. Our collection offers a premium service and truly unique travel experiences. We are intimate, personalized and entirely focused on connecting highly-qualified, knowledgeable North American agents and outfitters with elite operating partners in Africa, the Americas and India. Ultimately, we strive to increase occupancy and drive travelers to the destinations we support.

Armed with an intimate knowledge of and first-hand experience in the North American adventure and luxury travel industry, we understand the needs of agents and outfitters and what they are looking for in an overseas partner. We provide destination and product training to our North American agents, equipping them with accurate, up-to-date and in-depth knowledge of our travel experiences, camps and lodges. Become a member of our Travel Trade area for exclusive access to trade-only information for our Collection partners.

Additionally, we assist with urgent communication needs, are actively involved in VIP client services, and furnish photography and marketing materials on request.
