Brand Background

Vixen Excursions Brand

Discover the wonders of Africa, where you can explore the diverse and spectacular natural beauty of this region together.

Vixen Excursions (Pty) Ltd is Botswana female citizen-owned company that was registered officially in April 2021. The brand-owner and Director of the company started photography as a hobby, which she hoped would help her with the anxiety that resulted from the Covid-19 lockdown. Over time and after hundreds of photography material that she referred to, she gravitated towards nature and wildlife and travelled to various destinations in pursuit of this passion. The Vixen Photography has since become a recognizable and reputable brand for their captivating content that sensitizes and encourages others to travel and explore the beauty of nature. Vixen Excursions (Pty) Ltd was born out of a hobby that grew into a passion that is now promising to create employment for others.
