Inspiring African Travel

James & Stuart

Welcome to Inspiring African Travel - the podcast sharing extraordinary African travel stories while honouring those driving positive change across the continent. Hosted by James Wilson and Stuart Parker, we've explored Africa's incredible diversity across eight seasons and over 50 episodes. From our early series featuring "Women in Travel" and "Local Heroes in Tourism" to "African Travel Tips" and "Transformative Travel in Africa". More than just travel - we share responsible travel stories, conservation efforts, and community upliftment. Each episode features inspiring conversations with local guides, conservationists, and travel experts who are making a real difference in their space. In loving memory of our co-founder Julia Spry-Wilson, we've established the Inspiring African Travel Fund, supporting grassroots projects across Ghana, Zanzibar, and Botswana. From coral restoration to wildlife conservation and education initiatives, we're creating lasting positive impact. Whether you're planning your first African adventure or you're a seasoned traveller seeking inspiration, join us as we uncover the beauty, culture, and incredible people that make Africa so special.
