Your Australian Host


Bench Africa's Julie De Palo will be with you every step of the way!

Julie De Palo: Operations & Groups Director

Julie is Bench Africa's longest serving member of the team, having worked for Bench for over 21 years. Julie's love for Africa first began when she experienced her first safari to South Africa and Botswana.

“Words cannot express what it felt like – it’s not only about the animals, that is a bonus. It is about the people, the landscape, the simplicity of life, and how you realise the simple things in life are what ground us and how we forget that. Once you have gone there, you come back with a little piece of the magic that stays with you and makes you want to go back."

This itinerary is one of Julie's own creations, and this journey, like all of her bespoke journeys, truly demonstrates her wealth of knowledge, as well as her incredible passion and commitment to designing immersive adventures. By design, her journeys get you under the skin of a place, truly showcasing the simple beauty of Africa, and the wonder it has to offer, whilst creating opportunities to interact with people along the way, as it is this local connectivity that stays with you long after you've safely returned home.

Julie will be with you every step of the way.
