About Me

LUXURY SAFARI & GLOBAL TRAVEL SPECIALIST

My passion for travel has taken me around the world — and now, I’m honored to help others do the same. Whether it’s curating a once-in-a-lifetime African safari through my signature collection, CURAH Africa Luxury Safaris, or planning a relaxing beach escape, I specialize in crafting journeys that are deeply personal, meaningful, and memorable.

I genuinely care about the people I work with. It brings me joy to see clients experience the time of their lives — whether it’s their first adventure or their fiftieth. I’m here to listen, guide, and create travel that reflects what matters most to you.

I work with a diverse range of travelers: families, honeymooners, LGBTQ+ explorers, solo adventurers, and luxury seekers — all looking for something extraordinary. With strong industry partnerships and a commitment to personalized service, I ensure every detail is thoughtfully handled.

Let’s create something unforgettable — because your story deserves a journey as unique as you are.

A HEART FOR SERVICE, A PASSION FOR TRAVEL

Victoria Falls, Zambia
Victoria Falls, Zambia

At my core, I’m someone who cares deeply about people. I believe that travel isn’t just about seeing new places — it’s about being seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.

Clients often tell me I bring a calm, thoughtful presence to every journey we plan. I take that to heart. Whether I’m helping a family plan their dream safari, guiding a honeymoon couple to the perfect island hideaway, or working with an LGBTQ+ traveler seeking a safe and affirming experience — I’m always focused on listening and understanding first.

If you’re looking for someone who treats your journey like it’s their own, you’re in the right place.

They saved my trip!
Reviewed By GPearce - Rockford, IL | Traveled to San Diego | California | USA
Curtis & Rahim at CURAH Travel did an amazing job for our family. We had booked 10 months ago a family trip for 7 people from 2 different states to Hawaii for a week through them. But the Hawaiian islands were hit with the Kona Storm and our plans had to change quickly. They had recommended trip insurance which we purchased through Faye, so glad we got it. We had flights, hotel, rental car and excursions booked, all had to be canceled. They helped cancel everything and assisted us with the travel insurance. Time off from work was requested 10 months ago and now no trip. They helped us plan in 3 days a trip to San Diego for a week. Once again flights for 7 people from 2 states, hotel, rental car and excursions were booked. Our family got to enjoy the sunshine and beach together. They helped make our family trip one to remember. We are going to definitely recommend them to our friends and family.

The trip was epic!
Reviewed By James Duke - San Diego, CA | Traveled to London | England | Europe
Curtis and Rahim were amazing planning our soccer pilgrimage to London and Milan! All we had to do was give them travel dates and what we wanted to do, they took care of the rest. It was way beyond just flights and hotels. They provided fun ideas, restaurant options, and were able to book it all! The hotels were perfect! Location, quality, everything we needed to recharge. All of the plans were organized on an easy to use app along with all the documents and receipts you’d need. It was a super comfortable experience and first class service! This trip was absolutely incredible! Prior to booking it, they invited us to review and approve itineraries. The amount of research and legwork they did to make sure the trip was perfect was evident. The trip itself started with a VIP tarmac transfer to the lounge at SEATAC upon arrival from SAN. We definitely weren’t expecting that. Great seats up front on the plane and not a care in the world. All of our docs were saved in their app so if I had any questions, it was a one stop shop for answers. Once we got to London we were more than prepped to start the vacation. The trip was epic! London, Milan, London; all ready for us at every step. I’d struggle to come up with a single complaint. It’s really nice just enjoying the trip rather than worrying about logistics along the way. Couldn’t recommend more and will definitely be using them for my next trip!
