WE ARE KIMBURI TOURS
Meet The Founder
Kimburi Tours was founded by Shanil Balgobind, whose lifelong connection to nature began with camping, hiking, and exploring the landscapes and cultural heritage of Southern Africa alongside his family.
That early passion evolved into a clear purpose while completing his Master’s in Environmental Law, where time spent volunteering at a local nature reserve revealed both the beauty of tourism and the urgent need for a more sustainable approach. Kimburi Tours was created to be part of that solution.
Today, Shanil remains actively involved in the business, finding meaning in sharing South Africa’s remarkable landscapes, wildlife, and stories with guests. He has built a trusted team, known as the Kimburi Clan, made up of dedicated guides whose own journeys into nature and conservation reflect the values at the heart of the company.
Together, the clan upholds Kimburi’s commitment to integrity, exceptional guest experiences, and respectful engagement with communities and the natural world. Meet the team on our Clan page, or explore guest reviews to discover the Kimburi experience through the eyes of our travellers.
