Personal Transformation

- Powered by Nature

Nature Connexion is a “boutique” tour operator based in South Africa, and leader in transformational travel. Founded by Natacha Wauquiez, Nature Connexion offers more than just eco-conscious retreats and workshops in the heart of the African wilderness – we provide a gateway to rejuvenation and  transformation.

With a few exclusive tailor-made events a year, Nature Connexion targets high quality experiences designed for facilitators, individuals and groups who yearn for a deeper connection with Nature, seeking not just to explore the wild but to experience “shifts” and be fundamentally changed by it.

Nature Connexion will take you on a journey where the breath taking beauty of Africa intertwines with personal growth, leading to moments that inspire your soul and elevate your spirit.

Meet Natacha

There is no beauty quite like the soul of Africa! Over the years, my fascination with the continent grew until I finally decided to follow my heart. I packed a suitcase and flew to South Africa, and I’ve never looked back…

Upcoming Retreats

Our tailor-made experiences centre around an authentic nature connection combined with physical or wellness activities, personal development, eco-psychology, photography, alternative therapies, healing modalities, and more…

Travel with heart

Our ethos is centred around creating eco-conscious experiences with a positive environmental impact and support for local communities.

CAMPING

Positive environmental impact

We curate itineraries by partnering with lodges and camps that prioritise eco-friendly practices, helping preserve the environment.

Collaborating with Local Farmers and Providers

By sourcing local products and services, we support the local economy and promote sustainable practices.

Giving back

We support NGOs that practice permaculture and support local communities.

Transformational travel

As partners with the Transformational Travel Council, we encourage thoughtful and open-hearted travel, fostering personal growth, self-reflection, and a deeper connection with nature.

We are based in Hoedspruit, the main safari hub of the Limpopo province (South Africa). That enables us to be regularly informed about new developments in the region (accommodations, walking safaris, activities) and oversee the smooth running of your event in the area.

My experience in the program Nature Connexion offered was really good. I met amazing people and saw amazing things. It fulfilled a dream of seeing African wildlife while also offering me the opportunity to learn and grow in ways that really matter to me. What a wonderful way to be with nature, oneself and inspiring people!

This was a trip of a lifetime. Every moment was breath-taking and I can’t wait to return to South Africa. Natacha’s care for detail and quality experiences is impeccable. You can feel the care she has for her work and for the participants that travel on her excursions. I highly recommend any Nature Connexion trip - you won’t be disappointed!

Tracy P, USA

This is an experience in a life-time. Nature Connexion founded and led by Natacha Wauquiez is an invitation to remember and reawaken our deepest connection with and to Nature. Actually, it is an inspiring, profound and transformative journey within and without. The South African wilderness brings us back home to who we truly are, in a breathtaking environment with wild animals and most welcoming people thanks to Natacha's great experience, skills and her heart-led guidance. She exactly knows what she is doing and so generously offers all of it to those who are open to such an amazing adventure.
My deepest gratitude

Absolutely a skilfully managed Professional Development event. We felt very cared for - esp. around food and health issues, as she ensured our needs were met without us having to double-check all was okay! She seemed to be on top of everything... every minute of the day and night. What amazed us was when she encountered numerous challenges during the PD event (e.g., power failures, lost luggage, terrible weather) she managed these intense experiences with grace, skill, and professionalism. I would definitely recommend her services in a heartbeat! She was a valuable gem - as she is super organized, prepared, friendly, professional, real, informative, and deeply caring! Amazing!

Dawn M, Australia

I am a yoga teacher and have organised several yoga retreats with Nature Connexion. “When you love, you don’t count” and you always come back. The reason why I regularly work with Natacha is because she distinguishes herself with her professionalism at each step of our retreats’ experiences. She knows how to create a great vibe and how to adapt the event to the participants’ needs.

All that in the very laid-back atmosphere! We laugh a LOT!We can feel that there’s a lot of planning put in place, from the flights’ bookings, the accommodations to the challenging logistics during the trip; all is dealt with in a light way, and Natacha’s always very attentive to details. But we do not see those challenges - it’s quite marvellous. She’s absolutely awesome. As a yoga teacher myself, I can travel in full “Zenitude” because I can completely rely on her. Voilà ! 

Sandrine B, France

An extraordinary trip thanks to Natacha. A truly exceptional luxury campsite in the Okavango Delta. A wilderness experience, in all its simplicity and with an attentive team.

Then South Africa in a lodge selected for its beauty, location and warm hospitality. In short, an exceptional trip. Thank you so much.

I highly recommend it.
