Our Story

My name is Nicolas, and like many parents, I dreamed of giving my children a childhood filled with wonder, adventure, and connection to the natural world. But I wanted something more—I wanted them to grow up as guardians of the planet, not just explorers of it.

That's how Maggie's Adventures was born.

What started as bedtime stories about a brave 11-year-old girl traveling the world with her researcher parents evolved into something far greater: a published book series that takes young readers from the jungles of Borneo to the peaks of the Himalayas, from the depths of the Nile to the volcanic islands of the Galápagos. Through Maggie's eyes, children discover not just the beauty of our planet, but also the urgent need to protect it.

In Maggie & The Orangutans, readers witness the devastating truth about deforestation as Maggie befriends Drew, a young orangutan who gifts her the magical ability to communicate with jungle animals. Armed with this gift and surrounded by unlikely allies—including Dhia, a wise 70-year-old saltwater crocodile—Maggie becomes the voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.

But here's what I realised: Maggie shouldn't just live in books. She should inspire real adventures.

That's why I created this Eco-Adventures Guide—to help families like yours transform the wonder you feel while reading about Maggie's journeys into your own real-world missions to explore and protect our incredible planet.

Our Mission

We inspire families to explore the world with wonder—and protect it with care.

At Maggie's Adventures, we believe that every journey, big or small, should be an opportunity to fall in love with this planet. Whether it's a backyard campout or a trek across continents, we help you travel boldly and responsibly, so your journeys leave the world better than you found it.

What We Stand For:

🌍 Conscious Exploration We guide families to destinations and experiences that celebrate nature's wonders while minimising environmental impact. From eco-lodges hidden in pristine forests to wildlife encounters that prioritise animal welfare, every recommendation honours the places we visit.

🦁 Wildlife Advocacy Just like Maggie gives voice to endangered animals in her stories, we champion responsible wildlife tourism. Learn how to observe animals ethically, support conservation efforts, and teach your children to be protectors of the creatures who share our world.

🌱 Leave No Trace Values Adventure doesn't mean leaving a mark—it means leaving things better. We provide practical guidance on sustainable travel practices, from packing eco-friendly gear to teaching kids the seven principles of Leave No Trace.

📚 Educational Inspiration Through the Maggie's Adventures book series and our travel resources, we blend storytelling with real-world education. Your children will learn about orangutans facing habitat loss, Bengal tigers struggling against poaching, and Super Tusker elephants navigating a shrinking world—then discover how they can help.

❤️ Family Connection Our greatest adventures happen when families explore together. We curate experiences that bond generations, spark meaningful conversations, and create memories that inspire a lifetime of environmental stewardship.

Our Goal

To empower one million families to become environmental guardians through adventure.

We envision a world where every family vacation is also a conservation mission—where children return home from trips not just with photos and souvenirs, but with a deep understanding of ecosystems, endangered species, and their own power to make a difference.

Through Maggie's Adventures, we're building a global community of young environmental leaders who, like Maggie, refuse to stand by while our planet's wild places disappear. We're equipping parents with the tools, knowledge, and inspiration to raise children who explore with curiosity and protect with conviction.

Because the truth is simple: The children who fall in love with nature today will fight to save it tomorrow.
