I have travelled with these 4 guests many times over the last 8 years. We have explored all over Zambia, large parts of Botswana and this was my first adventure into East Africa with them. They had all been to Amboseli years before, but [...]
Botswana is well-known for having some of the richest, and best protected, wildlife estates in Africa. This was borne out by my photo safaris to the area in May 2022 and again in Aug 2024 and I was excited to revisit again for a [...]

Back in July 2024, I led a photo-safari through one of my favourite areas of Zambia; the great Kafue National Park. I have been running this trip since 2021 and it's always been a massive winner with guests getting great sightings and unusual, special [...]
