Back in June 2022, I hosted a 2 week Pan-Zambia tour visiting the Kafue, Lower Zambezi and South Luangwa National Parks. Andre Erlich joined me on that tour, bringing his wide range of travel experience, and highly-amusing stories, for the group to enjoy. He threw [...]
It's always a pleasure to welcome back repeat guests and this trip makes the magic 5 for Mike White who first visited the Luangwa with me in 2016! He does a lot of landscape photography when he is not shooting wildlife and he brings his [...]
Liz & Paul had booked this trip way back in May 2019. It was great to meet them finally after all the delays of the last 2 years. Their remit was clear - simply to enjoy spending time in the bush and to get some [...]

The Luangwa Valley is a special place to visit at any time of the year. I love the early dry season months of April, May and June for the clear light, cool mornings and the active animals which do not have to take shelter from [...]
I just returned from leading a 12-night adventure through 3 camps in the Okavango Delta with a group of repeat guests from the USA. It's a familiar story, but this trip had been planned in 2018 for 2020, then been postponed twice and finally taken [...]
