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 [...]

In October, I travelled with my wife and daughter to India, to explore the SUJÁN camps in Rajasthan. This was part holiday and part recce trip because I have been asked by many of my guests about wildlife safaris to India. Perhaps because it [...]

One of my most anticipated safaris of recent years took me to the stunning wildlife areas of Botswana, in August and September, classically the best times of year. The trip was 18 nights spread across 5 locations, using Kwando Safaris and Natural Selection's camps. [...]

The Serengeti holds lots of meaning for me; it featured in Willard Price's books about Hal & Roger Hunt which I read when I was young; it is also famous as one of the world's great wildlife areas, and the concept of Serengeti has [...]
