As the word suggests, a Private Guide is, in essence, your own dedicated professional guide that accompanies you on your travels, from the moment you set foot on African soil to when you depart.

Your private guide will be there to relieve you of any traveling concerns, giving you peace of mind as your guide takes care of your schedule and walks you through each step of the way.

Having a clear and in-depth understanding of your expectations, interest, and special requests will be the secret to the trip’s success and equip your private guide in shaping and creating the best safari experience for you. Most days will be spent tracking down the elusive game, chasing down an adventure, arranging special activities, and allowing yourself to fully emerge in your surroundings as all arrangements are taken care of on your behalf.

Beyond that, though is the luxury of a private guide on your safari and the knowledge that he brings, which will be honed to focus on your specific interest be it to game viewing, birds, walks or drives. Not having to wait for other guests, or hold back on asking your questions, makes a bigger difference than you might imagine.

Your guides years of practical experience will guarantee the best possible game viewing from both a photographic and enjoyment perspective and will be key to the memories that are made. Another of the crucial roles of your private guide is your safety and wellbeing, which will be considered at all times.

The guide is arguably the most important part of the whole safari experience, especially if it’s your first trip to Africa. There is so much to learn while in the bush, and knowledge will play a key role as facts and stories unfold and questions are answered – all the while you immerse yourself in the environment, moments, and memories that a safari brings.
