    NO. 1 FOR SAFARI IN THE SUNDAY TIMES TRAVEL MAGAZINE

    “Why it’s top: The firm’s knowledge – of hundreds of camps in 12 countries – is extraordinary, gained through thousands of hours spent exploring the continent. Ask directors Michele and Rob where to see wild dogs, for example, and not only will they tell you the prime spots, but they’ll name the very best guides for the species”.

    WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

    Hi Mary, thank you ever so much for organising my wonderful holiday. Makanyi was superb wonderful accommodation, great animal sightings (including black rhinos!) and very friendly staff. I will be returning. Once again, many thanks and I will be in touch to sort out another trip as soon as I can.

    Hi Michele, the holiday went smoothly and everything was well organised, the venues, sights and experiences met our expectations and much much more. The safari was particularly excellent and all the accommodation choices were very good. We cant pick fault with any of the locations and we will certainly be recommending the holiday and what we did to others.

    January 2019

    Dear Rob, unfortunately our last day has approached. We all together enjoyed this trip extremely! Londolozi is amazing and we would give both camps a 10/10. It truly was “a once in a lifetime experience“ and we will never forget. This trip totally fits into my life motto “invest in memories“ and this was one of my best investment regarding this! Thank you so much for everything! You did an amazing job & I definitely know it’s not the last booking with you!

    Good morning Mary, thank you so much for emailing and for very kindly checking in on us on Friday. We have appreciated all your invaluable support so very much. We had the best time in South Africa and we really cannot thank you enough for arranging such a once in a lifetime trip for us. We were totally blown away every day. I cried when we left Tswalu – and I don’t get emotional that easily!! Alex and I are both intensely jealous of past Alex and Jo who were at Tswalu this time last week – what a beautiful experience. Huge, huge thanks again Mary. We told everyone we spoke to on the way home how amazing you all are and to book through you for any future trips.

    Alex and Jo from Essex travelled to South Africa
    November 2021

    Dear Mary, I meant to write to say thank you. Everything was beyond lovely and we had the perfect holiday thanks to you! I have already recommended you all to a client of mine.

    Hello Michele, the most professional and exclusive holiday we have ever been on, it was truly brilliant. We loved the fact that we were not vying with lots of other guests in safari vehicles to view anything. I was utterly amazed with our accommodation – both the rooms and the main buildings.  The food served was always gorgeous – as were the wines. And our guide and tracker were outstanding – they delivered so many wonderful sightings.  All the staff were brilliant. Hopefully we will be back for more!

    September 22 is World Rhino Day. Rhino encounters September 22 is World Rhino Day. Rhino encounters on safari, whether as part of a game drive, tracking on foot, on bike or on horseback, offer incredibly rewarding and memorable wildlife experiences and, at the same time, visiting national parks and reserves contributes to vital conservation and protection of rhino in Africa. Visit the blogs section of our website where we explain the best way to incorporate rhino sightings into a safari in southern and East Africa. #worldrhinoday #rhinoconservation #positiveimpacttourism #specialistsafari #walkingwithrhino #blackrhino #whiterhino #bestplacestoseerhino #rhinointhewild #walkingsafaris #africansafaris #safariconsultantsltd

    Today is International Primate Day, an annual cele Today is International Primate Day, an annual celebration established to highlight primates around the world and the conservation efforts being made to protect threatened populations. Some of the most prominent names in wildlife conservation worked with primates in Africa, such as Dian Fossey and Dame Jane Goodall. There is, unsurprisingly, something relatable to any primate viewing while on safari – the amusing cheekiness of vervet monkeys and fascinating social interactions of a troop of baboons. Trekking in search of the larger primates offers something altogether different and unique. Coming eye to eye with a mountain gorilla or chimpanzee in their natural habitat is an undeniably moving experience. Trekking for these larger primates usually involves some physical hard work, and a relatively short viewing time (one hour), but your hour with them is one of the most rewarding wildlife encounters possible. #internationalprimateday #primatesofafrica #specialistsafari #primateconservation #positiveimpacttourism #gorillatrekking #chimpanzeetrekking #mountaingorillas #wildlifemoments #bucketlisttravel #safari #africa #travel #wildlife #wildlifephotography #travelphotography #uganda #rwanda
    Kenya's Masai Mara is one of Africa's most incredi Kenya's Masai Mara is one of Africa's most incredible wildlife areas and somewhere that we at Safari Consultants have long-established ties with. We have followed the development of the region for many years, including the inception and progress of the hugely successful conservancies. Whether a safari first-timer, or a regular old hand, the Mara is a highly sought after safari destination and while the conservancies provide a model for sustainable wildlife conservation, the numbers of people visiting the National Reserve has become increasingly concerning. However, following the release of the Masai Mara National Reserve Management Plan earlier this year, strong momentum is gathering for meaningful change. A special report in the latest edition of @travelafricamagazine looks into why the Masai Mara holds such appeal, the impact that tourism is having and how the new Management Plan could result in positive change. The report includes input from operators, lodge owners, guides and the magazine’s regular safari-goer readers and makes for well-informed, insightful reading. #travelafricamagazine #kenyasafaris #maasaimara #maasaimaranationalreservemanagement #sustainablewildlifetourism #wildlifeconservation #positiveimpacttourism #safariconsultantslimited
    August 12th is World Elephant Day, bringing attent August 12th is World Elephant Day, bringing attention to the plight of this well loved and revered animal. Elephant sightings can offer some of the most rewarding, fascinating and humbling wildlife moments on an African safari, whether taking in the majestic power of a large lone bull, marvelling at the social interactions of a breeding herd, or being thoroughly entertained by the antics of a baby elephant. There are three species of elephant: African savanna (the largest populations being in Southern and Eastern Africa), African forest (found largely in the dense rainforests of West and Central Africa) and Asian (found in the forests of parts of India and Southeast Asia). The easiest way to tell the difference between African and Asian elephants is by the size of their ears: African elephants have much larger ears that are often described as being in the shape of the continent of Africa. As well as having smaller ears, Asian elephants only have one ‘finger’ at the tip of their trunk, whereas their African cousins have two fingers. Elephants are remarkable at being able to survive in very different ecosystems from wetlands to desert, and from thick forest to open savanna. Yet despite their ability to adapt, habitat loss, climate change, poaching and human-wildlife conflict remain a critical threat to their future. Thankfully there are many initiatives taking place globally to protect and conserve elephants and their habitat. Join us in showing appreciation for these venerable pachyderms. #worldelephantday #africanelephants #naturepositivetourism #elephantconservation #safariconsultantsltd
    How beautiful are these images? Our client Gillian How beautiful are these images? Our client Gillian Evans has just returned from South Africa’s Kwa-Zulu Natal where she took these impressive photos, making use of specialist photography hides @Zimanga Private Game Reserve There are nine hides on the reserve, all superbly equipped and designed with great attention to detail and the photographer in mind. Each hide has a specific location to allow for a different focus, from small birds, waterbirds and crocodiles to scavengers and large mammals. A big thank you to Gillian @blackdownphotographer for sharing these inspiring photos. #wildlifephotography #naturephotograph #photographicsafari #specialistwildlifetravel #photographichides #specialistsafari #zimanga
