We believe that everyone should have the chance to see these pictures



Over the next months Carys Palmer (head researcher) will be installing more camera traps across our network of leopard research game reserves. This is essential ongoing research that has over the last ten years made a significant impact on leopard conservation in South Africa. 

Our camera traps sit in remote and wild locations, secretly photographing everything that moves past the cameras day and night, giving us a unique insight into what happens when the game drives have returned to the lodges. We believe that everyone should have the chance to see these pictures which is why we created our Camera Trappers programme.
We very much hope that you can support our work in wildlife conservation by joining our camera trapper program You will receive an exclusive digest of the best pictures each month. Just click the link to find out more and subscribe via Paypal.

Great Tiger sightings this year - Secure your 2019 discount.

We have enjoyed some great times in India on safari over the last couple of months. All of our guests have had multiple Tiger sightings, which is great news, but moreover have enjoyed viewing the other rich diversity of wildlife, culture and of-course food.
We offer a choice of European or Indian cuisine while with us on safari, so whether you enjoy the spices and rich flavours of Indian food, or something a little more familiar, as ever, the choice is yours.
Our 5th April 2019 group safari (lead by Will Fox) has sold out already, so we have opened the book on a second safari, following the same itinerary travelling Delhi -Bandhavgarh NP - Kanah NP - Delhi
Ten days - Five star quality, starting on the 29th March 2019 at a special rate (£2,450pps).
