"I've read the Mara for eighteen years. It still surprises me every week."

We hire slowly. Every head guide holds a minimum silver-level KPSGA certification, has spent at least a decade in the field, and has been personally vouched for by two others on this team. Ask for one by name, they will remember you.
"I've read the Mara for eighteen years. It still surprises me every week."
"The road from Nairobi to the Mara is my second office. I know every pothole and every shortcut."
"If there's a lion within 500 metres, I will find it. Twenty years of eyes on the grass, you can't fake that."
"Pole pole, slowly, slowly. The best sightings happen when you stop rushing."
"I've done the 10-day circuit hundreds of times. Every group teaches me something new about pacing."
"Your itinerary is a first draft. My job is to make sure it becomes the trip you'll actually love."
Repeat guests often ask for George, Habil or Bernard by name. Tell us in your enquiry and we'll match your dates to their availability.
