Private Hire
Make It Private with Your Family or Friends
Because the best moments are meant to be shared — your way.
Why share your once-in-a-lifetime trip with strangers when you could experience it with the people who matter most? Whether it’s a milestone birthday, a family adventure, or just time to reconnect with your favourite people, going private means making the journey truly yours.
Set the pace, choose the focus, and travel on your terms.
Want to spend an extra hour with a pride of lions? Prefer early starts and long coffee breaks? Or maybe you’re travelling with kids or grandparents and want flexibility built in? A private trip lets you do all that — and more — without compromising on comfort, experience, or depth.
You’ll have your own expert guide (that’s me!) who knows how to read the mood, adjust on the fly, and turn good days into unforgettable ones. With a lifetime of knowledge from growing up in Africa and a clear understanding of what UK travellers need, I’ll make sure everyone — from seasoned safari-goers to first-timers — feels looked after and inspired.
Because it’s not just about what you see. It’s about who you see it with — and how it makes you feel.
Go private. Go deeper. Go together.
Please be aware that your per-person cost on a privately organized trip will vary depending on the number of travellers in your group and may be as much as 10%-50% higher (typically) than our normal trip. Many factors can contribute to an inflation in costs.
Why Travel with me as your Private Guide?
Africa is in my blood – I was born there, and it’s shaped everything I know and love. It’s not just a job for me — it’s home.
I get both sides – Now living in the UK, I understand what travellers expect, and I can translate Africa’s magic in a way that really resonates.
It’s all about you – No rigid schedules or generic stops. I tailor every trip to suit your pace, interests, and bucket list.
I know where to go – After years in the bush, I know the secret spots, the quieter corners, and how to get close without disturbing the wildlife.
Skip the crowds – We’ll avoid the busy lookouts and head where the real magic happens.
Photographer’s dream – I’ll help you get the perfect shot, from light and angle to reading animal behaviour.
You just relax – I take care of all the boring stuff — permits, pickups, timings — so you can focus on enjoying every moment.
Feel safe and confident – Whether it’s a lion sighting or navigating a local market, I’ve got you covered.
Nature with heart – Conservation matters to me. Every trip is thoughtful, respectful, and helps protect what we love.
Meet real people – I’ll introduce you to local trackers, guides, and communities who make the experience deeper and more real.
Stories, not just stats – I don’t do boring. You’ll hear the real stories behind the animals, landscapes, and people.
You’ve got my full attention – Unlike group tours, I’m here just for you. We go where you want, stay longer where it’s magic, and chase the moments that matter.
Flexibility is key – Want to stop for a photo? Wait for better light? Change things up mid-trip? Let’s do it.
Perfect for first-timers – If you’re new to Africa, I’ll make sure it all feels easy, safe, and unforgettable.
It’s personal – This isn’t just another safari. We’ll laugh, learn, and maybe even sit in silence watching elephants together. By the end, you won’t just feel like a guest — you’ll feel like family.
