Group sizes on Tours

We understand the need to have a tour group size that will maximize the experience of each participant. Therefore, we ensure that our vehicles carry a maximum of six guests each, allowing all safari participants a window seat. When the tour group is larger than one guide can adequately attend to, we ensure we have two or more Safari Guides on the tour. This ensures that each guest is given the best tour services at all times during our tours and safaris.

Further, we ensure that every coin you spend in our tours has an impact to the birds, other wildlife and habitats we visit. We support local NGOs and community groups working to safeguard these habitats and your tour with us plays a huge role in all this.
