Safari Testimonials
"A private family safari with a prize-winning wildlife photographer is a remarkable experience...Our family has varying levels of photo experience, and Will offered significant artistic and technical insights to each of us...his knowledge of eastern Africa runs very deep...Best of all, Will mixes a serious professionalism with an easy-going nature. This was easily our best safari yet, and we look forward to doing another with Will.”
"As well as being a really good fun trip, very well organised and so many good sightings, I feel like I came out of it a much better photographer. I have gained a much better understanding of my camera technically, and with Will & Graeme’s complimentary methods they helped me tap into more creative ways to capture those special moments. I’m looking to doing another safari soon!”
"A last minute safari trip to Amboseli National Park in Kenya turned to a trip above and beyond expectation. The super tusk elephant safari was well-coordinated and properly run and if you asked politely, Will will make sure he accommodate your special requests as long as it's reasonable. Right, Will? I enjoyed being with my fellow seasoned photographers, who can photograph in all conditions. It will challenge your photographic skills and inspire you to be a better photographer. I am extremely happy with all the unique experiences I had on this trip and I have photos and videos to prove it."
"I couldn't ask for more of a magically holiday. Thank you so much to Will for planning my family holiday. They did a stella job from start to finish. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a luxury holiday company to explore the worlds untouched."
