  • Favourite destination?

    Kenya or South Africa.

  • Favourite park or reserve?

    Kenya’s majestic Masai Mara. The classics are classic for a reason.

  • Favourite lodge or hotel?

    The incredible Angama Mara, which offers breathtaking views across the Masai Mara from its lofty position, perched on an escarpment above the floor of the Great Rift Valley.

  • Fondest memory?

    Watching sunrise over the Mara as a pride of 15 lions stalked silently towards us.

  • Top tip?

    Take plenty of pictures and don’t get caught up on only spotting the Big Five. The birdlife in Africa is out of this world and observing smaller, lesser-known species is often just as magical as observing a herd of elephants. Specialist activities like birding, photographic or walking safaris are a wonderful way to deepen your safari experience.
