Bucking the trend..........

2009 here we come...

The credit crunch and recession has hit most of our markets and we've made a plan to buck the trend again...

• We've tied in with our best preferred suppliers in East and southern Africa - they get most of our business, we get preferential rates that only our best competitors might see

• We've gone one step further - we've hand-picked the very best safaris in specific parts of Africa and have exclusive arrangements with this selection of outfits

Quite simply: best safari at best prices 

If we mark a safari as "unbeatable" then we guarantee to beat the price quoted by any competitor.

• Then we've made it simple too - we're offering these trips as "modules" that can be bolted together or extended - the logistics work and there's little room for things to go wrong whilst you're in the hands of some of the best operations in Africa.

...take a look at the 2009 and 2010 modules

On a sad note - Craig MacRae

One of our founding partners passed away in the night on the 22 January 2009 after a short and vicious tussle with cancer. A number of us in the office worked very closely with Craig, especially Delene and Chris. 

Many of our old clients will have visited his Sengwa Safaris camp on the Matusadona lakeshore.

We remember Craig for his great love of the bush, his battered land rovers, his delightful stories and his contribution to the safari industry in those old days when we were trying so hard to “get Kariba on the map”. 

We mocked the vulture on his logo - "he'll pick your wallet clean" - he gave us as much jip in return plus more.  He'll be sorely missed by us all.

Craig's View - Muchirara Valley, Kariba
