Getting up close and personal with the meerkats of the Makgadikgadi salt pans in Botswana! These creatures have been habituated by scientists, and although you can't touch them, they can interact with you freely, often using you as a lookout post for predators!

Happy Friday! Enjoy the weekend as much as this baby elephant is enjoying his milk.
As the high season comes to a close, we wanted to highlight some of the best things we have experienced over the last few months. From Victoria Falls, one of the natural wonders of the world, to wild dog hunts and sleeping out under the stars on the Makgadikgadi Pans, the largest salt pans in the world. The season has been nothing short of epic.

HAPPY WORLD ELEPHANT DAY. 🐘♥️
Here I am on our last safari visiting the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s Voi Reintegration Unit, where the orphaned elephants are gradually weaned and learn how to live as wild elephants.
On our arrival, the baby elephants sprinted down the hill to get their mid-morning milk and plunge into the mud bath. While they prefer the company of their Keeper for now, they will eventually reintegrate into these wild herds and stride the plains just as confidently as the wild herds they once revered.

As we mark World Lion Day today, recent estimates suggest that the lion population in Kenya has risen by 25%. This shows that the remarkable efforts of conservation organisations and local communities are making a huge difference.
Here is a beautiful moment captured this morning during our stay at Cottar’s Camp, in the Masai Mara.

Only four days left until our safari to Southern Africa begins! We'll be embarking on an incredible safari, starting from Johannesburg and venturing to Victoria Falls, Linyanti, the Okavango Delta, Makgadikgadi Pans, and finally returning to Johannesburg for our flight back to Kenya.
During our last trip to the Okavango Delta, we captured this beautiful video, showcasing the delta's unique ecosystem. Often hailed as the "jewel of the Kalahari," it stands as the largest inland delta globally, formed by the yearly floodwaters from the Okavango River. This vibrant oasis is teaming with diverse wildlife and plant species.

"The sea is as near as we come to another world," once wrote English-American poet Anne Stevenson, and her words hold true for the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean.
To celebrate World Oceans Day, we have highlighted some of the most unspoiled coastlines, pristine islands, and natural wonders of the Indian Ocean, like Kiwayu, pictured in this video, one of our favourite islands in Kenya.
By reflecting on this day, we hope it sheds light on the wonder of what the Indian Ocean has to offer and inspires you for your next beach holiday!

The orphan elephants from the sheldricks going for a swim in the Ithumba pool. Once the elephants have graduated the Nairobi centre they are moved to one of the centres located in Tsavo National Park and are slowly re introduced into the wild. ______________________________________________.

Another beautiful day in Africa. This is a snippet of a day I spent with guests recently in Botswana, in the Okavango Delta. There are so many ways to explore this unique corner of Africa.

Culture is something that not everyone expects on safari - and we are very lucky still to have tribes who are proud to maintain their ancient way of life. In Amboseli, @theoriginalkerdowney has held a concession there for the past 40 years. We have grown up with the Kisongo Maasai - they welcome us into their homes to learn something of their lifestyle, and at the same time, we welcome them into camp. This is a unique opportunity to learn and really experience a totally different way of life.

What a year! 7 African countries, countless adventures with the best clients. We’ve had an amazing year. We have offset every safari and our trip to America and Mexico with Stand For Tree (check them out). You should do it too! We’ve safaried through South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Uganda. Seeing the chimps, the gorillas, the migration, and so much more! We’ve gifted the local Masai tribe food in the toughest times through the drought, along with the other @theoriginalkerdowney guides. Made the world more accesible with @wheeltheworld! We continue to work with our impact manager to create incredible experiences with an awareness of their impact, but we can’t wait to share more on this with you all next year!
Happy New Year to you all! Onwards and upwards for 2023 ✨✨✨
