Tipping on Safari: A Personal Guide to Safari Etiquette
Let’s take the guesswork out of one of the most common safari questions “how much should I tip on safari?“ Whether you’re heading to South Africa, Botswana, Tanzania or Kenya,
Great things start with a conversation: with the understanding of feelings and personal connections. In a world of so much information, let your aspirations and my experience create something that is truly special.
I craft highly personalised adventures across Africa, the Indian Ocean, Asia and the Americas. From our first exploratory conversation to the moment you touch down at home, every detail is considered; logistics, accommodation, experiences and all backed up with full concierge support.
This is not off-the-shelf travel. It’s an open and constant dialogue and total appreciation of your preferences, lifestyle and aspirations. Teamwork that culminates in an itinerary that’s uniquely for you.
Whether you’re celebrating love, uniting generations, or pursuing wellness, I create itineraries that elevate your moment.
From sharing first time safari sightings to intimate, luxury island paradise weddings, once in a lifetime is not just for the vows.
Give the gift of time and travel, share moments and make memories to last a lifetime with your loved ones.
Immersive escapes that restore both mind and body from Ayurvedic retreats in Sri Lanka to wild wellness in the African bush.
For those who live for adventure: dive alongside manta rays, hike glaciers, or trek remote mountain trails in search of elusive wildlife.
Private islands, staffed luxury villas and entire lodges, reserved just for you.
Purpose-driven voyages to less explored regions like Galapagos, Raja Ampat or Antarctica; intimate, educational and completely unforgettable.
I live between two very different yet perfectly complementary worlds: the English riverside elegance of Henley-on-Thames and the immersive, untamed energy of Hoedspruit at the edge of Kruger National Park in South Africa. It’s an incredible combination that inspires how I design travel experiences, combining the wild with refined comfort.
My own travels have taken me all over the world (many with my children in tow). I’ve been to six of the seven continents (hope to complete the set soon) and have experienced a huge variety of travel styles. I’ve been fortunate enough to stay in some of the world’s best hotels but am also happy to sleep in a tent to get to those ‘off the beaten track’ destinations or to witness something really special. I am wildlife obsessed, an avid scuba-diver and more recently have discovered the addictive joys of birding and photography.
I chose to partner with Travel Counsellors because their values and infrastructure magnify what I can do for you. Their global network, award-winning technology, ATOL/Travel Trust financial protection and sheer scale mean that behind the tailor-made magic, there’s real security and total support.
I feel that the best kind of travel leaves a positive footprint showcasing yet preserving the places you visit. Good travel should give and not take, uplifting local communities, protecting wildlife and respectfully celebrating local cultures. For this reason, I completed the Global Sustainable Tourism Council certification for tour operators, am a TTG Sustainable Travel Ambassador and always make considered decisions.
