Sometimes we come across amazing stories from the African bush. In this instance an old guiding friend of mine, Chad Cocking, tells a tale of his encounter with the widely feared Black Mamba. It is wonderful for him to share that experience, but the video made of the capture of the Mamba is a great education into snakes and we would really recommend that you not only read Chad's story, but watch the video too. Chad guides at Tanda Tula Lodge, which is a fantastic place to visit and proudly owned and operated by Don and Nina Scott. For photographers we highly recommend Tanda Tula, where Chad can add his vast photographic experience to a great safari. Phone or email us to start your Tanda Tula experience.

We're back from a scouting trip in Africa and there are lots of new ideas and places to visit.

Details of our group tours for 2019 will be released over the coming weeks. Expect groups to:
* Namibia in July
* Botswana in August
* Madagascar in September

Also in 2019 we will be offering Ethiopia as a new destination, and very special packages which bring together Ethiopia + Madagascar as a unique combination.
