Our brief: Four artist friends from Switzerland wanted to see Zimbabwe’s famed San Bushman paintings, and the Great Zimbabwe Monument - the largest ancient ruin in the southern hemisphere. Click here to view their tour.

Our brief: This Swiss family of four wanted to safari – see the Great Migration - and relax by the sea. For Tanzania we carefully selected small camps in the areas where the Great Migration would be at the time, and that provided an authentic safari experience. We organised a private vehicle that was suitable for travelling on the roads between parks and in the for game viewing once in. They had their own knowledgeable guide to accompany them throughout, driving, organising and interpreting. For beach time we chose a remote pristine private island in Mozambique, easy to get to, and where the family could unwind and spend quality time together. Click here to view their tour.

Our brief: This well-travelled couple from Switzerland wanted to visit a children’s charity they support in Nambia and to take the opportunity to see some of the country as well. They wanted to do a road trip, but preferred not to have to do the driving themselves, and a private guide. They did not want the distances to be too long between destinations, and to spend just a night or two in each place – they like to be busy and keep on the move! Besides the dry desert landscapes of Namibia, they also wanted to experience the watery world of the Okavango Delta. Click here to view their tour.
“We only recommend places we have personally visited. Stuart has taken almost all of the photos that are on the website whilst on our own travels. No special set ups - no photoshop. Thank you to our clients for allowing us to share the photos of their trips too.”
