Choosing The African Safari Guide Is The Primary Decision Of Your Trip
After fourteen years of helping people go on African safaris, I've found the above statement to be very accurate.
So I've compiled a list of the top field guides in Africa to ensure travelers go on safari with the very best.
Granted, there are a lot of other factors that also contribute to a successful experience, not least of which is the wildlife and surroundings itself, but these are all tremendously enhanced by the right safari guide, who is the linchpin of your trip.
The old cliché that everyone repeats, "the field guide can make or break your safari", well, it's extremely accurate.
The great majority of complaints by safari travelers revolve around the guide in some way. Take a look at some of the Africa travel review websites and you'll see what I mean.
Which is not surprising really, because you spend most of your time on an African safari in the company of your field guide, and if they are not up to the task, your whole trip is in jeopardy.
So when planning your Africa adventure, make sure you get this critical decision right and go with an exceptional guide.
The Top Safari Guides list helps you to do this very successfully...
How To Get The Best African Safari Guide For Your Trip
STEP 1:
Pinpoint The Top Safari Guides
I search for and unearth the very best guides in Africa for you by making sure they have the relevant qualifications and experience and also pass the Top Guides eligibility criterion with flying colors.
They either own, or are employed by the finest companies, operators and lodges because good field guides tend to naturally gravitate towards the leading companies.
There is a very clear correlation between the top safari guides and the foremost safari companies and lodges.
I apply these exacting standards when deciding who makes it onto the list, no shortcuts allowed.
The result is a collection of guides of the highest quality, they are the cream of the crop, the best of the best, the upper 2% in the industry.
