Chris’s passion for wildlife and conservation began in 1955 and what with assisting in the production of “Ivory Bloody Ivory”; working in remote areas such as Southern Sudan, Tanzania, Djibouti, Yemen, and Gabon; involving himself in anti-poaching programmes and lastly the BBC production of the very popular “Big Cat Diary” makes him a very interesting man to be on safari with.
His dry sense of humour combined with his ability to make you feel at home leaves you feeling that you have met a lifelong friend. His knowledge of the bush extends far beyond the big and well known animals as he will pay attention to the detail of each ecosystem such as the relationship of a dung beetle to the bat eared fox.

He is also an expert ornithologist and in case you have not already had your fill of knowledge in the day he will interest you at night with all the names of the stars and the behaviour of the moon.

If one of your interests lies in wildflife photography or even just happy holiday snaps it is of great benefit to be with Chris as, being a talented and skilled photographer himself, will take you through the steps to achieve the best shot.

Chris and his wife, Tamsin, make a formidable team to be on safari because of their varied strengths and talents.
