This was my first trip with Don & Sharon and we had a superb time at 3 of the best camps in the Luangwa. The sightings were amazing, and Don sent me his favourite images to share. He says he kept back some that had [...]

Kathy & Gordon (Phox Images) travelled with me again this year in South Luangwa, but first, they took a self-drive tour in Namibia. Check out their brilliant video of the whole 5-week trip here. The South Luangwa part begins at about 6:00 minutes. Thanks for [...]
