Never have we been more excited to track painted wolves in Zimbabwe, learned more about the translocation of elephants in Malawi, or discovered just how ready we are for our next safari adventure...
African safaris are often top of our travel bucket lists. Whether in Kenya, Tanzania, or further afield to Zimbabwe, Mozambique or beyond, there are many different countries with a variety of safari types, price points and incredible wildlife to see up close.
So, when planning a trip, where do you begin? That very question sparked the idea for our African safari reader event. Wanderlust readers, safari first-timers, travellers searching for their next safari adventure and some of our top tour ops gathered together for an evening of inspiration and trip-planning, plus the chance to hear life-long safari devotee Sue Watt's first ever travel talk!
