BESPOKE TRAVEL

What does a tailor-made safari really mean?

It means your trip starts with you, not a brochure. There are no set departure dates, no group you have to fit in with and no compromises on the things that matter most.

Whether you dream of watching the Great Migration, walking with Maasai guides, trekking with gorillas, boating down the Zambezi or exploring the Sri Lanka at your speed. I design every details around how you like to travel.

And because I’ve spent a decade living and working in the safari industry as well as a decade booking travel, my advice comes from first-hand experience, not a booking screen.

THE PROCESS

How planning your tailor-made safari works

Planning a safari can feel overwhelming. Here’s how I make it simple, personal and enjoyable, every step of the way.

01

Let’s talk

We start with a relaxed, no obligation chat, on the phone, video call or if you’re based in Jersey over coffee.

04

Book with confidence

I secure your camps, flights, transfers and any entrance fees and permits required. Your booking is made through Wild Paths Ltd and is fully financially protected.

02

Your personal proposal

I design a day-by-day itinerary just for you, with notes as to why i’ve chosen it, and clear pricing.

05

Get ready to go

Before you leave, you’ll receive your travel documents, a detailed itinerary and practical advice on packing, visas and what to expect, so you can simply look forward to it.

03

Refine it together

Swap a camp, add a beach stay, slow the pace down. We fine-tune every detail until it fees exactly right, with no pressure and no rush

06

I’m with you all the way

While you’re away I’m just a WhatsApp message away. If a flight changes or plans need adjusting, i’ll sort it, and i’ll be there to heal all your stories when you’re home

YOUR TRIP, YOUR WAY

Safaris designed around the way your travel

Every traveller is different. If you’re not yet sure what your looking for, explore the safari type that most suits you for inspiration

GROUP TRAVEL HOSTED BY ME

Women’s Group Walking Safari

On foot you notice everything: fresh tracks in the dust, the alarm call of a francolin, the true scale of an elephant. Walking is where my heart is and I love bringing link minded ladies together for an adventure of a lifetime (with plenty of comfort..)

Guest Feedback

“Just returned from an unbelievable trip to Africa. Kim did not miss a beat. There was a couple of last minute changes, one with a flight when we were in Namibia. Kim just sent me a WhatsApp and it was all sorted, we didn’t have to worry about a thing”

~Gill & Mike, Namibia, Botswana & South Africa 

“Kim really is the safari and Africa expert, and i’m so glad we booked the trip we did with her. It was such a special holiday and one we’ll never forget.”

~Le Sueur's, Kenya 

“We booked an 11-night trip to Kenya through Kim and it was honestly the most amazing holiday - one I would happily do all over again and would highly, highly recommend!”

~Sophie, Kenya
