Colin Bell, a tourism / wildlife specialist, has spent the last 30 years living and working throughout the more remote corners of Southern Africa. Colin was the founder of Wilderness Safaris, which grew to become one of the world's foremost eco-tourism companies, managing some of Africa's most pristine and prime wildlife land on the sub-continent. In early 2006, Colin retired from the company he formed and has teamed up with friends to create a new venture that is taking on projects within Africa and the Indian Ocean.

Mark Read is the Chairman of the World Wildlife Fund in South Africa and is on the board of WWF international.  Mark has to be one of Southern Africa's top amateur botanists and nothing gives him greater pleasure than wandering around the forests of Southern Africa, walking stick in hand, 'botanising' to his heart's content. He is widely travelled throughout the continent and one of his favourite places is The Selinda Reseve.

Paul Harris, CEO of First Rand Bank and fellow adventurer, got inspired by the vision and direction of the team starting up a new safari, eco tourism company, led by Colin and Dereck, and has embraced the excitement and growth of this partnership. As an outdoor enthusiast, avid conservationists and sportsman, Paul brings his own unique insights to the team. Paul is our sounding board and the one who often reminds everyone of what it is that people come to Africa for: that sense of adventure, the thrill of seeing Africa's great plains stretched out, unblemished by human habitation and the drive to go to those places where no man has walked before.

Humphrey Gumpo - Specialist Guide Over the last ten years I have been very privileged to be in different positions in remote and unique places of Africa allowing me to learn and understand the fascinating behavior and interactions of wildlife and birdlife in these areas. Inheriting a rich cultural knowledge from fellow Africans that has been practiced for generations has been a direct result of this and taking my first step of many in learning the art of photography was inevitable. Having worn both hats as camp manager and professional guide, hosting guests and ensuring that their interests are pursued as far as possible has become my way of life.
An African safari is often a once in a lifetime journey and my goal is to elevate the experience that guests are awarded in travelling to these mostly well conserved, wildlife areas of Africa.
