Photo Journal: The Best of Southern Africa
Wild Again guests, Brent and Mike, shared with us their phenomenal photographic collection from a recent trip to Southern Africa. From the wildlife-rich savannas of the Lowveld and the majestic Blyde River Canyon to the coastal dune forests of the East Coast, their adventure was filled with close-up encounters, breath-taking vistas and and extraordinary wildlife encounters. The hardest part was selecting which images to share with you! What struck them most was the sheer variety of life - from the unassuming dung beetle to the majestic rhino, every corner of these ecosystems teems with life and wonder.

These are our eight favourite photographic safari lodges in Africa. Each one has a strong photography culture - with expert teams, equipment, and a mindset designed to help you get the shot. They understand perfect light, patience, and why you might skip sundowners for a silhouetted elephant at dusk or have dinner brought to you in the bush to follow a pride on the hunt.

The Wild Again team has 57 years collective guiding experience. This means many hours spent immersed in African wilderness watching seasons change, territories shift, life and death play out and ultimately, multiple mind-blowing moments unfold. We have compiled a selection of some of these that we were lucky enough to capture on camera...
Founder, Private Guide and Safari Planner
Being born the daughter of David Attenborough (it’s true but he’s probably not the one you’re thinking of) I don’t believe I ever really had much choice about what direction my life would take. I grew up in the city of Durban, South Africa but for as long as I can remember nature has called to me. Whenever I could I would escape to the forests around my home barefoot and in search of chameleons and red duiker to befriend.
And so in 2010, after completing my Journalism and Media Studies degree, I followed that calling to the wilds of Southern Africa to become a game ranger. I planned to stay for a year but it turned into ten. During that time, I worked at Phinda Private Game Reserve, Ngala Private Game Reserve and Londolozi Game Reserve, some of South Africa’s most prestigious lodges and immersed myself in the natural world. I learnt to track animals with Zulu and Shangaan trackers and spent as much time as I could on foot approaching animals with my guests. I also put my photojournalism degree to use by becoming a specialist photographic guide. I travelled to Botswana, Namibia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Uganda, Israel, Jordan, Egypt, India and throughout South America in search of wildlife. My greatest adventure was living in Gabon training local guides for the WWF and Smithsonian Institute, where we spent weeks at a time living like early nomads in the dense and remote coastal forests, fulfilling a life-long dream of tracking and habituating wild gorillas. Seeing how embodied and present animals are inspired me to begin practicing yoga. I am a qualified vinyasa and yin teacher and spent six months training under a Hatha master in Boulder, Colorado. I am also a certified Martha Beck life coach. With this mixture of knowledge, interests and skills, I started Wild Again to help others really experience the wild places I know and love so much. Through my specialised Wellness Safaris that incorporate yoga, meditation, mindfulness and personalised life coaching I continue to grow more conscious safaris that return people to nature and to themselves. As we re-wild ourselves we hear the earth, our common mother, again. It is only then that we can co-create with her healing.
