“Wild Wanderings”

A safari with Charles Brightman - Professional Safari Guide and award-winning conservationist

There are so many facets to a successful safari but having an experienced, knowledgeable, and personable Professional Guide is a must. An appreciation and understanding of the natural world and all her creatures great and small, gives you the opportunity to move at the very perfect pace of nature.

A wild wander with Charles demands that you throw out all the clutter of urban life and tune into the African bush. To its unique sounds and smells, the textures, temperatures, and colours. Engaging all five senses and sometimes even tapping into a sixth. A chance to experience the very survival, cycles, and ancient lore of all the flora and fauna of Africa, through all the seasons - much like our ancestors did before the white noise of a modern world.

With 35 years of qualified safari experience and fascinating fireside stories, Charles offers an unprecedented half day adventure into the Zambezi National Park - his very own back yard.
Charles will have you enthralled not only with the encyclopaedic knowledge, but also his passion and love for what he does, with a seasoning of humour and gruff gentleness. This safari is ideal for the keener traveller wishing to gain a deeper appreciation for the beauty of the wilderness environment.

July was an exceptional month for Art of Africa. Travel is back with a contagious energy and attitude for adventure. From multi-generational art tours at the village, to bachelor parties at the Palm River Hotel, to painting with the elephants at the Wild Horizons Wallow, we certainly covered the spectrum of creativity. This also means employment and revenue for local artists and residents. Art and travel for the win!
