Thank you for your interest in our Wildlife Painting Safaris. Our itinerary depends on clients coordinated preferences. Each safari will be scheduled as a result of the combined interests, travel time and price range of each member of the party. We will stay for three weeks ... you can join for as long as your pocket and your time allow.
We
hope you will join us. Your hosts are Gaelle Hamp-Adams and Barbara Jane
Boulter, both raised in Africa with a lifelong experience in local travel. We
are painters, artists and safari organizers and use the best safari outfitters
and travel companies to furnish us with accommodation, travel arrangements to
locations off-the-beaten-track that are interesting, colourful, ethnic, or with
abundant wildlife, enabling artistically minded people like yourselves to
appreciate and absorb the beauty of Africa at a gentle and comfortable
pace.
Price is subject to the number of participants. This safari is for every artist, literati, thespian, philosopher, photographer or enlightened traveler. We welcome busy professionals and lazy travelers alike, whatever your age, from 19 – 91 years old to join us. This is a rare opportunity to go on safari in Africa for a reasonable price and enjoy traveling with people who want to see varied aspects of the country without hurry or hassle. A little of every accommodation style from tented luxury to a secluded beach hut over an three week period ... and you are welcome to join for a few days or as long as you like during the safari. Please contact us with your preferred dates and travel ideas. The organisation of each safari is undertaken to suit the travelers.
