Their guides are some of the best in the industry. They represent the company and act as ambassadors and ensure that excellent standards are maintained. Wildlife consider the time, training and investment in them as one of the most important things they do. Motivated, passionate and African born and bred, they try to place teams and guides with varying strengths and interests to make a balanced team per vehicle. They also operate their own annual month long training course for both old and new guides. Excellent flora, fauna, wildlife knowledge is a given, but on this training exercise they brush up on the fine details like African legends, folklore, the ability to prepare varied and imaginative special diet meals, and most importantly the character skills to be excellent leaders, interpreters and companions in Africa.
