safari guides

Bush tour leaders

Safari guides are professionals who lead wildlife excursions in natural habitats, typically in African game reserves and national parks.

They combine expert knowledge of animal behavior, tracking skills, and local terrain with responsibility for tourist safety: Our safari guide spotted a leopard in the underbrush before anyone else saw it.

The term extends to guides in any wilderness setting where wildlife viewing is the primary purpose.
