A different way to experience wildlife photography safaris in Africa
I’m Dan Peel, a professional safari guide with over 18 years of experience working across Africa.
My approach is built around understanding animal behaviour, anticipating movement, and positioning correctly - long before the moment happens.
My background is in professional guiding, not just photography.
The focus is not only on finding wildlife, but on understanding behaviour, anticipating movement, and being in position before the moment happens.
Over the years, I’ve spent thousands of hours working with leopards and other predators, particularly in Laikipia - one of the most unique wildlife environments in Africa.
Every safari is built around this experience, taking a more considered and ethical approach to wildlife viewing and photography.
Photography Safaris
These safaris are designed around time in the field, not rigid itineraries.
Small groups, flexible approach, and a strong focus on wildlife behaviour and photographic positioning.
Focused on one of the most unique wildlife experiences in Africa, these safaris are built around consistent access to melanistic leopards in Laikipia.
Years of experience in this region allow for a deeper understanding of behaviour and movement, creating rare and extended photographic opportunities.
Predator-Focused Safaris
Designed around time spent with lions, leopards, cheetah and other key predators in high-density ecosystems, these safaris focus on behaviour, interaction, and positioning to create stronger photographic opportunities.
