John Moller coined the phrase “walks back in time” many years ago for his favorite style of safari. Nothing puts one in touch with Africa so well as spending the cool hours of the day on foot: far away from roads and vehicles, and enjoying the sights and sounds and smells of nature, with broad vistas of Africa all around.

For people who enjoy walking, and want to experience Africa the way the explorers did, this is the perfect style of safari, and John Moller is the perfect guide for it. John’s 30 year’s experience as a top professional hunter, guarantees that he is not only knowledgeable about the natural history of Africa, but he is also superbly qualified to handle any surprises that traveling on foot through Africa entails.

John has a rare combination of qualities: he is a fun traveling companion; always ready for a laugh and always happy to share a drop or two of whiskey at night around the campfire, but he is also one of the best-qualified  amateur ‘bush doctors’ in East Africa.

Our walking safaris are conducted on private wildlife concessions or remote nature reserves, where we get away from roads and people, but still have easy logistical access to ‘back-up’ if we need it. We recommend at least 3-4 days out walking with our comfortable mobile camps ready and waiting for you each night, and a vehicle available in areas where we wish to photograph large mammals up close.

A walking safari can be the perfect way to start your safari; get the limbs loosened up after too long in the office, and get your soul back after too long in the big city, or it can be the finale of another great African safari.

Our ‘Walks Back in Time’ will take you back to a time in Africa almost forgotten, and help you re-discover a place in your soul you will never want to leave.
