Design your safari with Stephen,an experienced and highly skilled consultant,who has had one of his tours featured in National Geographic’s “Best of Africa”.
Stephen also guided the National Geographic Journalist on a personally designed tour for the lead South African article in the 2010 World Cup Edition.
As the owner,creator and the one responsible for many of the punctuation errors on this site,you are ensured of receiving the full attention of someone who cares that you have a full,memorable experience in South Africa.
As I am in South Africa so often,I ensure that all goes well,and you will have a network of support,for any type of emergency 24/7 at your disposal.
While I am in the country,I travel around, seeking out new possibilities,checking in,seeing whats new and available.
I do educational s provided by the operators,in addition to my own travels,and I attend the yearly International travel show.
Stephen also owns Rogue Travel in Ashland, Oregon. Rogue Travel is a ARC certified agency, incorporated in Oregon, and City of Ashland registered.
This means we have the ability to issue airline tickets( need to have a surety bond and be certified in order to do this)
Stephen has established a specialty in providing unique rural cultural/arts/craft experiences,and as such we support sustainable tourism in those rural areas.

In return we obtain local updates,insights,special rates,and unique packages.We offer custom designed packages for Singles, Couples, Families,Groups,and Incentive Travel.
What we offer,is more than just a brochure?We design your trip according to your needs,wants,budget,lifestyle and vacation time.You can use one of our pre planned itineraries or we can piece small trips together to create your own dream South Africa tour.
As we cover all the areas of Southern Africa, we can be creative as we want to,as we are not set to any type of tour other than what you want.
We purposely do not have rates on our site as rates change with seasons, availability, contracts change, etc.We like to quote updated prices.Just ask us.
For Internal South Africa/Southern Africa or Africa Safari travel,we do all of the ticketing.
