Safari Guide Profile: Mark Tennant

Mark Tennant

" best guides = best safaris ~ a bad guide in the best camp will ruin your safari."

Mark Tennant

Mark has been a guide in Botswana and helped to developed our guide training and wildlife experience for the first 5 years.

His passion for birds and the African wilderness developed while he worked for the Vulture Study Group in the early 1980's. In 1991 he decided to move permanently into the bush where he worked at Phinda in Northern Zululand. As part of the team he was involved in staff training and worked developing the guest experience there.

Mark is a professional photographer and his work has earned him a number of international photographic awards. Coupled with his intimate knowledge of animal behaviour, he is regularly called upon by international film crews to assist in the production of wildlife documentaries. He has been the subject of a TV series as well.

Besides wildlife, photography and birds, Mark is a knowledgeable about frogs and butterflies. These interests and background makes him a highly informative and entertaining guide.
