As an ardent ornithologist with a passion for natural history and all things “wildlife”, Simon travelled the globe birding in his late teens visiting Africa, the Middle East and all over Europe. Born in England, this passion led to more serious studies gaining an Hons Degree in Zoology with Ecology from London University at the end of the 70’s. Following an advertising career in London, the constraints of the big city somewhat curtailed his travelling.Jumping at the chance to relocate to Kenya in the mid 80’s this allowed him to combine his then professional career, with time to seriously explore Africa. Gaining professional guide qualifications through the KPSGA, Simon followed his heart in leading many natural history expeditions through Kenya, Tanzania ,Uganda & Rwanda. Sharing these privileged bush experiences with many guests from overseas has continued with planning ,organizing & guiding wildlife safaris full time over the last 20 years in East Africa. Simon has been directly involved in supporting key conservation projects in Laikipia, the Mara & Kenya forests to ensure that key habitats & their unique diverse fauna & flora will remain for generations ahead ;habitats & experiences that have given him, his family, friends & safari guests so much pleasure to remember.
