From remembrance to wilderness — Rwanda is a jou

From remembrance to wilderness — Rwanda is a journey that touches both the heart and the soul.

My recent safari began at the Kigali Genocide Memorial, a place of reflection and resilience that tells the story of Rwanda’s past and the extraordinary strength of its people. From there we travelled east to Akagera National Park, where savannah plains and shimmering lakes are once again home to lions, elephants and rhinos.

Heading south into the ancient rainforests of Nyungwe, we tracked chimpanzees through the misty canopy before winding north along the spectacular shores of Lake Kivu — one of Africa’s great lakes.

Our journey ended in the Virunga Massif and the Volcanoes National Park, where a morning spent with the mountain gorillas remains one of the most profound wildlife experiences on earth.

Rwanda truly is a land of renewal, beauty and extraordinary wildlife.

Please be in touch to book this extraordinary adventure with us.

Our last horseback safari in the Mara of 2025 wrap

Our last horseback safari in the Mara of 2025 wrapped up with a bang — big cats on the move, great herds rumbling across the plains, and endless open wilderness as far as the eye can see. The horses are now home and free, recharging for the next wild ride - this time in north Kenya. Here’s to adrenaline, open horizons, and answering the call of the wild again soon.

Laughter that echoed across the Mara — from youn

Laughter that echoed across the Mara — from young riders to seasoned explorers.
Days spent riding alongside elephants and big cats, evenings under canvas and candlelight, and sunsets melting into the horizon beneath the acacia trees.
The safari horses were pure magic, the landscapes unforgettable, and the friendships? For life. Grateful for every moment.

Dad has written his book. What a remarkable life.

Dad has written his book. What a remarkable life. This is a ‘must’ read for anyone vaguely interested in Kenya, safari, and of a true pioneer of riding horses in Africa. How grateful I am that Pa has written his memoirs and allowed us to also live a truly unique life in our beloved Kenya. Stepping Out can be purchased on Amazon. Below is a recent review of the book.

Tony Church’s autobiography is a fast-paced account of his adventurous and remarkable life in Kenya covering an eighty year period from colonial times to the present day. Starting with his early childhood on the slopes of Mount Kenya and schooldays in Nairobi, followed by his call-up to military service with the Kenya Regiment, his memoirs go on to cover a brief period of uncertainty when he was away from his childhood homeland until he was able to secure a job back in Kenya running a tea estate in the Nandi Hills. Before long he was granted Kenyan citizenship and became dedicated to making a life for himself and his family in the newly independent nation which he clearly loves. With its magnificent scenery, Indian Ocean coastline and incredible wildlife, Kenya was fast becoming a popular tourism destination and it is as a Safari Guide that the author really makes his mark, going on to pioneer the concept of riding safaris to take tourists out on horseback to explore the country and view the wildlife, staying overnight in mobile tented camps out in the African bush. The author is a born raconteur and his tales of safari life are entertaining and engrossing, brimming with humour while giving an insight into the many challenges and dramas faced by safari outfitters such as his which uphold the principles of ethical low-impact tourism geared to conservation of wildlife, taking visitors off the beaten track to get close to nature. This is an absorbing and heartfelt personal memoir that evokes the grandeur of Kenya’s landscapes and magnificent wildlife while celebrating the spirit of those like the author who feel privileged to call it home.

Eight unforgettable nights under canvas — old friends and new. 🌅🐎

A heartfelt thank you to Wendy of Horsing Around International, who has been riding with us since 2008, for bringing together such a wonderful group of humans — mothers and daughters, first-timers to Africa, and adventurers in search of something truly wild and off the beaten track.

We shared golden sunsets and cantered across endless plains, watched Africa’s iconic cats, picnicked beneath ancient fig trees, and as always, we give thanks to our legendary horses who carried us safely across the wilds of Kenya.

Eight unforgettable nights traversing the Mara eco

Eight unforgettable nights traversing the Mara ecosystem through the ears of a horse. Riding alongside old friends and new, forging bonds beneath endless Mara skies. We rode alongside towering giraffes, saw elephants in their thousands and were lucky enough to spot all three big cats in one epic safari. Horses and crew are on flying form.

Our latest safari through the Masai Mara was nothi

Our latest safari through the Masai Mara was nothing short of extraordinary. With the season in full swing, the Mara is at her most breathtaking—lush, alive, and teeming with wildlife. From running through golden grasslands to tracking elephants and lions, every moment felt charged with adventure. We shared stories by the fire, spotted countless birds and cats, and rode alongside an incredible group of guests who brought energy, humour, and heart to the experience.

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting our dear friends from Estancia Los Potreros (Argentina) for the fourth time.

A week filled with unforgettable rides, breathtaking wildlife, and the bond of shared passions — fine horses, good food, wild places, and vibrant cultures. Until 2027 …… we can’t wait to ride together again.
