WHAT TO EXPECT

You’ve come to know hosts Eric, Nikki, Shaun, Barney, Japie and Roan through our exciting WILDwatch Live / WildEarth initiative.

Now you can meet them in person on a private Zoom virtual session, which you can either enjoy exclusively or you can send the link to five of your friends and family to join.

This virtual experience is booked on a special request basis, and is in English. It includes a debrief on the wildlife sightings and the opportunity to learn more about your guide and safaris in general.

10% of your purchase total will go towards the Africa Foundation (our community development partner) COVID-19 fund-raising initiative.

The remainder of your purchase total will go towards assisting our guides to make up their lost gratuities, as well as funding crucial habitat maintenance, sustainability and conservation initiatives.

Pay for the experience via your debit/credit card or PayPal. You also have the choice to split the “bill” with your friends/ family (up to 5 others) by inviting them to share your experience.

We will then send you an email with a personal link that will explain how to connect with your guide on the date of your booking. We’ll also ask you a few questions to help your ranger focus on your areas of interest.

You’ll connect with your guide through video-conferencing software called Zoom. We recommend you download Zoom onto your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet, and test it before your booking.

You will need to have a stable internet connection – Zoom recommends a connection speed of 2mbps up/down.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO BRING?

• Your bird/mammal book
• Your notepad with questions
• Either a cup of morning coffee/hot chocolate/tea or your favourite afternoon sundowner cocktail
