What is it really like to go on safari as a solo female traveller? In this episode, Shelby shares her firsthand experience of travelling and experiencing safari as a woman travelling on her own. She breaks down what you can actually expect, from arriving at the lodge and joining game drives to dining alone, meeting other guests, staying safe, and navigating the experience without a travel companion. We also get into some of the things that are rarely talked about when it comes to solo safari travel, including whether it can feel isolating, how easy it is to connect with other guests, what the lodge experience is really like, and why travelling solo doesn't necessarily mean experiencing safari alone. Whether you're considering your first solo safari or simply wondering what the experience is like, Shelby shares an honest, firsthand look at the realities, little surprises and unforgettable moments that come with exploring Africa on your own.

What Does a Safari Travel Agency Actually Do? | The All Out Safaris Podcast What does a safari travel agency actually do, and why should you use one when planning your safari? In this episode of the All Out Safaris Podcast, Josh and Shelby break down what really happens behind the scenes when you book a safari through a specialist travel agency. Planning a safari can be far more complicated than simply choosing a lodge and booking a room. With hundreds of lodges, reserves, routes, flight options and different safari experiences to choose from, knowing what works best for you can make all the difference. Josh and Shelby explain how a specialist safari travel agency helps you choose the right destinations and lodges, build the right itinerary, coordinate transfers and flights, manage bookings and availability, and ultimately take the stress and uncertainty out of planning your trip. They also discuss why having someone who understands the destinations, lodges and safari industry can be particularly valuable when things don't go exactly according to plan. Whether you're planning your first African safari or you're a seasoned safari traveller, this episode explains why the right travel agency can be so much more than simply a booking middleman. 🌍 Plan your safari with All Out Safaris:https://www.alloutsafaris.com/ 📧 Email: [email protected] Listen to the All Out Safaris Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.

There is just something different about a leopard sighting. In this episode, we unpack why leopards are hands down our favourite animal to see on safari and why they never lose their magic, no matter how many times you have seen one. From their elusive nature and unmatched stealth to the heart racing build up of tracking them, leopards turn every sighting into a moment you will never forget. We talk about what makes them so special compared to the rest of the Big Five, why they are a photographer’s dream, and the emotional rush that comes with finally locking eyes with one in the wild. We also share personal stories from guiding and hosting safaris across South Africa, including the close calls, the golden light moments, and the sightings that still give us goosebumps. If you have ever felt your pulse spike when someone whispers, “There is a leopard here,” this episode is for you. Tune in as we talk about Africa’s most iconic ghost.

Does your gear really matter? Or is it all about skill?

Because at the end of the day, the best camera is the one you know how to use.
