Jamie – Co-Founder & Sales & Marketing Director

There is not much in the ocean that Jamie hasn’t swam with; we are just lucky that he chose Africa to concentrate on. After five years in the Household Cavalry Regiment of the British Army, Jamie took his career underwater, working all over the world and achieving one of the highest PADI instructor gradings. Tanzania grabbed Jamie when he ran a marine research camp on Mafia Island. These days he is in charge of spreading the African Space message, when he is not found somewhere off Aliwal Shoal.

Mark – Co-Founder & Managing Director

Mark has been trying to avoid Africa for years, but without much luck as he keeps ending up there. First encountering the magic of the continent as an 18 year old biological survey research assistant in Tanzania’s Kilombero Valley, he went onto train as a field guide, specializing in elephants, in South Africa. Working in positions in NGO and commercial positions across Africa, he is now tasked with making sure everything works – whilst dreaming of elephants and distant African mountains.

The Great Migration is truly one of the wonders of the natural world. Witnessing this event in the company of guides who will share with you the stories behind the mass movement is an opportunity few are lucky enough to encounter. However, being a natural event, the extent and location of the migration cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, this itinerary includes a number of distinctive and enthralling locations in addition to a period focused on travelling with the massed herds.
