Learn what it takes to become a safari guide in this journey across South Africa. Begin by exploring the Cradle of Humankind. This UNESCO World Heritage site has the world’s largest concentration of human ancestral remains and is where the earliest primate was discovered. Explore areas with active fossil digs and see why life blossomed in this part of the globe. Then travel to a game reserve to dive into a junior ranger program. Study the local ecosystem at the expansive Karongwe Game Reserve. Trek through safari areas looking for lions, elephants, white rhinos and more. See the importance of local plants, water sources and other environmental elements. By program’s end, you’ll have learned the basics of being a ranger and have a newfound appreciation for the magnificence of the animal kingdom.
“I didn’t think seeing an animal in person would be that different from going to the zoo or looking at a picture of them. But it definitely was a totally different experience… Seeing animals roll around in the mud like water buffalo was almost hypnotizing.”
